Trevor Noah's anti-Trump jokes fall flat at Grammys as artists roll their eyes while he tries to score laughs

Comedian Trevor Noah's attempt at humor fell flat at the Grammy Awards, as his controversial joke about immigrants left some celebrities rolling their eyes.

The South African-born comedian returned to host his fifth Grammys ceremony Sunday evening and used his opening monologue to make a joke criticizing President Donald Trump's tariff against immigrants.

'I don't know if you know this, but there's been a few changes in Washington,' Trevor, who emigrated from South Africa in 2011, said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Hopefully, he ruined what little career he had.  I wouldn't know the clown if I saw him, but I remember the media making a big deal about him which is warning enough not to watch him. :BangComp:

I wouldn't watch this shit, if I was gun point, but I did see that this was supposed to be a big fund raiser for the LA fires.

Interesting they would joke about Trump trying to get donations from half half the country that voted for him.  Oops....
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Clearly, denigrating your political opponents is far more important than raising money for fire victims at a fundraiser.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Especially when so many liberals lost everything in those fires and blame the democrat policies   From the Biden administration down to Noisome and the incompetent mayor of LA.

Trevor Noah’s Anti-Trump Jokes At Grammys Didn’t Land — And He’s Getting Backlash
Story by Elyse Wanshel • 12h

Trevor Noah’s awkward delivery may be leading to misinterpretation.

On Sunday night, the former “Daily Show” star hosted the 2025 Grammy Awards, and his opening monologue for the event seemed to fall flat.

Noah, who is usually breezy onstage, seemed to rush through his jokes Sunday, muddling many of his punchlines and making the monologue’s anti-Trump theme a bit unclear — especially in a joke involving undocumented immigrants and another about Colombian pop star Shakira.

This is a perfect example of how the liberal media does all it can to protect its own.  Would HuffPo been as generous to a conservative who made the same mistakes while Biden was president?  There is not a snowball's chance in hell. **nononono*
