I don't care HOW patriotic you think you are or HOW much you try to convince people of it, every US citizen has the right to show their dissatisfaction of their country peacefully whenever and wherever they want. Freedom of speech extends beyond just literal speech, and that was proven during a court case during the Vietnam War. Any who try to attack or disparage you for doing so are infringing on your legal right to protest, and are in opposition of your legal right to protest. Ergo, they are in opposition of the law. Trump and his ilk are a serious disgrace to everything our nation stands for.
Heracross X Ok cool, pay me for 3 hours yard work and you can find me kneeling in your backyard protesting police brutality for 3 hours. I still expect to be paid by the way, for the full 3 hours!
"Let's just take a step back and consider how embarrassing it is that news anchors now have to introduce comments from the President by warning little children to leave the room."
It's "high school," not "highs school." And there is no need to capitalize these words: comment, plural and back. You're welcome. I hope you enjoy high school if/when you get there.
jeffy, this is not the first and only time that your president has used inappropriate words, that are unsuitable for children. He does this quite often. This is not one random incident.
Keines dieser Videos ist gefälscht - sie zeigen nur, wie verrückt die Dinge in den USA sind. Ich lebe in Kanada und musste das alles miterleben, als sie stattfanden.
It's even more disrespectful of the flag to not condemn the confederate flag (the Confederates were some of the worst traitors of the United State) and neo-nazis in Charlottesville and to disrespect a Vietnam war veteran by saying a captured soldier is not a war hero, all simply because that war hero criticized his bullshit politics. If you ask me, or anyone that truly cares about the American Flag, these things I mentioned should be considered some of the greatest, most disgraceful insults toward the American flag, and the United States of America.
Trump tried to buy the Buffalo Bills they would not sell it to him that's why he says that about our flag but he wouldn't go to Vietnam he was called five times five times his doctor said he had Spurs fake Patriot
+CEOofFRESH1 Guess you'd better let the country implode then. PR being corrupt contributing to its financial woes doesn't mean you should leave 3.4 million of your own damn civillians in a collapsing country in dire need of aid. Even if you draw a hard line at financial aid for fear of redirection you could directly provide the resources for rebuilding.
Amber's bit had me laughing so hard, I almost forgot how messed up the subject matter is. People like her and Seth are what keep me from being perpetually nauseous throughout this presidency.
I will respectfully disagree. Americans should have respect for our nation. The flag is only a visual representation of the values that Americans should uphold. I can concede that our current president has weaponized patriotism but that doesn’t mean that a modicum of pride in your homeland should be considered wrong. My nation has a lot of good ideas and innovations that we should be proud of.i do believe that we as a people should respect a persons’ right to protest. It’s important that people with power be it through athletics or politics voice a stance of various injustices. That is where our pride comes from from the vast majority of Americans. As an American of African descent I know I’m in a precarious position and have people stand up for me is important. But I do not believe I have to give up my national pride because I’ve earned it as much as anyone else. I say all this to say we aren’t perfect here in the states but if we give up on our national pride and actively encouraging the things we have in common with our countryman we will tear ourselves apart and you can see it happening if we allow ass hats to monopolize our earned rights.
Not trying to insult americans and I don't really know them that well but I feel the americans are so obsessed with the anthem and the flag it's because they don't really have that much culture or heritage (or at least the don't embrace it) to be proud of unlike other countries, but I don't really know that's just my opinion
@@alibialexander, respecting the flag and fetishising it are very different. Also, using the flag as a cudgel to attack those that disagree with you is incredibly disrespectful to the flag. I wholeheartedly agree with most of what you said, just felt I needed to point out the differences between respecting the flag and using it for your own ends.
Let's take a look at the official US flag code shall we? The following are examples of violations that occur to the US flag on a daily basis. Yet conservatives never get mad when these are violated. Although not every code is listed here there is not a single one that is about kneeling. The flag should not be used as "wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery", or for covering a speaker's desk, draping a platform, or for any decoration in general (exception for coffins). Bunting of blue, white and red stripes is available for these purposes. The blue stripe of the bunting should be on the top. The flag should never be used for any advertising purpose. It should not be embroidered, printed, or otherwise impressed on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs, napkins, boxes, or anything intended to be discarded after temporary use. Advertising signs should not be attached to the staff or halyard. The flag should not be used as part of a costume or athletic uniform, except that a flag patch may be used on the uniform of military personnel, firefighters, police officers, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag should never have any mark, insignia, letter, word, number, figure, or drawing of any kind placed on it or attached to it. In a parade, the flag should not be draped over the hood, top, sides, or back of a vehicle, railroad train, or boat. If the flag is being used at a public or private estate, it should not be hung (unless at half staff or when an all-weather flag is displayed)during rain or violent weather. The flag should always be permitted to fall freely.(
The flags planted on the moon had a pole running horizontally across the top to hold them up since there is no wind on the airless moon. I wasn't aware, however, that the departing Apollo 11 LEM had knocked it over. I wonder if the other missions planted theirs further away... Either way, thank heavens for commentators like Seth and his writers!
