The new series of Sacha Baron Cohen "Who's America?" Find the comic chameleon back to his pranking ways, putting up "gotcha" interviews with various people, famous and not so famous, and getting them to go ahead with stupid stuff. And as on "Da Ali G Show", Baron Cohen plays several different characters – four, in fact, in this first episode.
All of these characters mean that every episode finds Baron Cohen interviewing a variety of people, and making them look stupid. His characters have some ridiculous jokes to dispense with in this effort, largely born of caricatures of people and their politics that he brings to the show. Here are the best jokes of the first episode of "Who's America" by Baron Cohen.
The 99% Solution
By interviewing Bernie Sanders, the character of Baron Cohen, a right-wing guy from Infowars called Dr. Billy Wayne Ruddick Jr., Ph.D., discusses income inequality. Ruddick tells Sanders that he has a plan to get everyone in America in the 1 percent. When Sanders points out that it does not make sense through math, Dr. Ruddick eliminates the most ridiculous chart to try to explain the pseudo-science of "moving the 99 into the 1 percent."

Truthbrary
One of the best discrete moments of the episode is not a line of dialogue but rather just the title animation for the Ruddick's show. On a black screen, we see the word "LIEBRARY", which then turns into Truthbrary, which is the name of Ruddick's website. It's so crazy and yet works perfectly like a summation of the character's case Ruddick
Turning the American flag into a Chinese flag with the blood of the time
In a Segment Baron Cohen introduces a super-stereotypical liberal character, Dr. Nira Cain-N Degeocello, who dines with a Trump delegate and her husband, telling them about some of her most ridiculous ideas. When he talks about his fictitious Malala girl, Baron Cohen's character explains that she recently started having her period, and her parents encourage "free bleeding" – on an American flag. They do this, says Baron Cohen, to teach him the bloodshed needed to create the United States. And also, as a bonus, all this blood apparently looks like the American flag to the Chinese flag, he explains.
The Puffed Brush
Introducing himself as Rick Sherman, ex-con-turned-front artist -guard, Baron Cohen tells an art dealer who runs a gallery his method of bodily excretion to create his art. When he shows a brush, he says that it is made from the pubic hair of famous artists, he asks the woman to contribute his own hair with a brush – what she does, at the camera (although there is no nudity)
Get Larry Pratt to laugh at the most horrifying joke
Posing as "Colonel" Erran Morad, a former Israeli soldier Baron Cohen interviews Larry Pratt, executive director emeritus of Gun Owners of America. When Morad tells a story about how his wife shot him because he was "excited in the middle of the night". Which is correct, he explains, because "it's not a rape if it's your wife". , anyway, but Pratt's disgusting reaction – that is to laugh so loud at the thought that he is red in the face before the end.

Guardians of Children [19659007]
Morad also meets the gun rights defender Van Cleave, and the couple discusses the idea of the arm the children. The pair is making an instructional video for "Guard Guards", featuring pistols created for kids, such as the Puppy Gun, Gunny Rabbit, and Uzicorn. The most ridiculous part is when Van Cleave sings "aim head, shoulders, not toes, not toes" to help train kids on where to aim when they shoot at people.
Toddlers may see slow motion "like owls"
Morad managed to get Kinderguardians approved by several conservative personalities, including radio host Joe Walsh, Representative Dana Rohrabacher, Representative Joe Wilson and former Senator Trent Lott. He also has Pratt read a bunch of fake scientific facts explaining why it is a good idea to arm the kids. Pratt says that children under 4 years old process images 80% faster than adults. "Meaning that essentially, like owls, they can see in slow motion."
"A rudimentary knowledge of mortars"
Former congressman and conservative radio host Joe Walsh reads a summary explaining the details of the Kinderguardians program, in which he says that it will teach children how to use a variety of firearms, as well as give them "a rudimentary knowledge of mortars." It would have been thought that this would have triggered alarms that he was in the process of fooled – and if it's not that line, then Walsh is this: "In a month, a first student can become a first grenadier."
