“How Edgy”: Comedian’s attempt at an anti-Trump joke backfires brilliantly

Published July 11, 2017 6:42pm ET



Comedian Patton Oswalt is trying to stay relevant. His most recent stunt, an incredibly stupid tweet that has backfired spectacularly. The doughy comedian had the gall to shoot off a tweet insulting the president. Haven’t comedians learned by now that insulting the president is a bad idea? 

However, as many people pointed out to the dried-up sitcom extra, Donald Trump is actually the president whether Patton Oswalt likes it or not.

Check out the chorus of tweets in response to the idiotic pontification of Oswalt.

Fellow liberals aren’t even sticking up for the stupidity.

This begs the question, were the 4,284 retweets and 26,479 likes (at time of publication) worth it?

At the end of the day, even if you don’t like Donald Trump, he is still the President of the United States. Even people like Lindsay Lohan are calling for people to stop bullying Trump and to give the man a chance. It is incredible that this far into Trump’s presidency, people still need to be reminded that Trump is #MyPresident and he’s #YourPresident, too.