It’s weird, now that you mention it, I realized I still say “President Obama,” but I’ve never actually said “President Trump,” it just feels wrong to me
"Be grateful!" I know how in this specific context, as in many, there is a HUGE race component to it, but I think it is directed at any non-privileged people: "how dare you". "how dare you want more than the bones we threw you." Or as Russell Brand once said: "When I was poor and complained about inequality they said I was bitter; now that I'm rich and I complain about inequality they say I'm a hypocrite. I'm beginning to think they just don't want to talk about inequality.”
regular_max: Hypocrisy is the main staple of the GOP and the Alt-Right. Yes it's true; my buddies and I get together for barbecue and beer on the weekend and watch news about the Mango Mussolini. Donald Trump. Rebel Without A Clue. Loved Steph Curry's response to the Commander-in-Thief.
I find it funny how they get so upset about people protesting police brutality, and claim they should do it somewhere else. Yet don't put 2 and 2 together to figure out, if they just worked to fix the reason people are protesting, they would stop.
Why didn't Trump say anything to Tom Brady when he didn't go to the White House with the rest of the Patriots team? Why didn't Trump talk about Tom Brady skipping the visit like he did Steph Curry? Hypocritical much?
Taking a knee during our anthem is not disrespectful to our flag! It is not disrespectful to our people! Im so sick of hearing about how "unamerican" they are. Please consider that the act of a politically identified populace collectively denouncing the nationality and patriotism of an entire group of people solely on their method of demonstrating their disgust with something they find to be an injustice, is unpatriotic in and of itself. In my opinion moreso than kneeling in silence at our anthem. They did not act deliberately in disrespect for our standing army, or our constitution, but the developing of a police state and the inept American justice system, wich one cannot reasonably dispute, has a great deal of corruption and abuse. Regard the ideals and liberties our nation holds dear over talk of patriotism. Remember we are in the wake of scandals never before revealed in American history, do not divide yourselves, UNITE.
Please explain why Will Fitz, what about this statement is stupid or incorrect? They are using their rights to protest. I doubt you complained when it was Nazis and white supremacists who were protesting.
Koldatt You are absolutely right. As a veteran, I think speech and peaceful protest, is not just their right, but a display of American Democracy in action.
listen I don't know you and I don't know why are you critizing me or my comment. For me Seth is a great entertainer and I respect him for that period. Really don't know what you want to acheive with your cmment. Take care...
Bumps in the night And yet here you are getting your fix. Who are we mere mortals to debate with the intellectual dynamo you clearly are. It's like talking to Stephen-fucking-Hawking.
If you can sit there and say that you supported Trump through everything, and THIS was the thing that pushed you over the edge...I don't know how else to look at you.
South Park actually made a joke about people who had previously supported Trump but then reversed that opinion of him when he began attacking their kind of people/position/profession a year ago, asking their audience: how far can you support a bigot, and when is what they say or do "too far" for you? Randy Moss (and the rest of us) may have just found out where was "too far" for Rex Ryan
Please can we have a solid hour of this segment??? It makes me so happy every night! I love Seth....ahhh to laugh out loud feels so good. Keep up the good work....and just a side note...i am Canadian.
So, remember all those times Trump didn't place his hand over his heart during the national anthem??? Or, how about when in 2013 when he tweeted that President Obama shouldn't be asking the washington redskins to change their name, because the country has bigger problems to worry about?..... #Covfefe
Stacy Chapman That's being unfair. Special Ed students are trying to overcome conditions they're born with. Trump supporters made a choice. A bad choice and they're proud of it until Trump stiffs them somehow.
the amount of people applauding trump's speeches is always surprising , seeing the amount of ignorant folks out there makes you lose hope for the future of humanity
I really don't think the hard-core supporters are that numerous. His rallies are a self-selected group so of course they cheer for him. He doesn't hold rallies in New York City for example.
TheGerm24+ I agree. His hard core supporters are a small group. He chooses the places to have them and invites his known supporters. If he held one of those pep rallies in the town I live in, it would be full of people protesting and boo-ing him.
