From NPR.
Comedian Dave Chappelle says he resents that the Republican party weaponized the controversial jokes he’s made about transgender people. NPR’s Michel Martin asked Chappelle whether his large platform means he thinks differently about his responsibility to his audience, his community, and his art. She also asked him whether he thinks President Trump is funny.
