“I Felt Like Vomiting,” Ben Stein Crushes Liberal ‘Comedians’ At White House Correspondence Dinner

Economist, speech writer and actor Ben Stein commented on the appalling anti-Trump speeches at the White House Correspondents Dinner. He started by going after “The Daily Show’s” Hasan Minhaj.

“I thought what Mr. Minhaj said was sickening. Frankly, I felt like vomiting, and I couldn’t watch it for very long. I think it’s stunning to belittle and attack and mock a president at such a base and villainous level, and to describe him as a Soviet agent and ‘liar-in-chief,’ especially to the media,” said Stein.

“The media is not his enemy. He has cleverly made the media his main ally, and the media is laughing as if they think they’re somebody great and holy and neutral and above it all. But they’re not above it all,” said Stein.

“[The media] are a sharp instrument of the left in this country, but Trump has managed to turn it on its head and make them the bad guys out there in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and places he was never expected to win. They’re laughing, but they should be laughing at themselves, not laughing at him. I am not a big fan of Trump. But even Nixon was not held up to the same level of ridicule, mockery, and vicious attacks than Trump is. They just don’t give the guy a break,” said Stein.

 “Every day you pick up the New York Times. And every day they’re slamming, slamming, slamming him. I’m a great fan of CNN. But CNN is slamming him, slamming him, slamming him. Every day they are looking for a scandal. They are turning the woods upside down looking for a scandal — and they still haven’t found any real scandals,” said Stein. Check out the video below.
