That's an insult to Joffrey.

Don't give him more ideas.
Getting in a war of words with a professional stand up comedian.
That doesn't seem like a very "stable genius " move.
Getting in a war of words with a professional stand up comedian.
These people never learn lol...
I am sure many of the comedians out there are calling Rosie to offer material.
Cliff Cash, Johnny Cash's cousin, would probably be happy to lead her through a new "Southern Strategy."
From my perspective, he's still salty about her making fun of him back in the 90s on her daily TV talk show. He made it worse by not letting it go and taking out full page ads in the New York Times in response. She would then show the ads to the audience and read it on the air. Then she would make new jokes about what a giant man-baby he was.
That was enough to convince me, then, that Donald Trump was not a good person. That was about 25 years ago. I have not changed my mind about him. In fact, I dislike him much more now than I did then. It astounds me that anyone voted for that moron.
A similar thing happened when he turned up to a White House press gala and Obama made him the butt of a joke. I think that was the moment Donny decided to run for president.
He already tried to run for President before in 96. I truly believe even his run in 2016 was meant to be a loss - he was gonna get primaried out by someone more competent, or failing that, lose the general, and then he'd build a media network (since he registered a bunch of groundwork and trademarks for that) so he could be Glenn Beck 2.0 and scream about how The Liberals Made Me Lose. You can see it in his acceptance speech and how shitty everything was getting done in his first year - nobody expected him to win, he didn't even expect to win, so he did zero work beforehand that would've been required if he won.
Then he got a taste of the power and prestige and cult following he had, and decided the one thing he couldn't live without was a mass of people cheering his name no matter what he did.
Nah, the 2016 run was never meant to succeed, because it was just meant to raise his public profile, because he was negotiating for a better salary on the apprentice. Gwen Stefani had just gotten a deal making more money than him for judging the voice and he was salty a woman was earning more than him.
Obama's jibe came after years of Trump stirring up racist conspiracy theories against him. It's not like Trump wasn't asking for it.
Yeah but Trump was deadly serious about it.
That sounds like something an adult would say. Donald Trump is not an adult.
In addition to Seth Myers doing the same on the same night. That's why Trump's always talking about Myers having marbles in his mouth, whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean.

Thanks Obama!
It was the White House correspondents dinner and it was broadcast on television.
I’m right there with you. I hate him and his cadre of slimeball traitorous morons with the fury of a thousand suns.
Don't forget Joffrey was also born from incest.
tRump just fantasizes about it with his daughter.
It still astonishes me that a country with 340 million people can pick this guy to be its leader and public face.
Ew, please provide some warning.
He gave people permission to say and act on their most vile thoughts.

I remember when I was a kid, and I said Raphiel was the coolest Ninja Turtle. And everybody else said Michelangelo.
I was told I was wrong because otherwise it would mean everyone else was wrong.
I said "Then everyone else is wrong together. Just like when they cancelled PeeWee's Playhouse."
I'm now 41, and still stand by both statements. Everyone can be wrong together.
You should include a trigger warning with that pic 4real

Joffrey had more charm
And intelligence and a plan. He was a petulant child, though.
Joffrey also had some decently smart people helping him. The lad would've gotten his throat slit long ago if Tywin wasn't around.

I really don't like her either, but damn, that got an authentic "Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho damn..." belly laugh out of me.
What’s wrong with Rosie? She’s a little too loud and obnoxious to me, but that could be just me reacting to the Yankee in her. Otherwise she’s not harming anyone I know of.
Maybe op was confusing Rosie and Roseanne?
You know what, you're partly correct! Barr is an absolute bitch who should have taken the opportunity presented after the whole racism thing to just disappear.
However, I've just never found Rosie to be a likeable person. Even going back to her stand up days, I've always found her annoying and abrasive. I do very much appreciate her tearing Trump apart though!
Holy shit, thank you for that clarification. Idk why but I had them confused and could've sworn she was pro-trump (the whole RFK thing) but that was just Roseanne. I was even wondering why she was looking 10x better but just turned out I was being a dunce lol.
Roseanne has come out against the orange rapist/pedophile recently.
The one thing these fucking psychos care about (or pretend to at least).
I guess the concentration camps weren't enough. Fucking losers.
That’s my guess too. Roseanne Barr got into some hot water after posting some racist BS, then blaming it on her Ambien. The maker of Ambien actually responded to her excuse with something along the lines of “being a racist is not a known side effect of ambien.”
lol!😂 I didn’t hear that ambien maker reply part yet. I do remember her spouting off a while back.
Oh no, I’m a loser racist shitbird. You can’t do ‘Roseanne’ without me!
Hold my beer. 🍺
If so, then yeah. Roseanne is a pretty horrible person.

Yeah Rosie O’Donnell is pretty great. She’s an OG.
Fear is how they win, I like her response.
I want to see Trump drink from that cup on live TV.
I'd love that, and more of they blamed Melania, lol!
That might hurt him if he read the books or watched the show.
All he watches is Faux News and probably old episodes of The Apprentice. He has no idea who Joffrey is.

That's an excellent reference. May he drink from his cup soon.
