"Comedian Jim Gaffigan joked about former President Donald Trump's infamous Access Hollywood tape in front of the ex-president and former first lady Melania Trump on Thursday.
Less than one month before Donald Trump defeated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, controversy erupted when The Washington Post published the 2005 audio recording of Trump boasting to Access Hollywood correspondent Billy Bush that he was able to "grab" women by their genitals because he was a celebrity."

Everybody has to admit Kamala Harris's bit was garbage

[@FusionDeveloper]

Yes. It was gross, but I'm still voting for her. However if this was how all public image of Harris was, with this other lady always talking about smelling her arm pits, I don't know that I would vote for her.

[@nowhere529]

Not just garbage but insulting to Catholics with that ridiculous character she had in it.

[@StukaJoe]

The White Dudes for Harris joke was brutal!!!🤣

[@gutz1982]

At least Trump showed up.

[@jamesbomd3503]

You've got to admire Chuck Schumer,,,,,,, who came dressed as the Penguin😆😂🤣

[@ospididious]

My parents were both in car sales. Every time I hear Trump speak, I'm taken back to those times, surrounded by my parents scummy car sales friends and co-workers. They all thought they were hot shit. They all thought they were loved by all. They all thought they were just such good people and so were all the people around them. They all talked mad shit about each other behind their backs and would screw each other out of a paycheck every chance they got. It was an educational experience to say the least.

[@Matty-o9p]

Gaffigan compared Kamala's prerecorded vid to his daughter's piano recital 😂

[@Omegax35]

Should have covered Trump talking about Chuck Schumer. Some of that was actually funny.

[@imtheonlykit]

Of course Melania wasn't smiling. She was out with her husband!

[@Adrianafaith123]

That's what I was thinking!

[@Paul-82]

Melania in her head: "Wait until after they finish laughing and then smile. Do not smile, must not smile."

[@whatintarnationisgoingon]

@imtheonlykit Melania rarely smiles. Russians have a different type of demeanor. Could you imagine her cackling like Kamala? It's just not her personality. Quit making it into something it's not.

[@PureSparkles22]

Trumps the last person who should be joking about other people's affair

[@shadowjudge921]

Trump has the mentality of a school boy who craves attention. So he pokes fun at others thinking it's funny. Everyone else views it as bullying.

[@Missunderstood103]

First thing I think when I see Donald at an event is "How'd he remove the ankle monitor?" It's just what he is.

[@richmyster84]

It's telling how much Francesca, a "female comedienne", liked the Molly Shannon skit. She really adds to the cliche' that there are no funny female comediennes.

[@jamesbomd3503]

I tuned in to see Anna's reaction Because she gets Donald Trump's humour even through she doesn't agree with him She gets him And that always Tickles me, As my mama used to tickle my feet as a child And places a warm smile on my face.😊 Anna is box office

[@JollyJumper-c7h]

At 1:16, notice John saying 'Melania wasn't smiling at all'. 😔 I HAVE to come to the aid of Melania here and protect her a little bit, because this will be a HUGE misunderstanding: Melania wasn't NOT laughing because she lacks a sense of humor... Melania isn't laughing at all because she literally CAN'T, because the 7 layers of car paint on her face would crack.

[@Retired.at.40.Bored.at.50]

Harris missed the only opportunity she had to trash Trump and show a more funnier relatable side. She is already having trouble explaining her policies. Fran can't be a comedian. Trump has naturally good timing and was genuinely funny. TYT left out the best parts. 😮😮

[@stevenp25100]

She's not funny nor reliable

[@cms1381]

No reason to humanize or normalize him.

[@Retired.at.40.Bored.at.50]

@@cms1381 it's just facts. Americans loved Trump before he became a Republican. Ignoring it won't make it go away. People can relate to Trump because he makes the effort. Even if you don't like him, he makes you laugh sometimes. Kamala doesn't have the personality to reach a wide group of people. That's why she doesn't belong in this race.

[@Tom-xn8nn]

When Trump talks to normal middle class Americans he' seems at ease and comfortable .kamala not so much

[@PureSparkles22]

Melana was NOT happy about that joke. She won't attend any more events from now on

Can't get over that people think Trump is funny......🤦‍♂

[@dustinsindledecker154]

Well he unintentionally funny. But when he tells actual jokes he is really terrible at it.

[@Pattern-Recognition]

Well, Trump was only a little bit self-depreciating. Harris wasn't at all. She only made fun of Catholics. How smart that was in front of this audience is another question. To me, Trump did a far better job than Harris. Another nail in her coffin - unfortunately. It's not that Trump is winning -- it's that Harris is losing. She never should have become a candidate. On that I agree with Biden.The world will pay the price for Harris' deficiencies. And it's not that the Democrats wouldn't have much stronger candidates.

[@AntiGlobalist-o1s]

It is FUN to watch these 3 liberals COPE after Harris blew a golden opportunity to go to the Al Smith dinner, instead doing a dumb unfunny skit. Meantime Trump going to the dinner and making good jokes. The guy on the left was at least dead honest about it. Bravo to him.

[@Jkrogs18]

[@reddirtprincess]

If you get rid of TDS, it was pretty funny. I wish you all could be objective. He is literally there with the people trying to take him down and bankrupt him.

[@stevenp25100]

They didn't play the tim walz joke bc they know it's funny and true

[@mart9898]

Franceska's comedy must be a snooze fest if she thinks indictment joke was Trump's best. He had way better lines. It's on Harris that Trump got to present himself like a Netflix special comedian and she was not there to bring him down from his peak. She could have killed like him if she had a few good writers....instead her absence turned into a punch line. Her consultants suck...

[@keepinitreal6547]

She wasn't there because I don't believe she could handle being up on stage for 30 minutes telling jokes. She would probably be laughing and cackling so much, you wouldn't even be able to understand what she was saying. It would be like in the first "Joker" movie when he tries stand-up and he starts uncontrollably laughing.

[@ScottSmith99-c5p]

At least he showed up

[@Corey-ju2wl]

Really... does that really count considering he was the only President ever to not be there during the next one's inauguration. And all the White House Correspondant's dinner he didn't do

[@WeirdenGilling]

I would never vote for either of these asses but part of me wants Trump to win just to watch people with TDS have epic meltdowns

[@SocalHashman]

I feel the same way about republicans when harris wins and republicans start crying and whining like the liberals they complain about and thow a huge fit and break into tears on the street 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Jim Gaffigan's final comments weren't jokey & he sadly gave his support to Trump. And people don't care (won't consider) that Trump backed out of testifying, debating, the 60 Minutes interview, on & on after promising too. But they will hold Harris accountable for not being at this....

Interesting takes! All 3 panelists had some differing opinions. I gotta agree that Trump had some good lines in there, although they were sprinkled with the usual bizarre moments. Kamala unfortunately used an outdated character that most people found to be, quite frankly, a bit on the annoying side (and the armpit smell bit is such toilet humor), and when you compare to Trump's few zingers, he clearly did a better job at this than Kamala. With that said, who performs better at this kind of stuff means absolutely nothing to me and my vote. 🤷🏻‍♂️
