Idiot in the White House | Nicholas De Santo in Arlington, Virginia
Ойын-сауық
This was an open mic in Crystal City, a neighbourhood in Arlington County, Virginia. One of the gigs I did during my trip to Washington DC. Being an open mic, the sound and picture quality is not ideal, but as comedy at grassroots level, these nights have some charm of their own. I have also added subtitles to the video. It was fun to adapt my material to an American audience, in my only second trip to the US so far. I hope you like this set.
This comedy night is run by the Dead Horse Comedy, in Crystal City, Arlington. Thanks for getting me on stage.
If you have or know a venue in the US that could host me, please get in touch.
Thank you very much for your support. Let's make comedy great again!

Those people felt the awkward pressure of political correctness they have been exposed to. They didnt find the jokes uncomfortable, they found their own discomfort troubling.

Thank you for putting the American first! Unity is our real strength diversity is just the spice.
The only thing funnier than these powerhouse jokes is the uncomfortable audience straining to not laugh. You're crushing it, Nicholas, keep it coming. The world needs and wants this right now.
You are one brave man for doing right leaning comedy in that town. Bravo signore!

Comedy has to be rooted in truth though. That's what actually makes it funny. Whining about Obama is played out. What are you gonna do, cry that he created more jobs than Trump and didn't grow the deficit every year he was in office?

@@Pwecko Did he lie to America about a pandemic and steal supplies from the states for the fed while making his namesake clothing accessory line in China and being a legally found fraudster and rapist who surrendered to the Taliban? No one is perfect. But if we're talking idiots in the white house I will say one thing: Obama never bragged about being able to identify basic common items on a non-required competency test that his own doctor recommend he take while lying about his weight. You remember what shirtless Obama looked like? A real man.

@@Pwecko "killed lots of innocent people" On July 1, 2016, President Barack Obama signed an executive order requiring annual accounting of civilian and enemy casualties in U.S. drone strikes outside war zones ("Areas Outside of Active Hostilities"), and setting a deadline of May 1 each year for the release of such report.[26][27] However, soon after taking office, President Donald Trump designated large areas in Yemen and Somalia to be "areas of active hostilities," thus exempting them from disclosure.[27] The Trump administration also ignored the 2017 and 2018 deadlines for an annual accounting,[27] and on March 6, 2019, Trump issued an order revoking the requirement. Buddy, Obama was so much more of a man than Trump was. That coward. That pathetic little weasel who wouldn't even report what we were doing after Obama manned up and went transparent. Nothing you say will change this. This is reality. And your hero is a punk coward. A drone-striking "nice-guy" lying little weasel coward who - for the record - is also a legally found fraudster and rapist who (it bears repeating) surrendered to the Taliban.
You are a BRAVE man to tell the truth to people who genuinely don't want to hear it. Please don't stop.
This dude has bigger balls than any comedian ever.
The fact the crowd was silent and you soaked up the awkwardness made it even better. I hope the rest of your events or gigs go so well
Excellent set, Nicholas! Too bad most of that audience was too stupid to understand it... As you said, it's rather an indictment of the American public school system! I didn't stop laughing watching this! 😂👍🏻 Great work, as always!
What,s up, Nicholas. If these wokes dosen't like your jokes at a live performance, we, in Brazil, appreciate you. I introduced you to few of my friends and all of them liked you. Remain brave!
DeSanto is one of the funniest comedians working today, and the bravest, too. He doesn't have the track record/success and resultant resistance to being cancelled as, say, Chappelle or Burr, yet he calls 'em as he sees 'em. Funny. funny guy! Keep at it, Nicholas!!!
DC is not the place for a right wing comedian. Lol They weren’t too happy about the Obama joke. lol

I am constantly inspired by your display of courage, always going in front of crowds that maybe not be accustomed to hearing... facts!

Awesome. It was mostly a trolling act for that crowd, which just made it better for me.
If the audience laughs at your jokes in Virginia they will get cancelled and fired from their jobs. They were crying on the inside wishing they could laugh out loud
Nicholas... you are a brave man.
Well done Nicholas. Not easy selling snow to Eskimos but you did it,and in DC. Or as the late great Richard Pryor called it, “DC. Dark Country!”
The goat of "will actually say it" lol.
Love the honest comedy. That last one was nice.

