Chelsea Handler’s Brutal Takedown of Trump and Melania: A Roast for the Ages

Chelsea Handler has never been one to shy away from controversy, but her recent live takedown of Donald Trump and Melania may have set a new standard for comedic roasts.

In a segment that quickly went viral, Handler unleashed a torrent of biting humor and sharp observations, leaving no aspect of the former president’s life untouched.

From his infamous spray tan to his political failures, Handler’s performance was equal parts hilarious and brutal.

The segment began with Handler referencing a theory floated by The New Republic, suggesting that Trump may have contracted syphilis in the 1980s.

While the claim is unsubstantiated, Handler used it as a springboard to mock Trump’s physical appearance and past behavior.

“More vicious than his failed casinos,” she quipped, setting the tone for the roast.

Trump, she said, looked like “a bad wig in a hurricane,” while his spray tan seemed to “melt in real time.”

Handler didn’t stop at Trump’s appearance.

She took aim at his penchant for exaggeration and incoherence, describing his speeches as “word salads” that even a dictionary would struggle to understand.

“Man baby was doing what he does best,” she said, “making up numbers, talking incoherently, and demonstrating that his brain can process information as quickly as a potato.”

The audience roared with laughter as Handler painted Trump as a man more concerned with self-adulation than substance.

One of the most memorable moments came when Handler addressed Trump’s lack of a healthcare plan.

When pressed in a past interview, Trump had admitted to having “concepts of a plan” rather than an actual strategy.

Handler skewered this admission with her signature wit.

“A concept of a plan is what I have when I take my dog to the park,” she joked.

“I don’t want a world leader with concepts of a plan.”

Melania Trump also came under fire during the segment.

When asked if she would ever have Melania on her show, Handler responded with a resounding “No.”

She dismissed the former first lady as someone who “can barely speak English” and offered no respect for either Melania or Donald.

“If he were here right now, what would you say to him?” Handler was asked.

Her response was as blunt as it was cutting: “F— off.”

Handler’s roast wasn’t limited to personal attacks.

She delved into Trump’s political missteps and legal troubles, describing his life as a “dumpster fire” and his legal issues as “a Trump steak that had gone bad.”

She mocked his fixation on his own achievements, likening him to a human infomercial who can’t stop boasting about himself.

“Even if the entire world were on fire,” she said, “Trump would still be talking about the time he drew the largest crowd to an event—something he never did.”

The comedian also took a jab at Trump’s supporters, describing them as “the human equivalent of spoiled milk—sour, dubious, and best left alone.

” She painted his fan base as a collection of conspiracy theorists and disgruntled individuals who cling to Trump as a messianic figure.

“He’s not at the forefront of a movement,” Handler said.

“He’s in charge of a Facebook comment section that has gone crazy.”

Handler’s critique extended to Trump’s family, particularly Ivanka Trump.

She mocked Ivanka’s perceived role as a moderating influence, saying, “Ivanka was supposed to be our Wonder Woman, but now we’re just wondering where the hell that woman is.”

Handler pointed out that Ivanka often disappeared during key moments of Trump’s presidency, leaving the public to question her commitment to her father’s administration.

One of the most biting moments came when Handler addressed Trump’s infamous small hands.

“Shaking hands with Trump must be awkward,” she said.

“It’s like a toddler handing you a crayon.”

She also mocked his trademark pout, describing it as a “tight-lipped, perpetual scowl” that makes him look like he just bit into a lemon and realized it was actually a battery.

Handler didn’t hold back when it came to Trump’s financial woes, either.

She described his business ventures as a series of failures, from Trump Airlines to Trump University.

“The only thing he has managed to build,” she said, “is a fan base that treats him like a messiah.”

She joked that if lawsuits and poor choices were a measure of wealth, Trump would be the richest man on the planet.

The roast also touched on Trump’s legal troubles, including his alleged mishandling of classified documents and his involvement in the January 6th Capitol riot.

Handler referenced testimony from Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Trump’s chief of staff, Mark Meadows, who described Trump’s erratic behavior on January 6th.

“He’s like a malfunctioning, bewildered animatronic,” Handler said, “frantically attempting to persuade people that he’s still relevant.”

Handler didn’t spare Melania either, mocking her for her perceived lack of involvement and influence.

She joked about Melania’s tweets and her apparent disinterest in her husband’s political career.

“The world is embracing progress,” Handler said, “but Melania is stuck wiping ketchup off the walls at Mar-a-Lago.”

The segment concluded with Handler reflecting on Trump’s legacy.

“History will remember Trump as the loudest warning in the world, not as a leader,” she said.

With her sharp wit and fearless delivery, Handler reminded audiences that comedy can be a powerful tool for holding public figures accountable.
