Tracy Morgan takes on Donald Trump, Charlie SheenComedian Tracy Morgan has some not-so-funny words for headline-making stars Donald Trump and Charlie Sheen. In a new interview with PopEater, the "30 Rock" star puts each of the scandal stirrers in his place. In recent weeks, potential GOP presidential candidate Trump has questioned whether President Barack Obama was born in the U.S. and has demanded to see his birth certificate. "Tell him I've got it and it's in Brooklyn, and if he wants to see it come and get it," Morgan said. "Let's see if his a— will come down to Brooklyn and get it. He needs to leave the President alone, he's the President. Come on, man, nobody got no time for Donald Trump. Go build buildings, go play with your Lego set. We don't give any credence to that." As for Sheen and his "Violent Torpedo of Truth Tour," Morgan says, "I think that's a train wreck and I feel bad for his two little kids because they're the bodies being pulled out of the train wreck. What's going to happen to them? But everybody thinks it's a joke. While this a—hole is going on stage making a fool of himself, his kids are going to suffer and don't even know it because this is a cycle of abuse." What do you think of Morgan's remarks?

I am extremely impressed along with your writing abilities as smartly as with the layout for your weblog. Is this a paid subject or did you customize it your self? Either way stay up the excellent high quality writing, it is uncommon to see a nice weblog like this one today..
I recalled a a charged levied apainst trump in the early 70s wereas his sideburns were down to there-not to mention his fu-manchu handle bar thingy.
Trump has obvious stepped on alot of toes to get where is at today.His is not a crowd pleaser or a charming person-his implications stem that aperson can be bought and sold and everybody has their asking price.He has no basic depth of character and is very shallow in his judgements.
Trump is parading dirty laundry whereas he shouldnt go again-i never thought the guy wouldnt stoop that low. One thing for certain the life of politics makes strange bed-fellows -the curse worked his eyebrows are growing together! Some friendly advice,donald stay out of garbage cans and seedy laundrymats for your information that costs you about a dime. If you werenot paying off exwives.After it was common knowledge that Ivana soaked you pretty-good too due to irreconsirable differences, so she says but i doubt that very much.But apparently she wasnt satisfied with wee-willie wonka.
Well said! Tracy certainly spoke for me. Britney Spears had her kids taken away for less than what Charley Sheen has done over the years. He should have a court-ordered vasectomy. If he was a nobody, child protective services would have taken kids out of his custody ages ago and he'd be doing time for being abusive to women. The guy's a pathetic coward. As far as Trump is concerned: what can you do? He's the PT Barnum of our time and the First Amendment defends his right to run his mouth no matter how ridiculous anything he's been saying is. Siiiiigh. at least he's a good father and doesn't need to beat women to feel like a man.
I don't understand why we are requesting the birth certificate from the current President, but we have never made such a public forum out of passed Presidents, Vice-Presidents and Senators. Is this becuase his skins is a little darker then the prior Presidents. Why isn't anyone requesting to see Joe Binden's birth of certificatie? What have the Amercian people been reduced too? We need to start worry about rising food and gas prices, families living on the street or living with no lights, military personnel in several wars. Come on people lets get a grip and really think about the things that are going on in our country.
RTG, I agree with you about 98%. The reason it's not 100% is that no one mentioned any racial context. If a black man criticized the previous administration and it was okay (Jesse Jackson), then why shouldn't anyone be able to criticize the current administration. The problem is tolerance. As Americans we are only tolerate to the speech/actions of people we agree with. The overuse of labels doesn't help either (Liberal, Conservative, Moderate, Left-leaning, Right-wing...). When we can remove the labels and everyone just be Americans, then we will have a chance at fixing the problems that confront us today.
"He needs to leave the President alone, he's the President. Come on, man.." I guess it only matters since Tracy likes this president. I would bet he wouldn't have defended any republican president if people were 'bothering' him. hyprocrite.
Tracy Morgans humor, much like RAP, appeals to the lowest common denominators or society.
Wow you guys are brutal! Tracy has a point regarding Donald and Charlie.
Donald Trump is messy. Like a high school girl. There are sooooo many other things to focus on with this administration. But I guess it's his perogative to harp on this.
As for Charlie Sheen, Tracy has been where Charlie is and some how found his way out and stays sober day by day. I don't think he's speaking from the mountain top....I think he's right there in the valley and is only speaking from experience. And what he's saying is the truth.
Here is a idea. Come over and watch Gay Tracy bend over and take my dong up his buttshaft. He loves it.
Newsflash! Donald was wrong.Lets focus on the important issues and let the "Clowns" run back to the Circus.God Bless the President and the United States of America!!!