Hahaha bro you easily the smartest and funniest comic out there. Not your fault most the crowd not intelligent enough to understand your jokes.
Keep punching through Nick, I laughed through the whole set
i love that joke about "the message" of interracial couples on TV. it deserved a bigger response here. this audience was ice cold.
Brilliant set, could sense the awkwardness. Always laugh at the Obama joke, you got balls
I love your political satire. We need it nowadays and its getting hard to find
My favorite comic.
What a breath of fresh air you are, just discovered you today, keep up good work, new Kiwi fan :)
Telling this joke near Arlington , this is classic ! Love this .
He cuts right to the truth and you can tell people are uncomfortable.
Wow in Northern VA? That couldn’t have been easy. But the jokes were fire 🔥 I laughed.
Nicholas de Santo? Saint Nicholas? You bring such lovely presents down the chimney. I've followed your stand up since your earliest yewtoob appearances. Keep it up! You might see the pendulum shift and be offered a replacement TV show like the lefties, Maher, John Stew-art, Steven Cold-burp, fellow countryman...I can see it now! St-Nick and the News! You come on, have a special anti-tomato shield, a net to catch rotten eggs, and free dictionaries for the live audience to check the actual meaning of words
Great set, thanks for posting!
Dude keep at it. Brutal jokes. Loved it😆
Fearless and hilarious
Great set. I laughed cause it was funny, and true.
Good stuff. Even though I've heard some of these from you before, i still enjoy them every time i hear them again. 👍🏼👏🏼🤟🏼😃🕺
Hero. Keep it up.

@@tlilmiztli The Americans who you say invented woke nonsense wouldn't dream of going to see Nicholas. they'd hate his material and if they showed up it would be to heckle.
That was like throwing a barbecue party at a Peta rally. Dude's brave.
Truth and justice is going to come back with a roar.
This guy is not only fearless but incredibly intelligent with his comedy. I think the crowd was afraid to laugh even though and probably because his jokes are so factual. Nothing funnier than the truth. Everyone needs to lighten up and appreciate the humor that comes from pointing out our differences and flaws instead of being offended by jokes. Life is too short not to laugh at some of the things that are crazy and fucked up about all of us and all different cultures. It's all in good fun. This guy has balls of steel lol
A GREAT act. Love your routines.
Big respect my friend! Original an very likable 👌
Very funny and witty, I always enjoy listening to you using truth as a form of humor. Unfortunately liberals are easily offended by facts.
Intelligent comedy needs the right audience!
I don't remember which comedian said it, but it went along the lines of, 'I prefer an uncomfortable laugh. It means I've struck a nerve.'
What's it like to stand in a room and Listen to people Laught at their on distruction ?
They're so use to the echo chamber and not saying what they think, they are completely frozen. Keep doing what you do!
Great act, Nicholas. Keep going …
I'm harsh on comedians but this guy's going somewhere. Funny sht w a side of truth. Doesn't give a fk cause he knows he's funny.
You're crushing it, Nicholas. US neds you. 😄
I saw this was in Alexandria and almost didn’t watch it because I knew how the crowd would be and I don’t care for awkwardness. Well, I wasn’t wrong, but glad I watched anyway because it was a great set. Keep it up man, you are amazing.
God bless you.
Thank you for tipping your cap to the service men and women in Arlington National Cemetery. These government bureaucrats had to choke back their fat cat coward guilt with that joke.
Love that he has a complete different perspective than us Americans! It's one that is unheard of these days sadly thanks to our diversity training.
The balls on this guy! Haha…..that’s what it’s all about. Bravo!
Never stop mate! the awkwardness felt by that browbeaten US audience is delicious.
I think they dug up Arlington to find audience members.

Nice
Love his humour... Got them good... 😂
Id love to see a Vaudevillian double act called DeSanto and Hyde. Sams standup is very similar and doing jokes the locals dont want to hear is part of the fun.
Phew, tough gig! Bravo 🙌
Yoooo! This guy is hilarious! Tough, sensitive crowd
Love this comedian. Actually he is more like an educator of the totally ignorant and brainwashed. Superhero in my book.

I did not know that you were coming to DC....!!!! I live in DC. I would have love to attend your event in DC or Crystal city ( A neighborhood in Arlington County, Virginia ). Crystal City is just a few miles away from DC. I am Hispanic and I do not celebrate Hispanic Heritage month which is from September 15 to October 15. I am an immigrant woman born and raised in Honduras living in DC since December 5th 1998. I love DC. About the nasty smelling of weed in DC joke made me laugh out loud because that joke is so true.
Bravo
I'm here for it!
Keep going man, we're hiding but we're here. You'll draw us out eventually and we'll come.
Funny and real❤
I would of laugh my ass off 😂
Hilarious!
My man, love the new stuff! Keep at it and have a nice one!
The catholic biology joke might have killed it there Those ungrateful plebs, i would have loved to see you in person!
That is why I called 08-16 The Era of Idiocracy. Shame it occurred again in 2020. P.S. As an American fan, it would be cool to visit your show in London and find myself the only one laughing.
