The look Trump gives him when he starts talking about the ice cream glove is great.

That’s the first thing that came to mind. I know the Borat routine is absurd and people may fall for it. However, isn’t it a fact, that all the people involved get paid, and all the people involved have to sign that they consent to be in his movie????

Or look at another way, if someone was shocked and angered at being duped, wouldn’t they then NOT sign off on permission to appear in the movie?

Maybe I’m missing something.

THe cringe is not my kind of humor either... especially when it goes political

Oh, defecate in public, so imaginative. Go to San Francisco Von Cohen if you think it is so special...

The guy is another idiot who was given a diploma in stupid by the elites so he could feel proud of himself making degenerative art.

Totally agree. The commercials for the first movie put me off. Seemed the IQ level of say, Jim Carey.

Ah yes, but they underestimated the feminine rewriting of the contract post factum

IT is ok for them to promote women to complain of rape like in the Kavannaugh flap (when there was none of such and said hysterical woman was actually the aggressive solicitor), but when it happens to them they start crying.

Cry me a river.

OFf with Amazon. THey reap what they sow.

I’m really hoping to wake up some morning to read that borat was gang-raped, murdered, and diced up into small pieces - all as a prank of course.

Cohen is huge in Israel. In the original Borat movie when he was ranting about the Jewish cockroaches he was actually speaking in Hebrew, and the Israelis thought it was hilarious. His family emigrated to Israel from Germany and he was awarded an International Leadership Award by the Anti-Defamation League. It would be a stretch to think he would take advantage of a Holocaust survivor.

I did too. Well, part of it. I admit I liked the first Borat movie.

It wasn’t even that it was a thinly-veiled hit piece on DJT and his supporters.

It was just... Unfunny and Boring. I told my wife it wore out it’s welcome very quickly.

Turned it off after about 30 minutes.

I admit that my humor occasionally tends towards the gutter, but it seems like that is all that passes for humor on the Left.

That wouldn't bother me as much except that it is always one way for them.

It seems like something a High School sophomore would do for kicks...

Thank you. That is exactly the adjective I was looking for - Sophomoric.

Borat is a sophomoric a$$hole

Jay Leno used to do a thing called “Jaywalking” where he would put a microphone in front of people and ask them pretty easy questions that they would occasionally fumble...sometimes it was funny, and sometimes it was depressing.

But I always felt a bit of sympathy-any of us on an off day could fumble a normally easy question when caught off guard, and they made national laughing stocks out of these folks.

That is the modus operandi of Borat, from what I can tell. I don’t care for it.

Yep. Like they suffer from inversion, like these people who hallucinate vomit coming up their sink or devils surging out their toilets into their butts. The left has a hold on that inversion theory of Freud and forces it on people.
