Fran is coming to a theater near me soon, so I checked out this video to see if I would enjoy her show. Her diatribe about Donald Trump and those who like him made it easy for me to save some money; not bothering to go to her show. I dislike Donald Trump‘s personality, but there is no way he is a danger to America or the world. In fact during his administration, things worked way better than during this Biden administration.

“ herds of hillbillies”. Wonderful observation!
So sad….no cc,what’s a deaf person to do?😢
♥️ Fran
Any time she is saying something, I feel a broom sweeping a cobweb in my brain.
If you ever want a definition of what a real New Yorker is : she is it!
I love Fran so much. She has said that holding grudges is in the same category as having standards....I totally agree with her on that and on SO many things.....I would love to sit around and have drinks with her. None of her videos are ever long enough.
When she was young she was very beautiful ,interesting and unique…still is …and just adorable.
Fascinating woman !
Love her!
Fran is coming to a theater near me soon, so I checked out this video to see if I would enjoy her show. Her diatribe about Donald Trump and those who like him made it easy for me to save some money; not bothering to go to her show. I dislike Donald Trump‘s personality, but there is no way he is a danger to America or the world. In fact during his administration, things worked way better than during this Biden administration.

I like the way she just came out and said, of TFG supporters, "They're wrong." Not sugarcoating or coddling by saying, "I _think_ they're wrong." Just flat out, "They're wrong." Because they are.
One of Americas best exports! ❤️
Luv you Fran ❤❤❤ I’m a dumdum that adores old age… it fits me really well… 😊🎉
I love you Fran - the brightest star in the UNIVERSE
She laid it out just right!

A complete original.
Fran is a treasure
I give this a thumbs up before I even watch it cause I'm sure it'll be a cut above intellectually.
I am an American, and a Bush Republican. I love Fran.
Imagine a mix of Kramer, Larry David and Joe Pitka ... that's Fran Lebowitz.

I think Senator Sandwers is fantastic & if Donald Trump was elected President would posit the question “If the USA is the leader of the free world when exactly has Western Democracy failed?”
She's not wrong. I use to live in San Francisco and the tourists were a danger to themselves. Of course they were a financial life line and are sorely missed by hotels and restaurants, but yeah, they were also kinda awful. We wanted them to stay in the tourist attractions like on the water front. They would make their way into neighborhoods and be in the way.
I love her humor, Have often wondered if she is really a grumpy old person or that is just her comedic person that we get to see and chuckle over. By the way I disagree w her politics-but she is still a very funny lady.
'He allows them to express their racism, which is apparently so pleasurable they dont care what else he does'!!! Nobody put it better!
