And to further YOUR political agenda, you had to post - something bad about Trump when Posted: Aug 13th, 2020 - 7:29 am In Reply to: Williams calls Trump scary - Mm
the subject was actually Biden.
And Zelda, just because Robins Williams was your dad, that does not make anyone immune from criticism. And Robin Williams was so awesome that his comedy now belongs to the ages, and that makes it a resource available to both sides of the political spectrum, not just the one that Zelda or her father adhered to. So, yes, his jokes about Trump can be used against Trump, and his jokes about Biden can be used against Biden.
What next? Shakespeare’s great great great granddaughter will show up and protest the use of a soliloquy of his against a Labour or a Democrat candidate for whatever? Nobody better touch the Miller’s Tale from Chaucer, or whole villages of yobs might rise up in protest, along with several members of the House of Lords?
Using Williams’ standup in a political campaign is actually a great compliment to him. He belongs to all of us, along with Chaplin and Laurel and Hardy.
