Just in case anyone isn't familiar with what he said..

Richards, 46, repeatedly used offensive language to describe and denigrate women's bodies and he also made an offensive comment about Jewish people, according to The Ringer's review of the 41 episodes available online until Tuesday. Richards confirmed in a statement that he has since taken the episodes down.

Thanks, after reading that I'm still not familiar with what he allegedly said about Jewish people and women's bodies.

I did.. evidently I missed something.. Please educate me on what I missed.. Because I know, it doesn't matter what Trump did, some of you people will defend him no matter what.

Why are some of you so loyal to him or any other politician?

And the guy you voted for just gave the Taliban enough advanced military weaponry to fuel their terrorism for decades to come. Oh yeah, he’s also telling Americans stranded in Afghanistan to find their own way home while sending planes full of Afghanis to the US. The reeetard is strong in you.

I love the left's approach to Trump during his 4 years. They were pissed that we were getting along with the other powers that be across the globe.

With how they criticized him about this, we should have gone to war with North Korea, Russia, and basically the entire Middle East.

You voted for the moron who has caused economic and unnecessary problems beyond belief for this country. I would be hiding in shame if I voted for Biden or any worthless liberal.

bullshite. This happened because the current President, who's nowhere to be found, fricked up the withdrawal completely.

What fricking moron pulls out the military, under the cover of dark without telling *anyone*, before evacuating civilians?

They’ve really fricked up replacing Trebek. I’ve lost interest in the show entirely.



Since we're not in the era of the game show anymore, it's hard to find an easy replacement host with polish and a clean background to avoid the Cancel Nazis.

They should make a play for Wayne Brady to host Jeopardy IMO.

He was forced out because of all the crap they were catching for not hiring a black man as host. And before ya'll down vote, who wants to bet that Levar Burton isn't named the host.

This is so god damn stupid.

I wish someone would dig into these reporters past who digs into other people's past in order to find anything that will cancel them.


You’re the crippled, mental gimp who supports the very people and voted for the administration that champions this sort of shite.
Suck it up you fricking retard.

it doesn’t work because they are pathetic frickwads making $35k a year with nothing to lose

our society exists in such a way to just tear people down and we allowed it to happen. frick you and frick Joe Biden and everyone on the “left” who claims “cancel culture” isn’t real. It’s real because you allowed it.

We just have to pray the younger generation is watching and learning, because pretty soon you won’t be able to hire anyone for anything if “mother Teresa” is the standard when your entire life is online and searchable

First of all I am not the left or am I the right. I don't agree with the two party political system because it is part of the reason we are where we are as a country right now. I believe in balance.

And I think when a US president becomes buddy buddy with adversaries there will be questions raised. Those countries are never going to do anything that's in our best interest so it looks naive. And I don't give a frick if it was Trump, Obama, Bush.. Whoever. If they interacted with our adversaries the way Trump did I would have the same thoughts.

Unlike some people.. Who will defend one side no matter what and criticize the other side no matter what.

I wanted him to succeed, but he was in the bottom half of guest hosts.
