Watch Hugh Laurie Roast Donald Trump, Republicans at Golden Globes
Mediaite ^ | January 8, 2017 | Dana Eisenberg

Hugh Laurie absolutely roasted Donald Trump and the entire Republican party during his Golden Globes acceptance speech tonight.

The actor won the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Series, Limited Series, or Motion Picture Made for Television for his work in The Night Manager, and he began his speech by saying “Thank you first to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for this amazing honor. I suppose it’s made more amazing by the fact that I’ll be able to say I won this at the last ever Golden Globes…I don’t mean to be gloomy, it’s just that it has the words Hollywood, Foreign and Press in the title.”

Also one of the clueless villians in the remake of 101 Dalmations.

Meryl Streep is trying to, uh, trump Laurie. She is a phenomenal actress, but I will never, ever see another movie she is in.

Boy am I with you on that comment!!!

He made a joke that was OK but not that funny, the first one, and the second one was name calling.

"Absolutely roasted"? Oh boy, the libs are in for a long 8 years. Without a platform from which to bully and threaten and lie unchallenged, they are exposed for having zero substance.

That’s right, I forgot about that. He’s a good actor, he should just shut up and act.

Maureen O’Hara wasn’t bad either. The Hunchback of Notre Dame an my personal favorite, The Quiet Man. Cross over to John Wayne. Great flicks and actors for a lifetime.

Believe it or not, I switched onto to the Globes only to see Streep. I can’t stand the Hollywood crowd ever since they’ve been freaking out over DT’s election. I was curious. I never ever liked Streep for some reason. Never liked her acting and always wondered why the fuss over her.

I made the mistake of seeing Streep's speech.

AAAAUUUGH!

Repeating the blatantly FALSE accusation at Trump, whining about "press freedom", then adding in how the "NFL" and "Mixed Martial Arts" are not ART! (Sneeeeer...)

I told myself, she just made the perfect case as to why Trump won.

It's because of these pompous, elitist, ignorant a-holes.

The cameras cut to a shot of Mel Gibson and Vince Vaughn, who were most decidedly NOT in favor of her comments.

Even the leftist audience couldn't muster more than a third to give her a standing ovation.

PATHETIC.

Liberal leftists “Awards” where they all come together to pat each other on the back, talk about hating guns, wanting open borders, and hating white people, meanwhile being surrounded by ARMED GUARDS

Barely won? If you think like a lefty that this is a democracy and only the popular vote counts, then actually he lost.

Trump won wit over 300 electoral votes, that’s not too shabby. He has a mandate to do what he promised.

What amazes me is people etill actually watch these award shows.

My favorite quote about them comes from the TV Show the West Wing:

C.J.: They sent me two turkeys. The most photo-friendly of the two gets a Presidential pardon and a full life at a children's zoo. The runner-up gets eaten.

Bartlet: If the Oscars were like that, I'd watch.

What/who is Hugh Laurie? Sounds like an English tricycle.

He needs to be brass knuckles with these whiners. Get them off the TV. He needs to own the moment.

Yeah...never got tired of seeing grown men walk around with the neighbor’s little black and white cat, saying “I’ve got Felicity Kendall’s Underpants, and they need a good wash. “

This pales in comparison to the one Meryl Streep delivered.
