Comedian Sarah Silverman attacked white women who voted for President Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election, calling them “too far gone.” She also insulted Trump by referring to him as, “President Dumb Sh*t.”
During a segment on her Hulu series “I Love You, America,” Silverman said she wasn’t worried about the women who voted for the president and that she was only focused on young people for November’s midterm elections.
“God, I wish I could get through to the 52 percent of white women who put Trump in office, but they’re too far gone, so instead I am looking to young people,” Silverman said.
Later in the show, Silverman attacked the appearance of newly appointed Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
“If I think of his frowny pink face and his Pert Plus hair one more time I’m gonna puke,” she said.
Silverman has attacked Kavanaugh on social media countless times since he was nominated by Trump.
Aside from many of her comments asserting he was unqualified for the Supreme Court, two reports from both the FBI and Senate indicated that there was no evidence to support allegations that Kavanaugh was sexually inappropriate toward women in the 1980s.
The self-described progressive then called on young people to get out and vote in November’s midterm elections. She said if young people don’t want to listen to her, they should listen to what singer Taylor Swift recently said.
“I know you don’t want to hear this from me, your Auntie Sarah — who happens to have a cherry bomb of a caboose, by the way—so take it from your buddy, Taylor Swift. Yes, Taylor’s a little late to the game and waited until the American leg of her tour was over to speak up but hey, better late than never, ever, getting back together, f**k, her songs are so catchy, look what you made me do.”

Earlier this week, Swift made headlines when she announced via Instagramthat she was endorsing two Tennessee Democrats, Senate candidate Phil Bredesen and House of Representatives candidate Jim Cooper.
Here’s part of Swift’s post:
“I believe in the fight for LGBTQ rights, and that any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender is WRONG. I believe that the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of color is terrifying, sickening and prevalent. I cannot vote for someone who will not be willing to fight for dignity for ALL Americans, no matter their skin color, gender or who they love.”
Silverman has made it clear on numerous occasions that she’s a progressivewho supports Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
She has also issued a number of controversial tweets, where just last weekend she wrote that she had fantasized about President Donald Trump being “held down” and violated.”
“I hope you someday understand what it is to be held down against your will and violated. Your compassion is startless,” she wrote.

Silverman closed out her segment by insulting Trump.
“You know who should shut up? Tax dodgers. Which would be great, because then we wouldn’t have to hear from big fat President Dumb Sh*t.”