We just have to accept the fact that Tracy Morgan is not funny. Otherwise he makes a fair point actually. Since Donald Trump is bringing up the birth certificate issue I have no faith in his prioritization and C Sheen is DEFINATELY a train wreck but we are all enjoying it but what about the kids? (www.stuff-about.com)
Ok someone told me Trump likes to take dumps on fat broads.
I screwed Tracy in the butt a couple times. He loves it.
trump is nothng more nothing less than a broken down old man with a pocket full of ill gotten gains-money wise.Well ,Donald i cannot be bought and it looks like to me that you are finally going to have to stand in line like the rest of us.Why dont you bad-mouth yourself.Dont you realize to judge is to be judged, Donald.
White House releases Obama birth certificate April 27,2011
For all you idiots that believed the idiots that told you different!!!
Trump is a quasi-moto kind of personage that is only now coming to terms with his immortality-just the other day gave himself a scared look upon realizing the sad premise that when he dies he wont be able to take the money to where he will go.
Tracy give great head. He can suck and suck and suck down on my goober so good. He make me feel so fine. He make me feel like a nachrul man.
right on tracy. word up! he got it right for both of them especially about sheens kids.
They're both rich! Do any of the posters have close to what they have. Hmmmmm????
Tracy is funny & he is right about Trump !.
Tracy Morgan shut up, and yeah i think Trump is a clown (But Obama sadly is not competent) but Tracy pot meet kettle guy.
Go Tracy! Go Tracy! Go Tracy! Donald Trump's wig's too tight! It cut off the oxygen to his brain.He's proof you can have all the money in the world and no sense at all.Get the Donald an inhaler he's sick or some'thin? ! ! !
Truth
Wow, I never thought I would read an article telling me something that Tracy Morgan said, and me actually finding it to be at least semi- inteligent. I agree with what he had to say on Sheen and Trump.
Someone forgot to tell Donald Trump that Hawaii is not a separate country but is actually a state in the United States of America (the country). Not because it is not located in the land mass in North America (with most of the states) doesn't mean it is not a part of the country. No joke, I seriously believe that Donald Trump doesn't know that Hawaii is actually a part of the USA. You tell 'em Tracy Morgan and I totally agree with you also on the Charlie Sheen issue.
tracy lov the show u host Scare Tatics!!donald trump is someone ill neva care bout & charlie sheen!!!
Morgan said: "He needs to leave the President alone, he's the President."
Yeah, I remember when Morgan went out of his way to say that during the previous administration when everyone was coming down hard on Bush. Say what you will about Tracy Morgan, but he is consistent!
...on Opposite World...
Go tracy
Go Tracey!!! I'll even spring for the legos for Trump if he'll just go away.
You all couldn't be more stupid even if you smoked weed all day! who cares what any of these phuckers thinks! Party On Dudes!
I think Tracy's right on all counts! I just wish the 24 hour non news spewing machine understood that these idiots would not be newsworthy if they were doing their job which at some point in the annals of history involved journalism.
LOVE the comments by Tracy.
Y IS DUMP WORRIED ABOUT HIS PLACE OF BIRTH? HE NEEDS 2B WORRIN ABOUT HIS GAY THATS RIGHT HIS GAY SON. TRUMP UR A BIG DUMMY!!!!
And folks, the Donald is a complete party flip-flopper. When one party gets into office, he registers as the other one. Yes, Trump was a Dem when Bush was in office and prior to that, under Bill Clinton, he was a Repub.
It might have not been the prettiest packaging but the contents were wonderful. Morgan may not be the most eloquent speakerbut he is certainly correct in his observations.
ANNNNNNNNNNND FOR ALL YOU BIRTHER IDIOTS. DO YOU THINK THE SECRET SERVICE DIDN'T LOOK INTO OBAMA'S PAST YOU FRIGGIN IDIOTS? TRY GETTING A PASSPORT WITHOUT YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE NONE THE LESS BECOME "PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES"!!!!! YOUR ALL DUMB AS A STUMP AND YOU'RE THE REASON PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE TO TAKE AN IQ TEST TO BE ABLE TO VOTE.....JOHN MCCAIN WAS BORN IN PANAMA WHY IS THAT A PASS CAUSE HE'S WHITE? OH YEAH THE MILITARY PASS FOR WHITE GUYS I GET IT. GO VOTE FOR PALIN YOU MORONS.SHES HOW MUCH JOHN MCCAIN THOUGHT OF YOU AND YOUR COUNTRY.............
