Comedic legend Jerry Lewis recently sat down for an interview with the Catholic EWTV outlet. The riveting interview, which aired Thursday, concluded with current events, including Obama, Trump, ISIS and even the refugee crisis. Lewis did not hold back, bashing Obama as a failed leader, smacking down the idea of importing more Syrians, and praising GOP front-runner Donald Trump for his "showmanship."
Raymond Arroyo, host of âWorld Over,â asked Lewis about the horrific emergence of ISIS. Lewis first wondered aloud where our NATO allies were to tackle the âworldâ problem and then commented that they are âasking to be stopped.â
âTheyâre asking to be stopped and weâre not stopping them; weâre just reporting what theyâre doing,â asserted Lewis. âItâs ridiculous!â
Arroyo followed up with a question about the refugee crisis currently facing the West.
"You donât have uncertainty in a leader; a leader doesnât give sh*t what he does, but he gets it done."
JERRY LEWIS
âRefugees should stay where the hell they are,â said Lewis bluntly. âHey, no one has worked harder for the human condition than I have, but theyâre not part of the human condition. If 11 guys in the group of 10,000 are ISISâhow can I take that chance?â
Lewis is not alone in this feeling; as of last month at least 31 governors rejected President Obamaâs push to accept Syrian refugees into their states. Reports of ISIS now having access to a machine that makes American passports and recent revelations of the holes in our vetting system, borne out in the horrific San Bernardino terror attack, are just a couple of the factors legitimizing such pushback from the American people.
Lewis then said that President Obama was ânever preparedâ for ISIS and suggested that he was not a real leader.
âWhat Iâm watching in him (President Obama), is uncertainty. You donât have uncertainty in a leader; a leader doesnât give sh*t what he does, but he gets it done,â said the legend.
The clip concludes with Lewis praising Trump for his âshowmanship.â
âI think heâs great,â said Lewis of Trump. âHeâs a showman and weâve never had a showman in the presidentâs chair.â
âWell, we had Ronald Reagan,â Arroyo interjected.
âWell, thatâs different,â answered Lewis. âYou canât make do a comparison on Ronald Reagan because I can do three hours on him with just praise, he was so good.â
Heâs the full interview with EWTV:
I thought this guy was dead
Jerry and Phyllis, Trump is getting endorsed by the elder statesmen and women. Good.
Most alive man on earth
ISIS is only this months flavor of religious ISlam. ISIS is just one small head of a massive hydra.
Wipe ISIS out and another will arise...and then others.
The problem is orthodox islam.
Until that problem is address, the world will continue to suffer.
May be an interesting article, too much ââ¬ÅItââ¬â¢s to try reading it.
Something about Jerry Lewis, I think.
I wish posters would take a few moments to edit their posts to weed out and replace all the offensive characters.
Ditto.
Another reason FR is full of mostly old farts now. Younger posters have moved on to sites with “cooler” interfaces.
Or until this false religion is addressed.
Are you sure?
Me too
The beauty of the internet.
Why pick on Lewis? He’s a very old man but he gets it! He dislikes Obama and supports Trump. Just because he’s not into the weeds like some of us is no reason to say he doesn’t get it.
HEY, LADY!!!!
Once ISIS is dispatched, there are thousands of other enemies right behind them.
When leaders call ISIS the enemy, it is an attempt to give a pass to the real enemy...Medina islam.

Reasonably. Many younger posters I have stayed in touch with started leaving during the frequent crash period. Even more got run off during one of the great purges. I have no way of proving it but I would wager a hefty sum that the demographics have shifted at least 10 years upward on average age of active FReepers in the last 6-7 years. Go back and look at threads from more than 10 years ago. There was a definite presence but 35-40 year olds now not so much. My son turned 40 this year and is reasonably tech savvy. He doesn’t get the attraction to FR - to clunky compared to other conservative sites. My younger offspring say the same thing. Good if you still have dial up service one said.
Almost 90 years old and still sharp as a tack.
“LIKE”
And he has survived more than one near-fatal health crises, one which blew him up above 300 lbs. He looks amazing, his mind is sharp and he is saying all the right things, except one. I so want to hear him say SCHLONG!
