Does Trump qualify as ridiculous and/or absurd?

Will post more when i have access to a real keyboard,but it was hilarious. He doesn't hate Trump as much as he finds him amusing. Much fun ensued.

He actually spoke about Trump several times. Cleese cracks himself up. Going to try and type out a couple of Trump rants...

"I love books, do you love books?" *applause* You guys have elected a president who *chuckle chuckle maniacal chuckle" who has never *chuckle chuckle" read a *chuckle chuckle* never read a book *giggle snort chuckle hysterical laughter."

At one point, into the Trump bit, a group of people got up to leave. It was fun to watch him heckle them... "Well, there go the Trump supporters! I'm not sure what they were expecting. This audience should be pre-selected to like me and know what I'm about."

Then, repeat the mid-sentence chuckling talked about how he wanted to make his ex-wife the Ambassador to the Czech Republic. *laughter laughter* Then, about 15 minutes later, in the middle of a sentence on a different topic, "the Ambassador to the Czech Republic, can you believe that?" giggle giggle.*

He talked about the rest of the Troupe and how silly they all were.

He went off for quite some time about leaders - in any area - leaders have no idea what's going on and how to make it better.

I rarely stopped laughing through his entire talk. The man is hysterical.

The movie itself had some extra bits. I know there's at least a couple of places that were inserted and I've never seen them before.

So much fun and highly recommended. We, very happily, did not get stuck sitting next to anyone narrating the movie for us.

He's been on the talk show circuit a lot, here are his comments on political correctness.

I remember when that guy was funny. Comedy in general is pathetic these days because of this stuff.