I agree with 'Twisted'. Tracy is a comedian. However, let me point out a couple of things to the racists of this panel:
1-Tracy's language is no more incorrect than the language that is spewed on the plentiful 'Red Neck Comedy' tours. Really...
2-Apparently Trump couldn't convince Americans that his hairpiece was actually his real hair, so he's trying his next lie.
Sorry Donald... I'm not buying this one either.
Lighten up People!
I saw Tracy on an interveiw admit he had alcohol problems in the past JIm so I don't know where you don't think he drank? Tracy Morgan couldn't spell METHOD never the less act under its teachings,I believe he also had a transplant of some sort maybe due to his past problems? I certainly don't hate Tracy Morgan but I have zero respect for his so called comedic talents. Chris Rock comes to mind of comedic talent not Tracy Morgan!
Doctor – surely this Sal man has no funny bone !
That is correct ! and dont call me Shirley
Tracy Morgon is a comedian people clam down
i will not CLAM down!! how dare you speak to me like that. charlie gonna get your ass
Although I'm not a supporter of Trump. I do find it rather ironic that these left leaning celebrities who have for years been able to slander and bash any politician they saw fit are now getting a taste of their own venom. We have put so much emphasis on celebrity and our entertainment culture has done more
damage and erosion to the values are morals of this country then any foriegn army or ideals. If the media spent the resources on covering how the masses felt about the direction of our country instead of covering bickering celebrities then just maybe we could unite under our once proud flag and move forward as the great republic we could be.
Get real! LEFT LEANING CELEBRITIES? He was asked his opinion and gave it as such... his OPINION. Why do you call someone LEFT LEANING, because you don't like their point of view? What's wrong can't justify that high horse you are sitting on. Why do you call out the LEFTY and IGNORE the RIGHTIES. Palin, Bachman, Hanity... they are celebrities who constantly slander and bash any politician they saw as unfit.
OH SHUT THE F@#$ UP!!!!
To those who think Tracy should not comment on it, first realize that He was ASKED his thoughts as a comedian by another comedian... John Stewerd on the Dailey show. To the Idiot co complained that Tracy treated violence... It was a COMEDIC response to a cartoon character (Trump) acting out bad comedy(Trumps actions). Tracy doesn't say the president shouldn't be critized.... H is saying stop critizing the president over this BS. And once again Tracy's a comedian so relating Trump to Lego's is saying (at best) go build something and ( at worst) go play with something you actually know about.
Should Tracy be taken as THE VOICE OF REASON, no and he doesn't expect to be. but that doesn't make what he said any less valid ... just be cuase it was funny.
oh and i bet his comment on Chalie has as much cercern as disgust mixed into the comedy, Its tough to watch someone you know, love, or simply respect self destruct and take their family down with them.... often there is nothing one can do but be there for the family, and pray for the person.
Tracy Morgan is one of the most stupid and least talented SNL cast in decades. He couldn't make me laugh if my life depended on it. I don't see what anyone sees in this dim wits so called mumbling humor? Not one of his characters on SNL were funny and every character he did was the same character just dressed different. Far as I heard he was a bad drunk so who is he to give advice when he was as bad as Sheen only with booze. He still sounds drunk to me and makes no sense what so ever! Donald Trump is one of the biggest and now proven complete idots that NY should banish him to the Phantom Zone. He talks with the mind set of a low level street thug and expects intelligent people to believe him. Hes such a joke as you will all find out that and him running for President is about as empty as Geraldo's Capone vault. Hes not running for anything but ratings for his as%$%&hole TV show. He doesn't say anything intelligent ever if you really pay attention to him. Its always "stay tuned" and I will let you know at a later date cause hes got NOTHING, NOTHING,NOTHING intelligent to say. His casino went bankrupt and he wants to tell the President how to get the economy going? Hes lost in his hair weave for sure. Hes one BIG BAD EXPENSIVE JOKE!!!!!!
You tell them Salman!!
If you don't like Tracy, that's your choice. But such hatred shows a side of you that begs the question.... what is wrong with you. Clearly you don't know Tracy, nor do I. The things you say about him, are they true. I saw the interview on the dailey Show when he was asked the question, he was not drunk. and he doesn't sound drunk. tracy Morgan is a METHOD ACTOR/COMEDIAN. He plays a role. If you don't like the role, thats cool. But don't assume the ROLE is the MAN.
whoa, i bet de pockets gonna be whuppin up on you. you am what be a turd.
THere has NOT been one talented SNL cast member since the freaking early 90's and back. SNL today is just asome stupid retards who cant even make a damn decent joke!
