See Samantha Bee Mock Trump After ‘Golden Shower’ Allegations
On the latest episode of Full Frontal, Samantha Bee addressed the unverified report claiming to prove Donald Trump‘s ties to Russia and that he paid prostitutes to urinate in front of him in Moscow. “Hallelujah!” Bee exclaimed. “It’s comedy Christmas!”
Bee back-handedly thanked journalists for leaking a “probably B.S.” report for the sake for comedy gold. “It was CNN that broke the seal on the report’s existence,” Bee quipped, “and Buzzfeed that said, ‘fuck journalistic standards, here you go!'”
As for President Obama? “No one would ever believe that President Obama paid someone to urinate on him,” Bee deadpanned. “He’s got people who do that for free.” The screen behind her flashed photos of Senator Mitch McConnell and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.
Bee also pointed to the seeming hypocrisy of FBI director James Comey, who refused to reveal whether or not the FBI was investigating links between Trump and Russia, though he did not extend the same courtesy to Hillary Clinton when investigating her emails in the weeks before the election.
But with “comedy Christmas” came a warning about the dangers of Trump’s belligerent attitude towards anything he perceives as opposition. “It’s fun to watch a livid Orange Julius explain that he can’t be into water sports because he’s a germaphobe,” Bee noted. “[But] we may have just witnessed what the history books will call the end of America’s tradition of a free press.”
