Michelle Wolf’s Cut Trump Joke | Raleigh News

Michelle Wolf reveals a controversial joke about Donald Trump was cut from her Mark Twain Prize performance—just before its Netflix broadcast—after venue staff, tied to Trump’s company, demanded its removal. Wolf, caught between artistic integrity and protecting jobs, reluctantly complied. Though the joke had already leaked, Netflix complied with the venue’s contractual right, not their own censorship. Wolf later clarified Netflix wasn’t responsible, urging fans to stop rumors and reaffirming her support for comedians. It’s a sharp reminder of how corporate power can reshape free speech—even in comedy. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
