[@Darkhorde]

Yea, MrPinkroo just sit back, let Trumplestiltskin just do whatever he wants and have no checks and balances. See how fast we become WWII Germany. Think please before you talk. Would do us all alot of good. He does not support democracy, he supports dictatorships, hence why he fights with our democratic allies and is buddy buddy with our Dictator and communist rivals. As long as we show our voice and let him know how fucking stupid he is on a regular basis he cannot pull the wool over the nations eyes.

[@DraconasLyrr]

Part of Democracy is calling out stupid crap the leaders are doing when they do it, not just bending over and hoping they remember the lube.

As an American Muslim who believes Islam is long overdo for a reformation, I'd just like to say that Asra Nomani does not speak for all of us. As an American who's been tuned in to politics for a long time, I'd like to say that Asra Nomani seems to have little idea about what she's talking about. She's lucky that Issa was on there to make her look more reasoned, moderate, and knowledgeable by comparison.

[@zero62422002]

The panel was trying to have an adult conservation and Asra Nomani kept on telling them to play nice in her mother-like tone.

[@avedic]

Agreed. Asra Nomani talks a lot...in a simultaneously condescending _and_ overly-sympathetic tone, but the actual content and consequence of what she's saying is utterly vapid and vacant. It seems like any adult conversation just flies right over her head...and yet she's completely unaware of it. She's like the personification of those corny motivational posters with cliche empty feel-good jargon that _seems_ profound...but objectively isn't.

[@avedic]

Look at Asra Nomani's face starting @ *15:00* after Seth said _"...coming from the white house that's a big fucking problem."_ What *_is_* that expression on her face? Confusion? Bafflement? Medicated stupor? What? She is just _so strange_...especially on this episode. She just seemed.....medicated. Like mental molasses. It was just weird...

[@acdc2961]

zero62422002 she sounded so idiotic, all of these trump supporters dont have any intellect

[@ewanbrown8430]

She said we should accept a theory that the earth is flat? Then again, she is a muslim, feminist, immigrant who voted for Trump. She ticks all the boxes for Trump to put her on the first plane out! This is it America... you have officially entered the twilight zone.

no its not projection , i am not live in states but watch very VERY closely its politics, domestic and foreign and what is the basic knowledge level of people on each side , i am not left or right so its easy to say that "left" has lost its mind and behave like little childern in tantrum, TOTALLY out of reason, its was rebublicans who acted like that for decades but in recent years left has gone batshit crazy , no reason/no valid points/solutions, only lots of emotionally disturbed people and screaming maniacs.

[@ocuyo]

This is exactly what you hear from a lot of Trump voters "maybe you should've been nicer to us and we wouldn't have voted for him". Every human being, adult or child, has used a version of this excuse when they royally fuck up. "Maybe you should've done this and I wouldn't have totaled the car!" "Maybe you should've done this and I wouldn't have forgotten to lock the house and gotten us robbed!" You're a fucking adult. Take responsibility for your actions without following it up with a "but". Its not the world's responsibility to sit you down and talk to you in a nice calming voice. Not that you would've listened anyways. You had already willfully ignored so many bad signs when you voted for that clown, I'm not sure what else anyone could've told you.

Thank You Seth MacFarlane for common sense and intelligence.

[@ghostofthedislikebutton5671]

Seth doesn't know shit about politics. He supports Bernie because he thinks it's generous to offer poor people a bunch of free stuff, which ironically destroys our economy even more. But the fact is.. You can afford to support that when you have so much money you'll be rich when your dead. If Seth we're an everyday worker out in the real world, still working hard for his dreams... Also, Seth on trump saying the media didn't report the standing ovation.... It's the fact that the media will hide SO much in such effort to make trump look bad. Which even after a year of him not being president they still do..... THAT ... Should scare the shit out of you.

