The October 25 episode of Hulu’s I Love You, America with Sarah Silverman took a break from its usual diatribe of insulting Trump and conservatives. Just kidding. This week, Silverman focused on bashing Trump and conservatives while also giving praise to modern Spartacus Senator Cory Booker. She has truly become that predictable.
Really, every one of her opening monologues was some variation of “Trump is bad” or “conservatives are bad” or “the United States is bad” coupled with some crass joke. Sure enough, this latest “quickie” had Sarah insulting Trump for his recent rally where he called himself a “nationalist,” which she called “video of Trump saying the N-word.” She claimed he went “full Hitler” and that “his bigotry is no longer masked by his rhetoric.” She then bemoaned that even calling what he said “rhetoric” was like calling farts “pelvic wind chimes.” That’s pretty much the entire joke. She then appeared to pin the blame on Trump for the recent bomb scare: “We cannot be surprised to wake up to bombs at the doors of his favorite targets.”
Next, she proceeded to go on a rant against people she claimed use Christianity as a “shroud” for “personal hang-ups.” More specifically, she slammed Jeff Sessions forming a religious task force and Trump’s birth control mandate. Both of these things were apparently not for protecting the freedom of religion but for rolling back LGBT and women’s rights. As usual, the Republicans plus conservative Christians are the bad guys with no room for discussion or even a five-second Google search. Then again, she literally called herself a “godless” person while explaining all of this, so she pretty much admitted she has no idea how Christians should behave.
Following that was a sketch involving Sarah discussing immigration with Lady Liberty herself, played by Maya Rudolph. They talked about the usual content such as children being in cages without mentioning Barack Obama’s original role in those policies. Or how any immigration policy from Trump was pretty much racist. When Lady Liberty offered some encouraging words on immigrants, she ended with a jab against former president George W. Bush. Even the sketches have become predictable:
SILVERMAN: You know, I don’t know why we have to paint immigrants as other.
LADY LIBERTY: As one of your past presidents said, “Nearly all Americans have ancestors who braved the oceans, liberty-loving risk-takers in search of an idea. Immigration is not just a link to America’s past. It is also a bridge to America’s future.”
SILVERMAN: That’s beautiful. Obama?
LADY LIBERTY: No. George W. Bush.
SILVERMAN: No shit!
LADY LIBERTY: Shit. But then a minute later he said, “My feet smell like socks.” He was hit or miss.
The real highlight of the episode (if you can call it that) was spending time with Senator Cory Booker. Silverman devoted nearly one-fourth (seven minutes) of her 28-minute show to talking to and about the New Jersey Senator as they drove around New Jersey. In addition to practically filming a 2020 election ad, she also had him in a sketch where they order liberal policies like “sensible gun safety measures” along with their veggie burgers at a Sonic drive-thru.
Was this a comedy piece or his platform for running against Donald Trump? I’ve seen the entire episode, and I’m still not sure. What I am sure of was that the segment with Senator Booker led to a whole new set of issues.
For starters, it’s somewhat hypocritical for Sarah to spend two episodes calling Kavanaugh a horrible person for alleged 30-year-old sexual assault allegations yet giving a pass to Cory Booker, who admitted to groping a girl. Of course, Sarah is no stranger to hypocrisy, see the above “godless” quote for example. Second, did she really think she could get away with reaching out to America as she disparaged conservative candidates and lauds liberal ones? Hanging out with Cory Booker pretty much solidified her status as a liberal mouth-piece. That's a far cry from her original plan of "connecting with un-likeminded people."
As usual, the series keeps following a left-leaning perspective of the news, whether it’s propping potential presidential candidates or insulting conservative policies. Considering it’s barely funny at this point, I guess that’s all it can do now.
Well, Trump has officially won now.
Honor
Truth
Humility
Respect

“..Their words are a slap in the face to every Jew who went to their deaths in the camps....”
And every American serviceman who went over there and DIED and got the living Hell shot out of them to stop that ideology from coming here.
Looks like it got here anyway - the Democrats embraced the same ideology.
I also find it - convenient - that the Left waited until the WWII generation was almost completely gone to start their sh*t up.
Those are virtues that the Left neither possess nor believe in.
There’s two types of people in OUR Country right now - Americans... and then there are liberals.
