Everybody. Yes, everybody on Earth has a Donald Trump impression. Most of them are not very good. I won't even do mine here. Because it's not good. There's certain impressions I can do. Alright, now listen here, this is it. But there's certain, like Trump, everyone does the little, well, now listen here, look, okay, blah, blah, boob, but it's not a great impression. To have a really, really great impression, you have to pierce to the heart of a man's character.

We will see if these professional comedians can do it. can do it. Let's get to it. Trump gave what I think was probably one of the greatest speeches of world leaders given, you know, it's got to be up there with like Churchill, Gettysburg Address. It's the night the United States killed the leader of ISIS. Trump comes out of the situation room at like midnight in the White House and he walks down that fucking tunnel. Like he gives a press conference.

Like he's given a postgame NBA and just goes, Abu, Abu, Bacar, Al-Baghdadi, is dead. He died like a dog. I didn't change one word of that. That's what he opened with. And then he did 40 minutes. The speech is 40 minutes. The meanest talk you've ever heard in front of the whole world. Abu,

we could hear him crying. I said, Abu don't cry. Let me tell you something. Abu cried. He cried quite a bit. I wouldn't have cried. Cry baby, Baghdaddy. That's what we were all calling.

That's a great Trump impression. That is so. much better than the majority of Trump impressions. You did a good job. Good job. Because of the pause, you know, a very powerful tool on stage is stillness and Trump uses it and good performance use it. And so it's that and Trump's trying to formulate what he's going to say. Really, really good, very perceptive. Biden's not doing good. You ever watch him talk? He starts out yelling and then he whispers like the most important part of the speech. Read what I said.

Total opposite of Trump. Trump starts out calm and then builds to a violent screaming by the end of his speech. So, excuse me, think of it. We have to save this great country, right? No, I mean, this country is so great, I mean it's so great. And then now it's not so great. Because of the radical left. And you know these people, right?

Radical, we call them radical. These people, these radical left. They're rapists. and they're murderous and they're fucking our kids chopping their d'ass off, putting butt lights up their ass at the board. That's what they're doing.

Think of it. No, thank you. So sad. Think of it. Does that little toddler sway? I think I've seen that guy before. I think I've come across that guy before. So Tyler is great because

the previous comedian got the neck up physicality, this thing with the hand. And Tyler has it really from the neck down. and he's got that kind of, Trump kind of perches out his chest a little bit and the sway, as he mentioned. The voice is not quite as good, but the crescendo, the diminuendo. He gets the dynamics of it really, really well. And the face to a degree, too. Listen, that's another, hmm, a whole other aspect.

And it's an impression, right? It's not the whole care. It's just a little impression. Next one. There's a lot of great people on both sides. Jamie Fox does. has an amazing Trump. I know, Harry O, he's a great person.

He couldn't vote for me at the time. Now he can vote for me once he gets out. I love Snoop deal, double cheek. What's your favorite death row record on, Mr. Trump? All of them. All of the death row records. Don't try to pin me down. I see what he just, excuse me.

Fake news. Excuse me. Fake news. Fake news. They tried to give me the virus. I beat the virus. They tried to, they tried to give him the virus. Who was they?

I beat the man. They're like, he's mean. Man, Jamie Lee Fox is just a great performer. He gets the voice. He's not doing too much of the physicality there at all, so it's just a vocal impression,

but it's almost perfect. Makes sense. He's a very versatile performer. He's a musician. He's an actor. He's a comedian. He gets it all. It's also quite impressive because he's a black guy,

because it's easier for white. guys to do white guys and black guys to do black guys. It's just, it's just, there's something, you know, you kind of grow up with all the eccentricities of your culture and your race. But Jamie Fox just transcends all of it. And can, he's just, wow, that's an amazing performance. I was asked to speak at this hotel. It turns out there's some type of bank what going on. Can you one second? Just give me a second. Fuck you, you fucking piece of shit, ugly, fat, orange. Social media. They had to take it away. I was too good. In fact, go ahead, put it back.

Put it back up. Put it back up. People say I've got bad makeup. Tana looks like someone painted her face like a clown. That's what we're gonna call her. Tana, it the clown. She looks like him. She looks like she should be in a sewer, bothering children.

Any interest? You're gay. Hey, blame the dairy industry. I would never suck a guy's . But if I did, it'd be one of the best sucks he's ever had. A few years ago, women would have the flat butts. Not you, you've got a very nice one. Thank you.

You know, I did, I pulled it. very well with the blacks. How am I pulling with you? Not great. That was an amazing mess of mediocre mediocrity. Not great. The one thing, I don't want to just totally knock the impression. The one thing he's got is that he can sit, like Trump, Trump sits on the edge of his seat, shoulders over. But the voice was off. The mannerism's not quite there. Writing, very lazy. It was obviously a liberal sketch. But not great.

Oh, they gave me so much press, John, so much press. billions they say frankly billions of dollars can you believe this billions of free press i said keep it coming we're going to jail even if he goes to jail he'll make it cool right we're going to jail right nobody goes to jail like i do el chapo couldn't do it that quick he couldn't do it that quick al capone took him so long even winona rider that sad fat pig yeah man it's almost like that guy tyler is like a professional comedian or something, you know? Someone should put him in a movie. Are we or aren't we cutting our

off? Well, they're going to indict your favorite president. This is a horrible thing. It is a bigger hoax than Russia, Russia. Nobody's going into the Biden Corvette looking at all the documents. He's still. Biden took more documents than the amount of times he's fallen over like a dog. And the indictment is taking place in Mejami. We love me, Jeremy. It is a Rob DeSaintimonyers state. It is a hit job by Rob. It's a horrible thing. It's a horrible thing. what they're doing. So the best part of his impression, which we haven't heard from the others yet, is that, ah, drop. It's the, the scratching of his vocal cords where Trump, it's not always just this guy. Yeah. It's like, sometimes there's this just expulsion of sound, this ejaculation.

Frazing. Shut up. Eh, you know, it was kind of, it, yeah. And there's this tightening of the vocal cords. And so that was good. He picked up on that. The other ones had not. Of all the presidents, I think it's fair to say Donald Trump would be the funniest one to see he get shot. It's because he'd be in the middle of a speech talking. You're gay. The shooter would be coming out and be like, sit down, get down. What a loser. Get down. Sit down. But just the noise he would make when he got hit,

even if he loved Donald Trump, it would be funny. As soon as he got hit, he'd be like, eh. But the rest of the joke, which is my favorite part, that didn't really, a lot of people didn't like it was, Biden, I think Biden's the first president, you could punch assassinate. You just, You just walk right up to him, be like, Mr. President, and the fuck.

You do. Shane Gellis, that guy's great. That was great. Imagine how much funnier SNL would be had he been on it. Two times zero is still zero. Infinitely funnier because there would be one funny guy. That's not fair. Kenan Thompson's pretty funny.

But there'd be then two funny guys on SNL. That'd be great. Okay, which was the best one? Tyler was good. He probably gets like a runner-up. Now, you know what, man, maybe it's Tyler. I think it's Tyler, followed by Jamie Fox. Tyler gets the win, though.

Maybe it's just because I got to see two clips, but his is very good. This is very, very good. Runner up Jamie Fox, after that, the first guy. So be it. Nehal Obstot. How many discounts does USA auto insurance offer? Too many to say here. Multi-vehicle discount. Safe driver discount.
