Bill Burr: ‘Hillary Clinton Is The F****** Devil’
Bill Burr is not a conservative guy. And while he freely admits to being a Bernie Sanders supporter and is an unapologetic hater of Donald Trump, he’s not that liberal either.
The tone of the standup comedian and podcasting giant’s thoughts could best be summed up as politically apathetic, but when it comes to Hillary Clinton, the hatred runs deep.
Audiences first got a taste of how badly Bill Burr detested Hillary Clinton in a standup comedy special for Comedy Central.
During his routine, he expressed a willingness to see a woman President one day but cringed at the thought of it being HRC.
Thinking back to her Senate run, Burr made the case that Clinton, a woman who is often praised for her knowledge and experience by mainstream media pundits, had no business running for office.

“I tell you what kills me,” Burr said in a standup act prior to Clinton’s announcement that she would be seeking the 2016 nomination for the Democratic party. “Hillary Clinton might run. She might run. That blows my mind. I don’t even know how she became a Senator. She went from being the President’s wife to being a Senator, just like that. Lateral move.”
Bill Burr likened Hillary’s “lateral move” to Tom Brady’s wife, Gisele, becoming the next quarterback of the St. Louis Rams.
“It’s like, what, you’re hanging out, and pick it up? ‘I sucked at sports and then I [expletive] Tom Brady. And I don’t know what happened. I just picked up a ball and started lacing it. I’m leading receivers, it’s incredible!'”
While the standup act of Bill Burr is often praised for its biting and insightful irreverence, his tone towards Hillary in a recent episode of his The Monday Morning Podcast took a darker turn as he hit Clinton for “pandering” to black people for making an appearance on an African-American student radio program and claiming the “one thing she always carries” with her is hot sauce, which was detailed as pandering here by the Atlantic.
Bill Burr said he “had to shut it off” because he was so disgusted watching HRC trying to get the black vote.
“The Clintons are the [expletive] devil, I swear to God, can’t you see both of them on a used car lot doing one of those commercials? They are the [expletive] devil.”
Citing another example of “pandering,” Bill Burr recalled how Hillary Clinton, an admitted Cubs fan, wore a Yankees hat after winning the race to represent New York in the U.S. Senate and tried to pass herself off as “a lifelong Yankees fan.”
Burr believes Clinton has an “I said it, now they’re gonna like me” kind of attitude when it comes to campaigning, something she’s been called out for on issues like gay marriage and the Iraq War by various outlets.
“She literally thinks she just has to say, ‘I carry around hot sauce,’ and all black people will think, ‘[Expletive] I can relate!’ What’s she gonna do next, go to Chinatown and say, ‘I always carry around soy sauce’?”
Burr closed out by criticizing the Clintons for throwing their daughter a $3 million wedding in spite of being admittedly “broke” when they got out of office.

(And just in case you think Bill Burr is a conservative talking head, here are his thoughts on Donald Trump.)
But what do you think, readers? Is Hillary Clinton as disingenuous as Bill Burr makes her out to be, or has she truly evolved on a number of issues? And do you think that she is qualified to become the next President of the United States? Sound off in the comments section below.
