You can see how self assured she is by the way she holds the mike. Nobody does that!!! Love her ❤️

[@theliberalthinker3308]

Of course she is. She's a seasoned comedian, not a newcomer.

[@shawna1278]

I love her too! ...but i do wonder how she holds a fork. 🤪

[@Jesse__H]

She's funny! Her other bits on YT are better tho imo

[@Linusrox123]

Her writing AND delivery - both just fantastic ... like Tina Fey. She needs to work on and write a show. That beautiful subtlety makes is tough to watch comics who just don't have it and really on going big.

[@caribqueen63]

Funny as hell!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣💕💕💕

[@kckgirl78]

😂😂😂

[@galeweaver790]

I think she's related to Wanda Sykes. She's too good to not be.

[@andybaldman]

She sounds just like her to my ear. Like if she wanted to do an impression of her, she’d nail it. The cadence is there.

[@menosproblemos6993]

Fel like something good was coming after that last cut

[@abplusfive]

This gal is funny, but Obama was in over his head.

[@lipby]

Greatest president of my 51 years on Earth, and it is isn't even close.

[@abplusfive]

@@lipby He's "all hat and no cattle".

[@dxgi3737]

Love you F obama

[@howardcohen6817]

Well, I'm happy for you. I play a game from time to time and look for a possible partner for a single person. No, don't get me wrong, I'm not playing matchmaker, now. Just trying to figure out what types go together. I even explain why a superficial matching up won't work out in the end. And in two years of playing this game with you in my head, I could not find one single guy who could be a remotely good match for you. Now isn't that sweet of me? What does this say about the guys I know?

[@marcblank3036]

She is way more beautiful and kinder than MO

[@mrpicky1868]

"how can i destroy her" is actually totally women's mentality when they meet a guy

[@lipby]

Poor baby

[@benmavinn1666]

🤣🤣🤣

[@mjmaccabee7252]

She nearly save this regressive bit with the last line. Almost, but not quite. I've seen her be funnier; this was kind of trite stuff.

[@michaelperkins3003]

Don't look to the Democrats for a positive role model of any kind, you'll be disappointed.

[@ekdaufin1485]

She is talented but depressing BC of the sexism. Reinforcing judging women on their number of sex partners when men are praised for that. Love the Obama’s but Michelle is so full of weight stigma. Blaming women for looking but men praised for that. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Some of her other stuff I’ve seen is not like this thank goodness. Also you have natural hair and the country was not having that. Michelle never wanted to be a First Lady. I know, jokes but too much women sexuality shaming. Stop that please.

[@moekage5455]

Bruh shut up😂

[@Efbeeiii]

@@moekage5455 no

[@jerryholbrook13]

Don't listen we don't have the right to oppress peoples speech that's oppressive and anti freedom.

[@mackfielder]

Maybe the biggest diff between them is that Marina may actually be a real woman. Plus, am guessing she's using the true name she was given at birth!

[@poe_slaw]

Just admit Michelle Obama’s arms make you feel inadequate, no need to dance around it

[@357CLOUDY]

Man shut up... she got 2 girls. Michelle is a fine woman. Everyone wants to be funny, aint.

[@mouseshadow5828]

She would need surgery.
