Pete Davidson apologizes
Daily beast link
quote:
For the past week, Lieutenant Commander Dan Crenshaw, who was elected on Tuesday as a Republican representative from Texas’ 2nd congressional district, has repeatedly appeared on Fox News to express how offended he was by a throwaway joke Pete Davidson made on last week’s Saturday Night Live. “What passes for humor these days is not what used to pass for humor and that’s the big tragedy in all of this,” Crenshaw, who wears an eye patch due to a war injury, told Fox & Friends. “Why can’t we just be funny again? Why can’t we give the American people a break and separate humor from politics?”

You can joke about politics and still be funny.
South Park does it pretty consistently. You just have to be willing to throw punches at both sides at least on occasion.
SNL used to do it and used to have interesting/funny premises around it. Like SNL Janet Reno meeting actual Janet Reno. I don't like her politics but it took stones for her to go on that show and confront Will Ferrell blatantly mocking that she looked like a man.

Well that's not true. Calling Pete Davidson not funny is just stating a fact. Libs seem to need someone to be offended at all times for everything. It's weird.

He shouldn't have apologized. I thought it wasn't funny and was questionable, but if you say it, own it. Don't be sorry because someone's shaming you into it.

It seemed like an honest apology
At the end you hear Davidson lean in and tell Dan in his ear "you're a good man"

This is just the everyday fake news that is so pervasive now.

Best possible outcome. Humans giving other humans the benefit of the doubt.

He called Pete out for being a douche. Pete admitted he was wrong and apologized. I thought it was pretty cool to have him on there even if it was just for P.R.

Quite the compliment coming from a 20 something drug addict who has failed at about everything he has touched.

SNL hasn’t been funny in 20 years.
It’s not even comedy anymore. It’s SJW commentary with a different guest douche week to week.
I’m glad this Davidson fig frickin apologized though. He’d frickin better have.

As a one eyed dude, I listened to the joke. Wasn’t that bad. I’ve definitely heard worse. When you’ve got a damaged part, you kind of have to learn to roll with it and embrace it.

I thought it was well done, the apology. Seemed sincere and was funny also. I didn’t know PD dad was a FDNY who died on 9/11.

I did not see that coming.

That was a good sketch, funny and real.
