Comedian Eddie Griffin Praises Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Bash And His A-List Guests [WATCH]

Actor and comedian Eddie Griffin, known for roles in films such as Scream 3, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, and Undercover Brother, recently shared details about his visit to a high-profile event at Mar-a-Lago, the Florida residence of President-elect Donald Trump.

Speaking to nearly 400,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel, Griffin made it clear he has no regrets about attending the gathering, which featured prominent figures from politics, entertainment, and media.

“Now, I went down to Mar-a-Lago and hung out with a bunch of rich, rich, RICH, white people,” Griffin recounted in his video.

He described mingling with a variety of well-known individuals, including actor Mel Gibson, commentator Tucker Carlson, and comedian Russell Brand.

Griffin praised Gibson, saying, “Ain’t no racist bone in that motha f*****’s body.”

He also referred to Russell Brand as a “master of the English language,” playfully attributing this to Brand’s British background.

Griffin admitted he previously disliked Tucker Carlson but now views the commentator differently, calling him a “good, Christian, young, white child.”

The comedian noted that boxing legend Mike Tyson and several other black attendees stood out at the event, jokingly describing them as “sticking out like sore thumbs.”

However, he lauded the party, saying, “Them white people know how to throw a God damned party.”

Griffin dismissed criticism of his attendance with a defiant message to detractors. “And yes, yes I came away with a couple of God damn good deals. So, there you have it,” he said. “And f*** you if you didn’t like that I went because they didn’t invite yer ass, I got the invite and I took it and I went so kiss my black ass.”

Griffin’s candid recounting of his Mar-a-Lago experience comes as a growing number of entertainers and public figures openly express views that might have been controversial in Hollywood and media circles prior to Trump’s decisive 2024 election victory.

In the sports world, commentator Colin Cowherd recently warned the NBA against alienating regular Americans, saying the league risks becoming as unpopular as the Democratic Party.

“The NBA…ratings are down 48% in the last 12 years and they have fallen off a cliff this year and Adam Silver’s solution is let’s make the courts brighter…Go ask the Democrats. Be warned, once you detach from regular people in America, you will pay a price.” – Colin Cowherd pic.twitter.com/V3wifBWu5a

In Hollywood, actress Justine Bateman has ridiculed those who reacted negatively to Trump’s win, declaring that his victory has been a liberating moment.

In 2020, the Democratic Party was overthrown by the Woke Party. And the Woke Party has run the country for the past four years. It produced negative results. That experiment is over. The Woke Party can take its place in the American political graveyard with the Whigs and the…

High-profile figures such as Joe Rogan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Elon Musk have also become vocal supporters of values championed by the Trump administration.

Griffin’s video provides another example of changing dynamics in entertainment and media, as figures across industries begin to challenge longstanding narratives and openly align with perspectives that resonate with a broader base of Americans.
