British Comedians vs AMERICA! | Have I Got News For You

[@rbarnett3200]

"Supposing we hit the body. With a tremendous, er, whether it's ultraviolet or a very powerful light...and then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body? Which you can do either through the skin or, er, in some other way...right? And I see the disinfectant. That knocks it out. In a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that? By injection inside or er..." This isn't just the stupidest thing said by an elected American president this is the stupidest thing said by anyone ever.

[@billberndtson]

He was signaling to Putin to nuke us, probably.

[@billberndtson]

With the possible exception of "I'm voting for Trump."

[@TERMINATIONBLISS08]

There's a British show called "Faking It: Tears of a Crime" which has experts in psychology, body language, and speech. They did a special on Trump. I would recommend watching it.

[@harbscantina]

Ian really hit it on the head with what it looks like in Trump Tower 🙂

Love "Dictator Chic"!

[@billberndtson]

As an American I want to say that Elon Musk is South African and not American. I want to say that because there are too many powerful Americans who embarrass and revolt me already.

[@bjarkih1977]

Isn't he an US citizen?

[@billberndtson]

@@bjarkih1977 Yeah. *sigh* That's why I only wanted to say it.

[@bradleybarnett9545]

​@@billberndtsonAs an Australian, it's bloody wonderful to be able to truthfully say that Rupert Murdoch is an American citizen aswell.

[@ThatGuy-he6lc]

[@bradleybarnett9545]

Elon Musk is not and never was "an inventor".

I am sure he is not concerned

[@gospelofrye6881]

@@georgerichardson964 He is clearly super concerned that people will not roll over and call him the greatest man alive. Telling people who won't advertise on X "go f**k yourselves' and then suing an industry group that monitors media and tells investors where not to advertise is probably peak insecurity, in 2024.

Hilarious that the Musk episode is long enough ago for them to have not heard of him

You can get the Complete Works of Shakespeare free online! 😂😂😂

Funny, knowledgeable & principled - what’s not to like?

[@synthonaplinth5980]

"Why couldn't we time the wedding to be in the middle in the night here, so the Americans could watch?" Can you imagine the public outcry in England had they broadcast the Royal Wedding at night? Thousands of people would have gotten a good night's sleep.

[@johnrowland3105]

It's because America presents its political figures and industrialists as something akin to godlike status. When, as you see here, their obvious flaws are laid bare for political lampooning that is not encouraged in America.

[@paulhammons7077]

As an American 😅😂 a joke is a joke 😊

As an American🇺🇲I agree!

[@damnheat2005]

It's tripe like this that reminds me why I stopped watching TV. 5+ years later, haven't missed it once. Highly recommended.

[@narvickdevil]

Nish kumar is as funny as joe wilkinson on 8 out of 10 cats does countdown, they're both as relevant as having a loud inappropriate fart at a funeral 😅

[@irenedow5665]

Can’t we just get to Europe by plane on time instead rockets in half an hour..

[@MrWayout74]

By show of likes or dislikes...Nish Kumar, funny?

[@rbarnett3200]

I feel kind of bad for Nish. He really really wants to be funny. But isn't. He seems like a nice guy and has a sense of humour, but he's very much not a comedian. I wanted to be a professional footballer when I was a kid. I love football. But I wasn't any good at it. I had enough self-awareness to realise that it was never going to happen and at best I could only ever hope to be mildly competent at it. Nish hasn't quite got to that level of self-awareness yet. Nice enough guy though.

[@anthonymiddleton9409]

No one finds Nish as funny as Nish does.

[@Ffinity]

Why do you care? Do you need validation?

[@richardrhodes5323]

No i don't find him funny in the slightest

[@davidkelly499]

One of those guys that knows the right people and keeps getting these gigs because of it. But he has toured so there must be a few thousand people in the UK that find him funny

[@irenedow5665]

Joke at very end about Trump not saying origins but instead oranges. Trump is thinking about colour of his suit in a few years. Ouch.What a joke that Trump instead is going for president again not jail.

[@brendasg155]

They're not comedians. They're cun.....

[@gigiroelant7299]

Versus America is a bad title. I can't stand Elon or Trump, America is not a singular entity. A lot of us hate them too!

I hold Farage and Trump in high regard. I have watched hundreds of hignfy over an extended period. And this is the first time Ive ever seen the players buttering up to the elites. The first time Ive not been ammused.

[@alfsmith4936]

Sleepwalking into fascism isn't a good habit.. Have you spoken to a doctor about your inner monologue yet?

[@josephkarl2061]

​@alfsmith4936 While he's there, he can talk about his gun fetish. Most people say 'amused', but this bloke likes his mirth with a bit more fire-power 👍

[@Paul_Ward]

Aww, that's a shame. They mock everyone, left or right. If you don't like hearing the truth through satire, maybe grow a thicker skin and remember that your heroes are nor anything like that.

[@nonegone7170]

"I hold Farage and Trump in high regard" Don't worry, some day we'll find a cure for your insanity.

[@hansakkerman2611]

Honest question: Why do you hold them in high regard? Besides which, both were born rich, how are they not "elites"?
