Flame-throwing comic Michelle Wolf won’t back down from her controversial White House Correspondents’ Association performance, defiantly saying Monday she was never sought to “cater to the room.”
Wolf stunned the black-tie crowd crowd with a barrage of harsh barbs at White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Vice President Mike Pence, the mainstream media and many others.
“I wouldn’t change a single word that I said. I’m very happy with what I said, and I’m glad I stuck to my guns,” she told NPR’s “Fresh Air.”
“I knew what I was doing going in. I wanted to do something different. I didn’t want to cater to the room. I wanted to cater to the outside audience, and not betray my brand of comedy.”
A day after the performance, which was blasted by President Trump, the WHCA issued a statement disavowing Wolf’s act.
The most harsh criticism came over her wisecracks about Sanders.
Wolf talked about her “smokey eye” look and compared her to “Aunt Lydia”– the homely taskmaster from the dystopian novel-turned-TV show “The Handmaid’s Tale.”
“I think one of the things about being a comic is getting to actually, as a woman, I have access to hit women in a way that men might not be able to hit them with jokes,” Wolf said.
When you're jokes have some truth to them mf's get offended.
