In his second time hosting Saturday Night Live, in a post-election episode no less, Bill Burr is sure to generate online conversation once more for his off-color opening monologue jokes, in which he called for women politicians to “whore it up a little” when campaigning for office.

“It’s nice to be here on such a fun week,” the comic began innocuously.

“All right ladies, you’re 0 and 2 against this guy, but you learn more from your losses than your wins,” Burr joked. “So let’s get into the game tape: All right, ladies, enough with the pantsuit, OK? It’s not working; stop trying to have respect for yourselves. You don’t win the office on policy, you gotta whore it up a little bit. I’m not saying go full Hooters but find a happy medium between Applebee’s and your dad didn’t stick around. You all know how to get a free drink. And I know a lot of ugly women, feminists I mean, don’t want to hear this message, but just tease them a little bit. Make a farmer feel like he’s got a shot.”

Burr continued, commenting on the results of the 2024 presidential election, which saw Donald Trump win over Kamala Harris, saying: “I am so psyched this stupid election is over. It took forever. Like everybody knew who they were voting for four years ago and then they just drag it through a year and a half of this stuff. Like who was sitting there watching the debate still not decided? Two of the most polar opposite people ever. It’s like, ‘Let’s see, what does the orange bigot have to say? Hmm, how about the real estate agent who speaks through her nose? This is so difficult, they overlap, I just can’t make up my mind.'”

The Emmy-nominated actor said he was surprised Trump didn’t win months ago: “When I was a kid, if you were running for president and you got shot and you didn’t die, that was the end of the election.” Burr posited that the GOP candidate survived due to the “herky jerky movements that he does,” calling him a “lunatic” and “not a sane human being” for immediately standing up in the aftermath.

Elsewhere during the monologue, Burr re-hashed a joke directed at Asian people: “Whenever you have the flu or COVID, you always lay in bed and try to figure out who gave it to you, just going through this rolodex of people that coughed on you, sniffled near you, walked by an Asian or something. You try to fight it, you’re like, ‘They say on the internet that’s where all the disease comes from.'”

He continued, “I know who gave it to me. I sat next to a shoeless cowboy on an airplane, guy had no socks or shoes on the whole flight. The whole flight I’m sitting there looking at his dirty Jesus feet and all I’m thinking is the next pandemic is growing in the bottom of his feet … God made that guy and he keeps making that guy. One mouth-breathing moron after another … When is the constructive criticism coming? Like dude, when’s the last time you made a Gandhi, somebody empathetic?”

Afterward, Burr seemed to touch on the anti-vax movement, saying it’s a “weird” phenomenon. If people get vaccines they’re siding with the “evil pharmaceutical companies,” but should they forgo them, they’re “aligned with people that don’t wear shoes on the airplane.”
