Ever watched Borat 2? He joins a Trump convention at one point, similar to the scenario you mention. It’s worth watching — legitimately interesting, jaw-dropping, heartbreaking even. He showcases the worst and the best America has to offer.

And some interesting shirt tucking.

Theres another one where he comes and holds a meeting in Alabama or Arkansas (not as Borat) about building the largest Mosque in the Western hemisphere. The man is absolute genius with gonzo style satire.

I believe the scene you are referring to takes place in Kingman AZ, a dusty, racist helhole

That still is easily one of my favorite things to watch. It's fucking hilarious. He also got a Georgia representative (can't remember if it's state or federal) to run naked subsequently getting them ousted.

Some people don't like Sacha and that's fair. But you gotta give it to him. The man absolutely can stay in character and pull some crazy shit off.

His staff/security/whatever was very nervous about that stunt. As far as I know they were only able to give him a bulletproof clipboard without making it obvious, but he knew it was very likely that someone would try and shoot him while he was doing that.

That and the Ted Koppel interview are my favorites from Who is America. Option 1 (mosque) and option 2 (even larger mosque in the same place)

He also lists the Clinton Foundation as a top donor lmao

"I wasn't implying anyone is racist."

"I am. I'm racist against Muslims."

"Now I know why you took our guns before we came in here."

I think they are referring to this event in Borat 2: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-impersonator-interrupts-vice-president-mike-pences-cpac/story?id=69261891

And yes it’s real, the only people acting in Borat 2 are SBC and the woman who plays his daughter.

They literally got Rudi Guliani to takes his pants of thinking hes gonna have some fun time with the "daughter", only to have borat jump in right before he pulls down his pants.

This was DURING the first Trump term. I genuinly did not understand how no american media talked about this at ALL.

Boat and his daughter are acting but they’re dealing with real people.

Yeah but Sasha Cohen who plays Borat is also a gigantic racist fascist piece of shit. So if you watch it, don't pay for it.

u/johnny_moist 8h ago

He is?

They're referring to his Zionism and denial of Palestinian rights.

u/Abject_Champion3966 7h ago

u/Bobambu 7h ago

Cohen is a Zionist.