I just don't understand how kneeling is any sign of disrespect. Kneeling is a sign of humility and respect and even subordination, but never disrespect! At least it is in Germany. But in Germany, we also have affordable health care and it is forbidden by law to display Nazi symbols.
Fan Wang EXACTLY FAN. TRUMP IS A RACIST DRAFT-DODGING COWARDLY FECKLESS WOEFULLY UNEDUCATED LYING GRIFTER NO COMMAS WASTED HERE, DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY.
Martin K. Why was Willy Brandt's knee fall disrespectful? Brandt had actively resisted the early Nazi regime, and had spent most of the time of Hitler's reign in exile. Brandt gained much renown for this act, and it is thought to be one of the reasons he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1971. Check it out: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warschauer_Kniefall
Brigitte Hartman This was an attempt at ironically employing Trumps writing style to show that kneeling is indeed not disrespectful at all. I had chosen Willy Brandt because I couldn't think of anybody more respectful.
Kneeling is respectful. Most Christian groups kneel before God in church. And Kaepernick changed his protest from sitting to kneeling when Nate Boyer, a former US Army Green Berret, told him soldiers kneel in respect on the graves of the fallen so kneeling would show respect to the armed forces while still making a statement.
Amber Ruffin is just an amazing comedic writer, performer, and should be an inspiration! You go Amber!! When you came out during a *closer* *look* I was like WHAT! Hahahahah She is definitely a huge contributing factor to why Seth's show has been amazing and seen a huge improvement all throughout 2017 along with the other great writers like Jenny.
100% correct but special thanks to Amber for weighing in. I don't know how she manages to be so funny while simultaneously speaking truth to power in such a terrible situation. I'm sure I'm not the only one impatiently waiting for the announcement that she's got her own show. She's a treasure.
I was a Marine. I signed on, willing to do whatever I was asked, wherever I had to do it. During my time, the world was quiet and I thank God for that. But I joined to support the idea that made (and make) this country great. And freedom of speech is one of those things. I don't like it when I hear hateful words, but I know that my efforts provided that opportunity. Now, to complain about people PEACEFULLY EXPRESSING THEIR VIEWS is fine. When I first saw Colin K. take a knee, I was shocked, but when I thought about it, I realized he was actually showing moral courage, trying to bring attention to what has become a despicable trend across the US, the outright murder of black people with zero consequences.
Thanks for your service. But we'll need to disagree. NFL players are free to peacefully protest or express their opinions the other 23 hours, 58 minutes of the day the anthem isn't being played. It's not 'moral courage' to be paid millions and know hundreds of cameras are pointed at you because of your job or celebrity.
hugh jorgan dude they were already gonna get paid that day, and kneeling puts their job at risk. It was more courage than any Nazi prick has shown so far.
I think Freud would recognise that Trump is such a margin call, a once in a generation freak, that it would be pointless trying to draw any conclusions from his uniquely fd up suite of psychological derangements, because they would have no broader applicability. Maybe a zoologist, or xenobiologist, might usefully take an interest, though...
Evan Fields BIGGEST FREUDIAN JOKE, WILL BE TRUMP A DRAFT-DODGING COWARDLY FECKLESS LYING UNEDUCATED GRIFTER, PRETENDING HE IS A COCKSURE PATRIOTIC AMERICAN.
Nilrebave... the funny part is no one has a problem when people are talking or texting during the National Anthem, but kneeling and being silent is a problem. LOL

The thing that baffles me is they rather force everyone to stand up for the anthem rather than fixing the problems they're addressing and make a country worth standing for.
i wish racism stayed in the 50s...but then this idiot had to bring it back when it 'was never there"....this one freaking guy had to re-introduce racism and ignorance and childish selfishness and materialism to America---something that clearly went away in the 50s then was liberal gravy since then....boy i tell you, this is definately the most racist and ignorant america has ever been and its really confusing (**no, actually...no, its not...its actually the exact country that it has always been)
He does know we're allowed to disrespect the country and the flag, right? That's one of our rights as Americans, and there's no law against it. Get your jingoistic bull crap outta here, Captain Cheeto.
republicans tend to look at america like a child, "my dad is the strongest, my dad is perfect he could beat up all the other dads!" so whenever anyone goes against this belief by pointing out "no, your dad is not that great... he beats your mother" it becomes a personal attack against them.
Fair and true point in the OP, but I personally fail to see how kneeling is disrespectful. In fact in every public situation I can think of it's quite the opposite.
Nancy Godsey ... no its how proud countries come together.... where the heck did you learn about how "wannabe dictators get started"? Wannabe Dictators class?
