Thing is ... Wolf didn’t “go after people in power”, she went after a straw man. The “jokes” had absolutely nothing to do with the people they were intended to “roast”. It’s delusional to believe that the Trump administration has any resemblance to the Leftist fantasy dystopia which is The Handmaid’s Tale - but since Trump et al are the designated opposition (shown by the fact that the Left refuses to work _with_ Trump on _anything_ no matter how Left-benefitting it may be), and a particular popular story enthralls the current Leftist notion of evil, then Leftists proceed to impute their favorite hobgoblins upon their designated opponents leading to the kind of vitriolic screed seen at that dinner. That the targets of the vitriol cringed as they did only served to signal (wrongly) that the accusations applied where they didn’t; alas, there is no good way to express in English “what you have accused me of has no basis in reality” in a way which engages those so delusional and those applauding the attack.
So she didn't call them out by name? Oh Yes She did. She called Sarah an Uncle Tom and that she betrayed all women. She did it with Kellyanne too.
Roasting people has to be done in a joke. There is CLEARLY NO JOKE HERE.
