Samantha Bee took aim at former President Donald Trump during her latest episode, leaving no stone unturned in her scathing critique. The "Full Frontal" host delivered one of her sharpest monologues yet, mocking Trump's legal troubles, political missteps, and larger-than-life ego. And, true to form, it didn’t take long for Trump to throw a tantrum in response.
Bee, known for her biting satire, dissected Trump’s ongoing legal battles and his recent public appearances with precision, calling out his attempts to remain relevant in a shifting political landscape. Her blistering commentary didn’t stop there. Bee ridiculed his continuous claims of election fraud and mocked his behavior at rallies, where he has doubled down on discredited narratives. “At this point, he’s basically a walking conspiracy theory in a bad suit,” Bee quipped, sparking laughter from her audience.
But it was her final zinger that seemed to have struck a nerve. “Donald, you lost. It’s time to pack up the circus and finally get off the stage,” Bee said with a smirk. Within hours of the episode airing, reports emerged that Trump was fuming.
Sources close to Trump revealed that he was livid after watching the segment, reportedly calling Bee “nasty” and “talentless” in a rant to his inner circle. He even took to his social media platform to slam the comedian, accusing her of being part of the “mainstream media machine” working to tear him down. “Samantha Bee is nothing but a failing, washed-up comedian with terrible ratings. She’s a disgrace to comedy and lies about me to stay relevant,” Trump posted in his typical bombastic style.
The tantrum didn’t stop there. Trump’s supporters quickly flooded social media with defenses of the former president, with some calling for a boycott of Bee’s show. However, this only served to amplify the comedian’s takedown as clips of her monologue began trending online, drawing more viewers to the segment.
As the drama unfolded, Samantha Bee appeared unfazed by Trump’s meltdown. She doubled down, retweeting clips of her takedown with a cheeky, “Glad you’re watching, Donald!”