Gipsy Dangeresque Democrats tend to complain so much about so many imagined things conjured by their hurt feelings that others tend to tune them out and otherwise lose respect for their opinions... and instead of Democrats learning and prioritizing, they call their fellow countrymen "racist". Real fair!

The dog whistling is real. Racists love to talk about how minorities disrespect the flag but not consider the confederate flag disrespectful. The confederacy and nazis literally fought against Americans yet racists have no problem with the confederate flag etc. The american flag is nothing special anyway. Im tired of people acting like it deserves more respect than a living humans.
Well according to many liberal retards the American Flag is "just a flag" and it doesn't matter if it's disrespected so the Confederate Flag is "just a flag as well" so get over it.
You guys are really good at twisting words and taking jokes and making them serious and taking something serious and making it a joke. And not to mention pulling things out of thin air and saying he said them
Wow, getting real offended and triggered there. Once again the GOP proves how hypocritical they are. The minute people practice their own freedom of speech that goes against their own viewpoint they call it anti-nationalism.
For the rest of the world it is actually quite wonderful. American idiocy is finally out there in full force. It's the most ridiculous high-budget reality show ever made in the history of humanity. This is, for the rest of us, very good entertainment. Except for South Koreans. Those guys are fucked.
Alright, so let's do a recount: Mexico is still in the process of recovering from a devastating earthquake, Houston and Florida are still recovering as well from deadly hurricanes, the likes of which will continue as climate change becomes an even larger threat, Puerto Rico is in desperate need of humanitarian aid, North Korea is a hair's breath away from finally going off after months of nonstop baiting, oh, and we still have an opioid crisis we have yet to confront. Instead of dealing with any of these issues he's picking a fight with the whole of the sports world over an issue he has absolutely zero right to speak about. Anything I missed?
He was just trying to distract the nation from the failing health care bill, the White House email scandal, and the absolute mess his presidency has been from the git-go. He has always been a cheap con artist anyway. Sad.
Fellow Americans, please be aware of who we have as president and stop being one sided. I used to be somewhat of a supporter, I at least gave him a chance when he came into office, but he's doing nothing for me to say "Donald Trump you amazing". He's just an embarrassment to our country. Don't let him change your view on America 🇺🇸
Look at the angered racists ^^^ lol. Amber is actually in the midst of getting her own show, but I think it'll be a comedy special or series on Netflix instead of a talk show. Either way, I'll be supporting her 100%
BLAIR M Schirmer Look!!! The two biggest black sports are disrespecting the country and acting rude, being ungrateful, breaking the rules and acting like victims playing the race card... Wow big shocker!!!

If Seth ever gets the chance to publicly roast Trump again, it might devastate Trump enough to run for Pope.

"He wasn't coming over in the first place!" LOL That's spot on!
Trump is a terrible president because he would rather start twitter beefs rather than actually doing anything like helping the people of Puerto Rico
The Amazing Crarthur among many, many other things.
I don't think Trump considers Puerto Rican residents as US citizens.
Aishwarya Srinidhi I don't think that he considers anyone not white as citizens unless they're his wife's or groping victims
The Amazing Crarthur I'm certain he doesn't even realize Puerto Ricans are Americans.
Destroyer Venom that was the weirdest reading I've had so far this week. Let's hope the week doesn't keep on giving.
When they go low, we go *high*.
Lol wait, why is "hole" bleeped out but not "ass"?? 😂
That makes no sense. We bleep the word god if someone says goddamn, yet god isn't bleeped any other time.
An ass is an animal (a donkey) - hardly offensive...
Joe Joe look up the rules to televised censorship and the people that sponsored them in the first place.
Because ass is in the bible
The bleep guy was sleeping. He wasn't paying attention.
Damn, I love Amber. That whole segment was dope.
Years later watching but Amber killed it here. I’ve long loved your other pieces first now seeing this but go rock it!
When I watched the movie "Idiocracy", I never thought, I will live in it so soon!!!
John Smith
Sure your highness the king of the idiots!
John Smith so what does that say about you?
Since 1776 i'd say.
Amber that was genius! OMG! Respect!
If blm protested by message in a bottle trump would care about pollution..
Lol
He would call The Police.

Dezbome copy rights man my profile pic
Dezbome I'm stealing this
You mean the terrorist group blm
One of the best "a closer look" Great stuff Seth
listen I don't know you and I don't know why are you critizing me or my comment. For me Seth is a great entertainer and I respect him for that period. Really don't know what you want to acheive with your cmment. Take care...
