Colin Jost Compared Trump to Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy

Saturday Night Live's Colin Jost compared Donald Trump to serial killers Jeffrey Dahmer and John Wayne Gacy on Weekend Update, in reference to a study released Saturday that said the president's campaign rallies have been linked to 30,000 cases of Covid-19, and 700 deaths.
"That's our president, recently saved by doctors, saying doctors want more Covid for money," Jost said after playing a Trump clip during a Michigan rally on Friday. "Which makes me think Trump survived Covid to save money on doctors."
"Unfortunately Trump's gaslighting isn't quite enough to keep you warm because multiple Trump supporters who were stranded at a freezing cold rally in Nebraska were hospitalized from hypothermia, I assume because Trump told them jackets don't work," Jost said. "But don't worry, the president isn't trying to kill supporters, he's actually succeeded at killing his supporters."
"According to a new study, around 30,000 Covid cases and 700 deaths have been tied to Trump rallies," he continued. "That means he's officially killed more people across the midwest than Jeffrey Dahmer and John Wayne Gacy combined."
Weekend Update then combined Dahmer and Wayne Gacy's portraits to look like Trump.
"In the end, I guess Trump was right," Jost concluded. "He is not a typical politician because politicians don't usually spend the last three days of the election murdering their own voters."
Now the right will scream "unfair !"
No it is fair. People are dead today who wouldn't otherwise be because Trump ridicules the wearing of masks.

Never heard of colin jost before but wow, what an idiot he is.
He is on Saturday Night Live every week.
My opinion of him is just the opposite-- I think he's brilliant!
But often the two of them are very subtle-- many people appreciate a different style of humour, one that's quite the opposite.
(Perhaps the most extreme cases of this are more "blunt" styles of humour such as that of the 3 stooges).
To further elaborate: They often mock their own unconventional sty;e of humour-- calling it "dark" (which it often is....or just "really bad". And if we look at it on a superficial level, indeed it is.
However there's a deeper level which most people aren't interested in-- and there are subtle hidden messages....
(many people like to judge things as "good" or "bad"-- but my expeirence has been its really a matter of individual preferences. (For example I don't like what I consider to be the "crude" style of The 3 Stooges-- but some people love them).
Well in that case you should assiduously follow my column on NT-- I've recently seeded two of their episodes...!
(Note: I can tell you this: Many people accuse me of being quite humble... self-deprecating even. But that is totally FAKE NEWS! . That I can tell you)
Remember when SNL was funny and not a 90 minute infomercial for Democrats?