There has not been a talented SNL cast member since the 90s?? You may not be a fan of Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Rob Riggle and Kristin Wiig, but a lot of us are. Tina has one of the most successful sitcoms on the air, and she's brilliant on it. And in my opinion the Tina/Amy combination was the most entertaining Weekend Update team since Dan and Jane.
@Sal: Clearly, you've never seen Brian Fellow's Safari Planet
Thanks for speaking up Tracy!
He is better than you, but then who's you? crap
Well he's right, but I don't think anybody really cares what Tracy Morgan has to say about "serious" issues.
Plenty of compelling arguments as to why Trump is an idiot for being a birther. This is not one of them.
Trump suffers from Narcissistic Personality Disorder, the same illness that Mrs. Todd Palin suffers from....Narcissistic personality disorder is a condition in which people have an inflated sense of self-importance and an extreme preoccupation with themselves.A person with narcissistic personality disorder may:
•React to criticism with rage, shame, or humiliation
•Take advantage of other people to achieve his or her own goals
•Have excessive feelings of self-importance
•Exaggerate achievements and talents
•Be preoccupied with fantasies of success, power, beauty, intelligence, or ideal love
•Have unreasonable expectations of favorable treatment
•Need constant attention and admiration
•Disregard the feelings of others, and have little ability to feel empathy
•Have obsessive self-interest
•Pursue mainly selfish goals
watcha get al cerious for pockets? man you bringin me down. now i gots to see charlie fo some mo crack
pockets, you just described my mother-in-law...
The point is, nobody got time for Donald Trump. Translation: what's the point of making arguments for or against him when it is clearly a waste of time for everyone. He needs to concentrate on firing Gary Busey.
Morgan is just a useless turd.
i bets dat charly cheen has some be use be for im in his crack pipe. stink on him pockets!
First he threatens violence. Then he says the President should never be criticized. Then he likens the real estate business to playing with Lego's. Sounds like a sharp guy.
Hey there sharp guy, there is no apostrophe in Legos.
hay bro, he good, whatcha all be talkin bout? Y'all got somethin bout proper englizh, hey bro that's what rap is all about bro, ya understan what i'm sayin, y'all fool, i'm just sayin, ya all understan what i'm sayin. hey bro i got my hat on backwards, and my pants down my ass y'all
'sup pockets...yo, yo, yo – word. you done tole hi strait up. you be da man
"hay bro, he good, whatcha all be talkin bout? Y'all got somethin bout proper englizh, hey bro that's what rap is all about bro, ya understan what i'm sayin, y'all fool, i'm just sayin, ya all understan what i'm sayin"
No.
Bill,
Perhaps you and DT should both put out a few bucks for a sense of humor...gees...RELAX!!!!!
Threatening violence? Seems like you have no sense of humor and takes things too literally. Common problem in white uptight conservatives.
Look dummy all Tracy is saying it's fine to critize someone from a ivory tower but try doing it from the inner city that's not a threat it's an invitation. As far as the commit about the lego's it called humor or being facetious!!!!
AMEN TO TRACY...
Charle is just a mess...... but Trump is a world class jerk....whats funny is that DT thinks he's a tough guy as well. Not even close Donald.
Tracy you are right, there are more important things to talk about then if the US president was born in the US. Yes, he was. Trump needs to talk about what he can do to help the problems not just run off at the mouth.
Charlie Sheen, no one is laughing it is way past itme to get help. You have kids man, help yourself so you can see your girls and your boys grow up. BE THERE FOR THEM, LIKE A MAN.
Well said Pamela. Charlie is definitely a train wreck and he needs a lot of help. And I think Tracy's comments are warranted considering the behavior exhibited by both Mr. Trump and Mr. Sheen(Estevez). Self depricating humor is only funny when you've gone through it, and then recovered a better person. George Carlin was the king of that.
Atleast Morgan knows proper grammar.
it's not supposed to be "proper grammar" it's called "street venacular". there is more than one way to express oneself. that's why there is so much fear and hatred in this country because the once majority is fast becoming the minority and what was isn't going to be the way of the future.
A PACK OF WOLFS ONCE TOOK OVER A TACO BELL AND SUCCESSFULLY RAN IT
People only found out because the wolves started putting ACTUAL meat in the tacos.
Best Line Ever!!!
Here here. Tracy Morgan is way more intelligent than Trump and has more money then Sheen will ever have.
you are a moron. i'm not a fan of trump or sheen, but neither of your statements is close to accurate
Right on Tracy – you tell em !
Charlie has 5 children actually, not just two Tracy mentions!
He just wishes he was white, too. Whatever, Tracy.