Bumps in the night And yet here you are getting your fix. Who are we mere mortals to debate with the intellectual dynamo you clearly are. It's like talking to Stephen-fucking-Hawking.
ua-cam.com/video/g0KKUF3TqOQ/v-deo.html
This might be the best Amber has even been!! ❤🙌🙌
7:55 randy moss’s face says it all
If you can sit there and say that you supported Trump through everything, and THIS was the thing that pushed you over the edge...I don't know how else to look at you.
This was my thought too
Satya Das Lol he was like “wtf dude…”
South Park actually made a joke about people who had previously supported Trump but then reversed that opinion of him when he began attacking their kind of people/position/profession a year ago, asking their audience: how far can you support a bigot, and when is what they say or do "too far" for you? Randy Moss (and the rest of us) may have just found out where was "too far" for Rex Ryan
That face killed me 😂😂😂 he looked like he was about to knock someone's lights out
The amount of sass in this segment... I love it!!! 😂😂😂
Please can we have a solid hour of this segment??? It makes me so happy every night! I love Seth....ahhh to laugh out loud feels so good. Keep up the good work....and just a side note...i am Canadian.
7:55 That guy is like "You voted for who, motherfucker?"
"for whom"
I loved that part! The guy had a look of shock, horror and disgust on his face.
😂😂😂
KellySmith555 7:55 when you stare into the dark abyss as it approaches, and it says.. "I voted for Trump.."
He was in shock..
Amber's burns and punchlines KILLED me. I request more of Amber at all times.
Nia jsuFJRKDIEIDIĶ
Vote him out.
That was bloody beautiful, Amber!!
Darkfae 54 nope. She's talking bullshit and makes it all about skin color. She can die
Not that I care about the opinions of small minded loudmouths, but to keep the facts straight, I happen to be American, Mr. Shoes, born and bred.
I guess you hate your president then lol
LOL. I wouldn't say that. Rather let's say I REALLY REALLY want him out of the White House.
Darkfae 54 it was retarded she sound like a average black feminist
So, remember all those times Trump didn't place his hand over his heart during the national anthem???
Or, how about when in 2013 when he tweeted that President Obama shouldn't be asking the washington redskins to change their name, because the country has bigger problems to worry about?.....
#Covfefe
a Washington yea trump and his supporters are the special ed of America...
Stacy Chapman That's being unfair. Special Ed students are trying to overcome conditions they're born with. Trump supporters made a choice. A bad choice and they're proud of it until Trump stiffs them somehow.
By his own standards he should be fired
That's now "the land of the free, and the home of covfefe".
So stupid.
amazing as always Seth!!!!!
the amount of people applauding trump's speeches is always surprising , seeing the amount of ignorant folks out there makes you lose hope for the future of humanity
They're worse than ignorant, they're actively setting out to misuse the power of thought.
Saketh Kurapati I have a feeling many of them are paid to do so
I really don't think the hard-core supporters are that numerous. His rallies are a self-selected group so of course they cheer for him. He doesn't hold rallies in New York City for example.
It's not below him to pay people to applaud, you know ;) He's done that before at CIA hearings.
TheGerm24+ I agree. His hard core supporters are a small group. He chooses the places to have them and invites his known supporters. If he held one of those pep rallies in the town I live in, it would be full of people protesting and boo-ing him.
Guys do NOT throw your protests in e ocean, they won't be found. I've recently been informed that it's a BIG ocean.
7:54 That guys face had me choking on laughter
Guy on left: I support Trump
Guy on right: :l
I just don't understand how kneeling is any sign of disrespect. Kneeling is a sign of humility and respect and even subordination, but never disrespect! At least it is in Germany.
But in Germany, we also have affordable health care and it is forbidden by law to display Nazi symbols.
Fan Wang EXACTLY FAN. TRUMP IS A RACIST DRAFT-DODGING COWARDLY FECKLESS WOEFULLY UNEDUCATED LYING GRIFTER NO COMMAS WASTED HERE, DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY.
Karoleinchen Remember Willy Brandt kneeling in Warsaw in 1970. How disrespectful!
Martin K. Why was Willy Brandt's knee fall disrespectful? Brandt had actively resisted the early Nazi regime, and had spent most of the time of Hitler's reign in exile. Brandt gained much renown for this act, and it is thought to be one of the reasons he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1971. Check it out: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warschauer_Kniefall
Brigitte Hartman This was an attempt at ironically employing Trumps writing style to show that kneeling is indeed not disrespectful at all. I had chosen Willy Brandt because I couldn't think of anybody more respectful.
