Liberals have no sense of humor....................
He should have quickly followed quickly with a “Trump has sex with Ivanka” joke.
The Campus Leftists would have loved him, and any racial stuff would have immediately been forgotten.
This article, oddly, defends the snowflakes in recognition of a “small group” with the bullhorn. So it is hallow in it’s rebuke of sensitive college kids (IMO).
I would then add, if he must perform for College Audiences, as it is how he makes his living, he should be more judicious about where he will sell his product, humor. Liberals are negative miserable people. The “humor” they appreciate is NOT the norm of intellectual people.
The likes of Jerry Seinfeld and Dennis Miller do pretty intellectual humor. Liberals are not intellectuals either. So they are stupid and oversensitive. It’s hard to make childish crybabies laugh with anything but fart jokes.
We live in a new sensitized world. A world were anything can be offense to somebody. There was a time when we had hard skin, we were raised tough because life was. Everything in life had to be earned, the free stuff wasn’t there. Today we are dealing with the “Wussy” generation, I wish you luck with that. Try not to hurt their feelings, it doesn’t take much to set off the whining.
He just couldn’t resist the “orange man bad” throwaway line.

Name a famous Soviet comic:
I don’t mean that Smirnov guy.
Ever see a vid of a Khmer Rouge cut-up..?
No. If what I read on Daily Caller was right the audience was fine with it even roaring with laughter. They got all confused and are demanding money back after the set was cut short. You were interrupted and called out which confused the crowd as they saw you being forced offstage just for doing your usual routine.
A lawsuit would be more effective than an op-ed.
But the author’s only real problem with left-wing totalitarianism is that it inconvenienced him personally, isn’t it? So he will whine while waiving his civil rights.
If that university takes federal dollars - and there are very very few which don’t - it is public for the purposes of the First Amendment, and those who shut him down based on the content of his performance are liable, as well as those who empowered them.
