He stood up for common sense.

May he be with God, now.

Wow, I’ve never heard of him, but haven’t watched SNL since the ‘80’s.

A kind of odd but interesting character. I remember he used to appear occasionally on Dennis Miller’s radio program. I always enjoyed seeing him on “The Middle”.

RIP

He is sorry now that he didn’t buy AndyTheBear’s new cancer vaccine.

I was just thinking of him yesterday, in a video I had seen of a routine he did in a small club not long after the Plandemic shutdown happened. He said, “Well, at least we know what we’re going to die of.”

Ironic. Of course the audience broke up laughing. No one could dream at the time it would go on and on this way (total manipulation).

He was a straight shooter, very funny and apparently a nice guy. He and Roseanne had a comedy workshop show awhile back for promising young comedians, and he was priceless as a judge and mentor.

Condolences to his family.

He had great insights about comedy. A couple of years ago I watched an interview with him on YouTube, and the interviewer asked him what he thought about Alec Baldwin's Trump impression on SNL. He said he didn't like it, and he went on to explain that he believed that in order to do a successful impression, the comedian has to have some affection for the person he's imitating. In his opinion, Baldwin's Trump impression was unsuccessful because of his obvious contempt for the man. That made a lot of sense to me. RIP Norm. You were a truly funny and smart man.

I missed this yesterday. Norm was an amazing comedian and, though he tried to stay out of politics, his conservative views shone through.

His brother, Comrade Neil Macdonald, of the CBC (Canada’s absolutely most vile, leftist broadcaster), is such an America-hating, communist, True-dope-loving, communist hack. (Yes, ‘communist’ is noted twice, on purpose.)

Hard to believe that two such totally opposite viewpoints could be held by people from the same parents.

Rest in Peace, Mr. Macdonald. You are missed.

Turd rose above comedy. He was a humorist.
