“Bless her heart”
I forget which comedy central roast it was but it had Mike the "Situation" [last name] there. He bombed so fucking hard. I got horrific second hand embarrassment from it. The best quip of the night was when Anthony Jizzlenick(sp?) got up to the podium. So nonchalant addressing Mike, almost as if in passing, calmly stated, "Great job," in that smarmy ass tone he's perfected.
Reminds me of that.
It's was the Comedy Central Roast of Trump actually
Wow you really have to suck to bomb at roasting Trump... there's so much to work with.
Iirc there were certain things they weren't allowed to mock, one of which was the fact that he wasn't really a billionaire.

The subtle brutality of past-tense phrasing.
I thought it was more of a jab at the ridiculous acting she had to do since it was all lies.
I don't think there's much need to discuss the substance of this response, as it's hardly anything but finger-pointing and fear-mongering. But I do find one thing quite telling: the fact that the GOP even made one of the few women in that party give her SOTU response from a kitchen.
I hadn’t seen the video but felt like I got all the info I needed to get the reference from SNLs cold open with Scar Jo https://yewtu.be/watch?v=cCfLpuLdF8Q

Biden on Britt’s SOTU response: ‘I thought she was a very talented woman...’
"... and boy was I wrong!"
This is the best summary I could come up with:
President Biden on Friday described Sen. Katie Britt (Ala.), who gave the Republican response to his State of the Union address the day prior, as “talented.”
“I thought she was a very talented woman,” he said, adding, “I didn’t quite understand the connections she was making.”
Britt, a first-term senator, went after Biden on Thursday night over high prices at the grocery store and gas station, the situation at the U.S. southern border and crime in cities.
“Last month, Senator Britt sided against President Biden, the Border Patrol Union, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce by opposing the toughest bipartisan border deal in modern history — instead voting with fentanyl traffickers,” spokesperson Andrew Bates said.
Britt has been widely criticized on social media for what has been called a melodramatic and unnatural rebuttal.
Britt, an emerging rising star within the GOP, is the youngest female Republican elected to the Senate, serving as part of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) leadership team and sitting on the highly coveted Appropriations Committee.
