And you already thought Hillary Clinton was humorless. Michael Moore revealed he tried to create a comedy all-star team — including Amy Schumer, Chris Rock and Bill Maher — to anonymously help write material for Clinton during her 2016 run for president, but her camp turned Moore down and called Schumer too “dirty,” he said.
“Before the debates … I kept thinking, ‘Trump has such thin skin, if Hillary just had like a comedy shiv in her hand, just to slip under that thin skin, he will implode,’ ” Moore said on Schumer’s podcast, “3 Girls, 1 Keith.”
The “Bowling for Columbine” director said he texted some funny friends for help. “I asked all you guys to form a Justice League of comedy, and we would write jokes and things for Hillary to say during the debates that would just make him melt,” Moore said.
Schumer said she was all in — but when Moore took the idea to Clinton’s camp, someone called Schumer “dirty.” (Schumer joked: “They’re not wrong.”)
Moore said that the left-leaning gang agreed to do the work for free, and with no credit. “We were going to do this confidentially … Our only joy [would have been knowing] that the line that brought down Trump was Amy’s [or one of the other incognito writers].” Schumer, who’s related to Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer, added, “We would [have] silently celebrate[d].”

How would a lot of “Miss Piggy” jokes have taken down Trump?
They’ve got Trump’s “thin skin” all wrong. Just because he cuts them back, they think he’s thinned skinned. They are humorless idiots.
Don’t worry Mike Joe Biden will accept your comedy help. He’ll be great for sure.
Hillary already has that funny ex-wife humor delivery...
Hillary was wildly overconfident in 2016. She will ride to glorious victory all on her own! No need for any help from show folk.
Oh, and here’s Hillary on the Zach Galifianakis show ‘Between Two Ferns’. It aired about a month before the 2016 election. It’s a short clip, and well worth the watch if you haven’t seen it before.
Hillary comes across as arrogant, and dull. Galifianakis shreds her. Funny stuff.
Schumer IS too dirty.
I have to begrudgingly give Hillary a sliver of respect for turning that down.
What hubris,as if they could top the biggest joke of all,hillary running for president.
Mrs. Clinton, isn’t he the who called 9/11 an inside job?
She is good at slapstick, like getting thrown into the back of her van like a suitcase.
Should she have guided us through the Wuhan Cootie Virus? Of course not. There would’ve been no Panicdemic. Besides, everybody else would be suffering from Tuberculosis, diphtheria, measles, smallpox, cholera, and other diseases brought to America by third-world shitholes.
“She is good at slapstick, like getting thrown into the back of her van like a suitcase.”
LOL. I just pictured that, and heard Curly of the Three Stooges in my head.. “Nyuck! Nyuck! Nyuck!”
Yup,they would have gone over like gangbusters in states like Wisconsin...Ohio...North Carolina...Florida...
She is the queen of the pratfall.
