I guess if you’re not REALLY funny, it’s easy to try to connect with the audience over politics.

Except…

Loud booing from a vocal, but small minority of the arena crowd started about halfway through the show, when Schumer’s raunchy humor veered into more topical matters, including gun control and the presidential election. She has been a vocal advocate for stricter gun laws since a man opened fire during a showing of her movie Train Wreck last year, killing two young women, Mayci Breaux and Jillian Johnson, in Louisiana, and was an early Hillary Clinton supporter,

She made it clear she doesn’t understand how people can support Trump. At one point, she asked for a Trump supporter – preferably one with sleeves, she told security personnel – to join her up on stage to explain their enthusiasm for Trump. One fellow did, but he said he was voting for Trump mainly because he doesn’t trust Clinton. When some audience members booed, the actor/comedian invited them to leave and also asked security to remove anyone booing.

This has been the craziest campaign season in memory — if Schumer can’t make this funny, she must really be struggling. Also, she asked people in the audience to stand if they have been victims of sexual assault.

Wow — that’s HILARIOUS, Amy. I’m sure that’s exactly what these people wanted to hear at what was supposed to be a comedy show.