Kneeling is respectful. Most Christian groups kneel before God in church. And Kaepernick changed his protest from sitting to kneeling when Nate Boyer, a former US Army Green Berret, told him soldiers kneel in respect on the graves of the fallen so kneeling would show respect to the armed forces while still making a statement.
Amber Ruffin is just an amazing comedic writer, performer, and should be an inspiration! You go Amber!! When you came out during a *closer* *look* I was like WHAT! Hahahahah
She is definitely a huge contributing factor to why Seth's show has been amazing and seen a huge improvement all throughout 2017 along with the other great writers like Jenny.
100% correct but special thanks to Amber for weighing in. I don't know how she manages to be so funny while simultaneously speaking truth to power in such a terrible situation. I'm sure I'm not the only one impatiently waiting for the announcement that she's got her own show. She's a treasure.
lebron can be my president over trump any day
George to be fair, anyone other than Trump will do
George That bum aint fit to run a preschool how would he run a country?
Can we just have someone fit to be president that's all I ask
I'm pretty sure one of LeBron's discarded socks would be a better president than Trump. It's certainly more qualified to be human.
George not with those lame ass rings
Snaps all round for Amber!
I was a Marine. I signed on, willing to do whatever I was asked, wherever I had to do it. During my time, the world was quiet and I thank God for that. But I joined to support the idea that made (and make) this country great. And freedom of speech is one of those things. I don't like it when I hear hateful words, but I know that my efforts provided that opportunity. Now, to complain about people PEACEFULLY EXPRESSING THEIR VIEWS is fine.
When I first saw Colin K. take a knee, I was shocked, but when I thought about it, I realized he was actually showing moral courage, trying to bring attention to what has become a despicable trend across the US, the outright murder of black people with zero consequences.
Thanks for your service. But we'll need to disagree. NFL players are free to peacefully protest or express their opinions the other 23 hours, 58 minutes of the day the anthem isn't being played. It's not 'moral courage' to be paid millions and know hundreds of cameras are pointed at you because of your job or celebrity.
Kevin Hallisey I've seen so many Vets who take this stance.
Hugh - 18 US Code 227 and the 1st Amendment
Kevin - thank you for serving our country so EVERYONE can exercise their rights
hugh jorgan dude they were already gonna get paid that day, and kneeling puts their job at risk. It was more courage than any Nazi prick has shown so far.
Amber is amazing!!
She sure is!!! :)
Did he just call the president a bum?? Hahahahahahahhahaahha! So great
Chris Miller no it's disrespectful
Chris Miller you're a bum..
Chris Miller your the bum
Bahaha
Pardus xo come on... it's funny... didn't think I'd hear anyone call the president a bum.. lol
If Freud were alive today we'd have so many psychological terms with Trump in them.
I think Freud would recognise that Trump is such a margin call, a once in a generation freak, that it would be pointless trying to draw any conclusions from his uniquely fd up suite of psychological derangements, because they would have no broader applicability. Maybe a zoologist, or xenobiologist, might usefully take an interest, though...
Evan Fields BIGGEST FREUDIAN JOKE, WILL BE TRUMP A DRAFT-DODGING COWARDLY FECKLESS LYING UNEDUCATED GRIFTER, PRETENDING HE IS A COCKSURE PATRIOTIC AMERICAN.
Narcissism should be called Trumpism from now on . He's so good at it, that he's made Greek tragedies obsolete.
How is standing more polite than kneeling? I don't get it. If anything, kneeling is more respectful.
Black people gots to do as theys told. Doan ask no uppity questions or your next.
(WARNING: May contain traces of irony)
Ha. Good thing I'm not American, and I'm safe (am I?) behind online anonymity .
Taking a knee is too opt out. TIL
Nilrebave... the funny part is no one has a problem when people are talking or texting during the National Anthem, but kneeling and being silent is a problem. LOL
Nilrebave go to court and try taking a knee whee the bailiff says all rise
Amber is golden!

Nicholas, hahaha, I agree!
The thing that baffles me is they rather force everyone to stand up for the anthem rather than fixing the problems they're addressing and make a country worth standing for.
Trump still lives in the 50s, where you turned off your TV by cranking a knob.
