I disagree. He was invited to a comedy event, and instead of making it a goal to be funny he repeated a bunch of attacks on the president that people have been repeating for three years now. There wasn't anything new in his act, and it wasn't entertaining unless you were coming from the "I hate the president and this guy agrees with me, and he's doing it in front of the president!" angle.
