“Everybody says Indian persons are good, hardworking, extremely clever. I’ve proved, with out a shadow of a doubt, that we might be simply as incapable and incompetent because the whites,” he continued earlier than giving the fake Hegseth a excessive 5.
Ansari’s Patel was requested about stories that Donald Trump is “offended” with him, an obvious nod to the president’s alleged disappointment within the FBI director’s beer-guzzling locker room celebration with the U.S. males’s hockey crew.
“Hell no! President Trump loves me, everyone loves me, even the correspondents’ dinner shooter stated, ‘Kill everybody however Mr. Patel,’” the comic stated. “You get a shoutout like that in a psycho’s manifesto, you have to be doing one thing proper.”
As he continued to face questions, the mock FBI director harassed a number of issues he’s “by no means” carried out on the job.
“And this FBI director has undoubtedly not stood on prime of a sofa on the VIP room of the sofa on the VIP room of TAO Nightclub and Asian Bistro and shouted, ‘Who needs the nuclear codes? JK! I ain’t obtained ‘em!’” he declared.
