Comedy Central Host Trashes Melania Trump: ‘Wooden,’ ‘Dirty’

Remember when First Lady Michelle Obama was off-limits to political satirists?

Comedians know not to cross certain lines with their jokes.

Take the First Family. It’s all well and good to mock the president, but the First Spouse is a different matter. That’s how it was for eight years when First Lady Michelle Obama lived in the White House.

And good for that.

She wasn’t the president. It’s certainly reasonable to send a gentle barb or two her way. She’s a public figure, after all.

More than that? Inappropriate.

Now that Melania Trump is the country’s First Lady, all bets are off, apparently.

It started before Mrs. Trump moved to Washington, D.C. Stephen Colbert employed an actress (Laura Benanti) to mock Melania Trump for reading a plagiarized speech. Saturday Night Live, not to be outdone, trashed her as stupid via a series of “Melania Moments” sketches.

Now, comedians are getting uglier.

Cokehead commies ridiculing the opposition. What else is new?

[facedown]

Guttersnipes.

[Terry Mross]

If the “lovely” Michelle Obama had any class she would Condemn this.

Who decided that Colbert is funny. He’s never made me smile.

Orchestrated by homosexuals. Homosexual men are known to mock beautiful women. Primarily it is because, when they see one, it reminds them of unpleasant concepts regarding their gayness.

Not fair! This is different! Melania is a Republican!

[nclaurel]

Ugly, nasty people are so jealous of our beautiful First Lady!

F those scumbag MF’ers! Useless drivel spewers.

“Take the First Family. It’s all well and good to mock the president, but the First Spouse is a different matter. That’s how it was for eight years when First Lady Michelle Obama lived in the White House. “

There was an eight year moratorium on mocking the president, too.

I guess he prefers greasy Michelle and crusty Hillary.

[Two Kids' Dad]

I’ll take the current first lady over the former first wookie any day of the week.

Try teasing Melania when her picture is right next to Moochelle’s. One has class and grace and beauty, the other has linebacker shoulders, an oversized backside and a tacky boob belt.

I guess that’s fair game, right? The media has shown us by example that it’s fine to ridicule family members of politicians. And since they’re the arbiters of propriety...

Ping to First Lady Melania's List.

The knives are out, I don't think Our First Lady has been disposed to being truly HATED by people, for no reason.

I pray for her.

[Secret Agent Man]

Almost all of it is because they are not the cool liberal kids like they are. They use their comedy as a weapon. They are just bullying under the real thin veneer of comedy.

A very small part of it is because they finally can nuclear attack a president and the rest again, after 8 years of not being able to do so.

[SkyDancer]

Liberals continuing to drive that wedge deeper and deeper.
