He was actually moving when he started talking about why the media is now like the minorities. I hope they all took his message to heart.

Every year they sit there looking miserable. Why the hell don't they just stay home, if it is such torture for them? Minhaj did a great job and deserved a little more enthusiasm.

Yeah, he did start kinda slow, but then he really hit it home!

Also made some amazingly great points about how the media can now know what it's like to be a minority. Hey, guys, try that one on and walk around in it for awhile. You'll find it fits pretty doggone well.

It was a unique performance. He amused on the one hand, and got 'em thinking seriously about some very sober realities on the other hand. (At least I hope so!) A speech that delivered in all kinds of directions, including tough love.

The Donald has a skin which is a nanometer thick. He cannot stand people making fun of him. It is a major part of the narcissistic personality disorder: I am the greatest. To misquote Sir William Gilbert's Iolanthe,

The Trump is the true embodiment
Of everything that's excellent
He has no sort of fault or flaw

Maybe it's why Tinyhands has such a bad case of ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome). He got cut to ribbons that night, and couldn't even respond!