I feel like you could be making better use of the words knob and crank in a sentence relating to Trump.
i wish racism stayed in the 50s...but then this idiot had to bring it back when it 'was never there"....this one freaking guy had to re-introduce racism and ignorance and childish selfishness and materialism to America---something that clearly went away in the 50s then was liberal gravy since then....boy i tell you, this is definately the most racist and ignorant america has ever been and its really confusing (**no, actually...no, its not...its actually the exact country that it has always been)
Ela Mongrella lame
Matthew McNeany I snickered. Thank you sir.
he has 1950s levels of racism too
He does know we're allowed to disrespect the country and the flag, right? That's one of our rights as Americans, and there's no law against it. Get your jingoistic bull crap outta here, Captain Cheeto.
republicans tend to look at america like a child, "my dad is the strongest, my dad is perfect he could beat up all the other dads!" so whenever anyone goes against this belief by pointing out "no, your dad is not that great... he beats your mother" it becomes a personal attack against them.
Fair and true point in the OP, but I personally fail to see how kneeling is disrespectful. In fact in every public situation I can think of it's quite the opposite.
Nancy Godsey ... no its how proud countries come together.... where the heck did you learn about how "wannabe dictators get started"? Wannabe Dictators class?
Gipsy Dangeresque Democrats tend to complain so much about so many imagined things conjured by their hurt feelings that others tend to tune them out and otherwise lose respect for their opinions... and instead of Democrats learning and prioritizing, they call their fellow countrymen "racist". Real fair!
This was my favorite "A Closer Look" yet!
The look on that man's face at 7:54 is priceless. "Oh, you supported him, huh? Is that so?"
Also, Amber is the best.
GET HIM LEBRON
Right!
That is too damn long to be on one knee lmao
the laaaayyyyyayayyyyyyyayyyyyayyyaaaannnnnnnnnd offffffffffff theyayayayayayayayaya free-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e and the hoooooooooooooooome of the bray-ay-ay-ay- talking bout the hpme of the BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAyyyyyyyyyyyve!
Remember when "disrespecting the flag" was a thing they cared about? Now they fly it upside down.
God: "What if House of Cards was a comedy?"
Trump: *becomes president*
I want to see the arguments from the almost 4,000 people that disliked this.
Amber is hilarious.
FIX THE PROBLEM NOT THE PROTEST. 💯
Winter Kress-Russick d
AMEN
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Winter Kress-Russick EXACTLY THANK YOU 👏🏽👏🏽
"That" isn't a problem . Unless you have some evidence, which I doubt.
The dog whistling is real. Racists love to talk about how minorities disrespect the flag but not consider the confederate flag disrespectful. The confederacy and nazis literally fought against Americans yet racists have no problem with the confederate flag etc. The american flag is nothing special anyway. Im tired of people acting like it deserves more respect than a living humans.
Well according to many liberal retards the American Flag is "just a flag" and it doesn't matter if it's disrespected so the Confederate Flag is "just a flag as well" so get over it.
You're american so by 80% chance you need a history lesson.
Deep South - Ya don't compare Nazi's to southerners. That's disrespectful to Nazi's.
Deep South 160 years later and the south still stuck in its ways smh, that's why the north "invaded" in the first place
Deep South, how about the southern way of treating other people like slaves
I love her so much oh my gosh
How to spot a shill: 130 likes and 3 comments.
"Don't nobody wanna eat at your dump with you!"
I really enjoyed Amber's act. Great stuff! She seems to be a good candidate for SNL.
Call him a bum. In Britain, to trump means to fart. Makes sense.
_TOO_ much sense...
lmao
They are turning off the NFL..to watch ME ME ME said the narcissist. OMG what have you done America..
dominic pelle That's what happens when a sociopath gets elected into the WH.
And a dumb sociopath who is happy to show what an arsehole he is to the WHOLE WORLD... you know ME the Donald of Donalds.
DAMN Amber went off!!!!!!! Hell yeah
Destroyer Venom STFU YOU UNEDUCATED RACIST BIRTHER TRUMP TROLL.
You guys are really good at twisting words and taking jokes and making them serious and taking something serious and making it a joke. And not to mention pulling things out of thin air and saying he said them
Pretty sure all of the dislikes were probably Donald Trump making a
different account and disliking the video😂
Zach Lavine no its just people with common sense who aren't brainwashed zombies like yourself
The Gaming Life you mean during the anthem? Thats sooo disrespectful
man up snowflake i mean sealing
Nope it was people who listen to both sides not just one point of veiw
Zach Lavine yea and all the illegal immigrants are liking these. You’re so ight
The U.S Flag Code is already being disrespected by the NFL since you're not supposed to lay the Flag Down Horizontally according to Flag Code
regular_max never forget trump humped the flag on stage. That sounds disrespectful huh?
regular_max or wear it as clothes.
Or print it on napkins....