[@englishBHllywd]

D E at least Maher was willing to silence Milo. This went sideways because he didn't want to attack her, and I don't blame him because it would have made him look like an asshole and then the whole episode would have gone even more downhill. She was just defending her cognitive and emotional dissonance as if she's chatting over tea and forgetting she's got HBO cameras in her face and every second of screen time costs a LOT of money. She was more concerned with hanging onto her personal worldview than following the line of topical conversation and letting other people speak. Basically she seems to have issues (related to being religious, specifically) and although it hurt to watch and wasted everyone's time (Im sure hes pissed), he did the right thing by being gentle IMO.

[@GregConquest]

She did have a really hard time articulating her point. Some truths are just too ugly to accept. Being told you're insane and un-educated because you agree with the president is an example of this for tens of millions of Americans. To reach those people, we do need something other than ridicule. Seth Meyer's question is a perceptive one, though: "What else are we supposed to say?" Being repectful is not the job of comedians. Their job is always to ridicule the ridiculous. Trump is just so full of it that they're having a field day. And the news media too is largely just reporting what is going on. The ugly truth that comes from that messenger is not their fault either. It is the guy the right voted into office.

[@arondj]

Greg, I think you're confusing Seth MacFarlane with Seth Meyers..

[@geoffsmith8172]

Though, I would let you know President Obama said in 2009: "Our election is the will of the American people. Republicans will need to get on board, or stand to the side." President Obama was actually lobbying in congress before he left to push the idea of healthcare reforms as being called "Trumpcare."

Everyone should be angry that almost all of the Republicans are enabling the cover-up about Russia's interference and hacking. That should not be a partisan issue. It borders on treason if it's true. Everyone should be angry that our president might be getting orders from a foreign government. If it really isn't true, fine, investigate it and find evidence that proves it's false. But just the possibility that it might be true is unacceptable. It's not worth the risks.

[@sacmakiz]

Asra says "Trump or Milo can say whatever he wants, but if you respond to them and get angry to abuse it's your fault" What the fuck? Victim blaming 101, in 'how to enable a malignant narcissist textbook.' That's not compassion woman, that's giving in

[@Subash0069]

K Ham Well that's what I was thinking, until she talked about Milo. I think this lady is oblivious to what has been going on in the political circle over the years, and is only looking at the response from the left without seeing what the right has been doing. I agree with you on that the generalisation of Trump supporter is not good for the country, and for the democrats. The best thing the left can do is try to make them aware of the hypocrisy of the Trump administration. But as far as the lady in the pink goes, I think she is living in her own little bubble oblivious to the machinations of the political environment.

This is a brilliant show, I wish we had more like it in the UK. Honesty, succinct arguments, no pc bullshit, humour. We used to be good at that too. I might get hate for saying it but 10 years ago, I didn't get the land of the free stuff at all- the UK seemed more fearless and free, but right now, I think the tides have turned. The UK is overly PC and the US has great shows like this that say it as it is. It's really refreshing, and not because it's bashing the US, but because it's applicable to the UK as well.

[@kluh5823]

1) This show is a rare breed in America, 2) this show says a lot of risky non-PC shit ....but in that same breath, it doesn't always successfully highlight & dissect issues affecting minorities. Which sucks because, as stated, there are few other shows that cover this political ground.

[@LancesArmorStriking]

ukboy Really? I generally envy the UK for its intolerance of bullshit politicians, mostly on actual news channels (yes, still to some extent, the BBC too). American politicians are exceptionally good at dodging questions or "we've run out of time!" before anything meaningful is scraped out of them. In the UK, due to its small size, I've seen plenty of bastards get assaulted in the streets because of what they said (or didn't say)- Theresa May comes to mind?