“What’s really sick and sad is that every time they open their mouths to spew such hate and ignorance is that it so trivializes Hitler and the Holocaust to the point that they could rightfully be called Holocaust Deniers. Their words are a slap in the face to every Jew.”
This.
My wife’s uncle was in several of Hitler’s camps, and survived. I promise you that if he was alive, he might not agree with Trump’s politics, but the very last thing he would say is anything as frankly evil as what this Leftist moron has said. My grandmother had an uncle beheaded at Treblinka concentration camp, that is documented by survivors of the town that he was from who knew him. His entire family was murdered. Over a hundred of my relatives on my mother’s side were murdered in the Holocaust. Sarah Silverman is among the biggest horses asses out there, mainly because she ought to know better then to be spewing this vile filth. It most certainly cheapens and denigrates the memory of all of those people, and what they went through. You are absolutely correct that it is very similar to Holocaust denial.
It is certainly within her rights not to like Donald Trump or his policies, I have no problem with that. What I do have a problem with is the over-the-top rhetoric by her and people like her.
Liberals. Leftists. The last Liberals are in nursing homes drooling on themselves and crapping in their underwear. They are a Dying Breed, but at least they respected when they lost an election, and had certain lines that they would not cross. Leftists, on the other hand, view everything in life through the lens of how can I accumulate and maintain power. There are no lines that they will not cross. There are no rules that they respect, unless those rules help them.
Please don’t confuse liberals for leftist. They may say many of the same things, but their behavior is monumentally different. Otherwise, I fully agree with you about how this country is divided. That is incredibly sad to me, someone who grew up in an era when the World War II vets were spread throughout all of society, including as teachers and in power at every level of government. There was nothing like this back then. Thank God that most of them are not here to see what their grandchildren have become.
Little Princess Sarah needs to stick to pondering her vagina and mammary glands and leave the serious thinking to the grown ups.
Democrat actors are full of hate and anger and rage.
“...Please don’t confuse liberals for leftist. ...”
I don’t. But that’s what they call themselves now, so I oblige them.
“..but at least they respected when they lost an election, and had certain lines that they would not cross....”
Those people you are referring to were Americans. What we are dealing with now are decidedly not.
“...who grew up in an era when the World War II vets were spread throughout all of society...”
That generation RAISED me. My father, all of my uncles, and their cousins. Some never came home. I have family that died protecting this Country from these people.
I pretty much despise everything the left/liberal/progressive/nazi/communist/socialist/democrat/whatever euphemism du jour stands for today.
There’s two types of people in OUR Country right now - Americans... and then there are liberals.
To be clear, they are not Liberal, they are Leftist, communist.
Their foot soldiers think there are only two choices.
Fascism or Communism.
Hitler was a Fascist therefore Fascism is BAD.
The Communist AND Americans fought together against Hitler,
Therefore Communism is Good.
They reject the American experience and our Constitution out of fear.
Fear that they can’t compete.
Fear of themselves and the dark nature of Man.
Fear of Freedom for those around them.
They fear accountability.
They fear themselves.
The Left Projects all THEIR fears, their insecurities as some greater truth.

In Sarah Silverman’s defense - she used to have nice boobs.
“..To be clear, they are not Liberal, they are Leftist, communist....”
They call themselves “liberals” so I oblige them.
I know exactly what they are. Whatever they want to call themselves, it still ends up as POS.
But thank you, because there are others that do not.
Translation: WE’RE RUNNING OUT OF FAKE NARRATIVES! ALL WE GOT LEFT IS THIS! HEEEEEELP!
Trump is the Anti-Alinsky. Therefore, he’s Hitler./s
Hitler was a socialist. Trump is not. Sarah Silverman has gone full retard.
It’s what psychopaths do.
Psychopaths are distancing themselves from Sarah Silverman.
“For starters, it’s somewhat hypocritical for Sarah to spend two episodes calling Kavanaugh a horrible person for alleged 30-year-old sexual assault allegations yet giving a pass to Cory Booker, who admitted to groping a girl. “
Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. Cory Booker only admitted to groping a girl in order to hide the fact that he’s gay, and tried to get it on with a guy in a bathroom. That’s entirely different from Judge Kavanaugh, who was accused of attempting to rape a girl who thirty years later exhibited a gift for fudging details and sounding pathetic.