Or into man bikinis
regular_max it’s a free country
Going to war with North... Carolina Panthers
Amber, you gorgeous woman.
Amazing delivery.
Now if only we can signal boost this like a million times.
Wow, getting real offended and triggered there. Once again the GOP proves how hypocritical they are. The minute people practice their own freedom of speech that goes against their own viewpoint they call it anti-nationalism.
First. I woukd like to say i am growing tired of Agent Orange Muller needs to end fake forty five i can't
Give him time to do it right.
It is not a laughing matter anymore.
Just Kamal for us Canadians it is xD
For the rest of the world it is actually quite wonderful. American idiocy is finally out there in full force. It's the most ridiculous high-budget reality show ever made in the history of humanity. This is, for the rest of us, very good entertainment.
Except for South Koreans. Those guys are fucked.
up here in good ol Canada, we're laughing our asses off eh, =D non stop entertainment you murikanos are
LOVED Amber's comments and song! Great job! :) Support for Lebron and Steph. Thank you Seth! LOVE a Closer Look!
Amber killed it!
Ehhh.... if she added blackface to her shtick there, I think it woulda fully completed the whole "black woman stereotype rant" thing.
Isn't government supposed to protect your rights not hinder the exercise of them.
Amber killed it
**Annihilated**
This will grow and grow and grow!
how is speaking freely for social justice against our flag or troops?? ridiculous
Cause the football players are only doing it to get more money and "support" from the retards of the world aka SJW's
AustinYT really, so atrocities don't happen where you live??
Alright, so let's do a recount:
Mexico is still in the process of recovering from a devastating earthquake,
Houston and Florida are still recovering as well from deadly hurricanes, the likes of which will continue as climate change becomes an even larger threat,
Puerto Rico is in desperate need of humanitarian aid,
North Korea is a hair's breath away from finally going off after months of nonstop baiting,
oh, and we still have an opioid crisis we have yet to confront.
Instead of dealing with any of these issues he's picking a fight with the whole of the sports world over an issue he has absolutely zero right to speak about. Anything I missed?
Wolfboss7 Nazi rallies, but I think you covered the rest.
Yes, well said.
He was just trying to distract the nation from the failing health care bill, the White House email scandal, and the absolute mess his presidency has been from the git-go. He has always been a cheap con artist anyway. Sad.
npbells Yes and no. Yes, he is distracting us. And not only...he still is a stupid racist as****
Tjerda van Eijkel-van het Schip. Yep. That goes without saying.
Hello, 911? It's Quagmire. Yeah, it's caught in the window this time......
www.GPcarAudio.com Giggity
www.GPcarAudio.com be ready for Trump doing the same call.
Trump is the "Kardashians" of America
Trump: fiddling while Rome burns.
Fellow Americans, please be aware of who we have as president and stop being one sided.
I used to be somewhat of a supporter, I at least gave him a chance when he came into office, but he's doing nothing for me to say "Donald Trump you amazing". He's just an embarrassment to our country.
Don't let him change your view on America 🇺🇸
He is a crazed lunatic.
YASS Amber, ugh she is so good, and such a good foil to what Seth says.
I love Amber. Can she have her own show?
cbutterflies 88011 please no. We have enough idiots on TV
Look at the angered racists ^^^ lol. Amber is actually in the midst of getting her own show, but I think it'll be a comedy special or series on Netflix instead of a talk show. Either way, I'll be supporting her 100%
Yes! Please?? Or a podcast or a series or something? She is hilarious! :D
Which amber??
cbutterflies 88011 she killed it there
Better be careful Seth, it could end up Late Night with Amber.
Oh my fucking god Amber is utter perfection hahaha
Danny Madison utter bullshit
"If a player wants the privilege?" LMAO!!!
Does Trump thinks that the American people has TVs with dialing channel system?
Trump said what???????
Trump said Liberalism is a sin.Was he converted to Catholicism ?
We did ask that here in Sweden too.
WTF?
BLAIR M Schirmer
Look!!! The two biggest black sports are disrespecting the country and acting rude, being ungrateful, breaking the rules and acting like victims playing the race card...
Wow big shocker!!!
yAdrienne Lopez Your fired. get out
Our military heroes fought for our right to protest. It's is as simple as that.
Trump has publicly disrespected veterans. He's a hypocrite.
Wow, trolls are really out in force if a little 10 thumbs up comment like mine attracted one. What's the matter "Destroyer Venom" couldn't cut it in any of the popular comment threads? Did they make fun of you for being an edge lord?
Seth!!! I love you!!😍❤️😍 You say it as it is!!