Seth and Bill are idols of mine after seeing them on shows like this. It's that "thank fuck it's not just me thinking it" observational stuff I really admire about them. I mean, maybe not so much the US politics stuff since I'm not so clued up on that, but most definitely the atheism and Family Guy. I don't even care how it's viewed, it's a brilliant piece of satire in my opinion and one of my favourite comedies of all time. The only other shows that spoke to me in the same way were Peep Show and Red Dwarf. The Inbetweeners should get an honourable mention for representing me as a 16 year old though :p

[@ukboy8864]

mattcascade Agreed and also on shows. Family Guy is the US comedy I really identify with- also agree on Peep Show and Red Dwarf, both brilliant. I think we need a panel show like this in the UK. We used to have Mock The Week. I suppose The Last Leg isn't bad. This show feels a bit more fair though. I mean, the last leg is like 100% lefty. This show at.least gives the right a chance. i'm not so left that I don't appreciate hearing that.

And who was spouting off about taking their guns into the streets if Trump lost because, you know, rigged, blah blah blah. It wasn't the 56% of the people who voted for NOT TRUMP. You're a hypocrite, and a stupid one, at that. Try not sitting on your brain; if it's not dead, maybe letting it have some oxygen will help.

[@edbain6495]

You apparently have a selective memory about the last 8 years and how Barack was shit on by the right, which by the fucking way was waaaaay fucking worse.. But that is ok because you like many on the right are what the laymen call laymen......

You never said he was Hitler yet you infer that he's Ted Bundy. Aren't you clever.

[@deafforever3534]

Jack Grattan​ No. No. People do talk about Trump like they talked about Ted Bundy. That's just a fact. It doesn't mean I accused him of keeping dead women in his basement. He'll have more people killed than Bundy did though, that's a safe bet.

She speaks with a soft voice and tries to throw in Buddhism and peace, but her illogical rant against liberalism shoots her whole point of view down. There is no directness to what she is talking about, she just goes off into some stratosphere of babble that makes absolutely no sense at all! She has some serious inner challenges.

Rachel Schultz Why not? We liberals need more people like her, like Van Jones, Sarah Silverman, Piers Morgan, etc., really smart and educated, left leaning people who understand the other side. She doesn't think calling conservatives and even the farthest leaning right wingers stupid is productive, because it's not. If we could ignore them and run this country that would be fine, but we can't. We need them. We need each other. Love and education will bring a person closer to the middle than demeaning and objectifying them. Even if they do deserve it

[@PaperRaines]

David Symer Guess you can't, because you didn't [shrugs]

[@OniSyphon]

No we don't. Really, look at the demographic numbers. Trump won because the left was split and disgruntled. They didn't turn out to vote in the places that mattered. Trump didn't get record numbers or impressive numbers for a GOP presidential candidate. So, no we don't need them. We can continue to call them idiots if we choose to without this fear that will hurt their feelings. Do I think they're all idiots? Of course not. But stop pretending that their vote matters. What matters is actually getting people out to vote despite the steady voter disenfranchisement campaigns in key areas. Thankfully, the courts have helped in this area...

[@OniSyphon]

Hanzo- -No-Okami If every vote mattered, then most presidents would be elected based on the majority of American eligible to vote. That has never been true and yet our elections have functioned fine for over 200 years. You're either naive, ill-informed, or both. Not every vote matters. Enough votes matter. This is a simple question of math and if you want me to run the numbers for you, I can.

[@PaperRaines]

OniSyphon I disagree only to the extent that you think Democrats can effectively govern while leaving a large portion of the country alienated. Whether their feelings are legit or not that's how they feel and they will not allow the left to do anything. They will use every single legal option available to obstruct, confuse, and dilute anything we try until the electorate gets frustrated and just puts them back in power. How do I know this? Because that's what always happens, it's happened twice in the past twenty years. You are right that it only appears to be the left that disagrees with each other and splinters apart, the Republicans disagree too but they stay loyal almost to a fault. Even up to and including pedophilia. Now we need to ask ourselves, does the left need better ideas that keeps all them happy, or do they need the personality types that would defend a pedophile??? We don't live in a perfect world, but we have to work with what we've got. We need the right or else nothing of substance will ever change in this country. I think they're retarded myself, but you've got to listen to them. We can't do it alone. If we could, we would
