Jewish comedian Sarah Silverman said that she was happy that she didn’t have to sew a star on her clothes in a blistering criticism of the Trump presidency.
Silverman was on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” on Friday discussing her recent award of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“In a time, Bill, where anti-Semitic crime is up 57 percent since this douchebag has taken office, it is not lost on me that I am very lucky that I get a star and I don’t have to sew it on my clothes,” Silverman said, referring to how Jewish people were forced to wear the Star of David emblem on their clothes by the Nazis.
“Oh no you didn’t,” Maher responded.
Silverman then responded to the audience’s gasp and laughter by saying, “I don’t know if it is gallows humor or funny because it is true.”
Silverman is the host of the program “I Love You, America” on Hulu where she interviews Americans on both sides of the political spectrum.
