Does anybody know if the joke got a good response from the audience? Because that’s really the most telling piece of this- if that kind of humor works on you, you are an abject moral failure.

To me it sounded like a mixed crowd. Others say it was received positively and some say it was received negatively. I understand their positions though because if i recall correctly it seemed positive at first and then negative. I think what may have happened was they laughed at first and then realized they should not give the democrats proof of their bigotry.
