Dave Chappelle just brought home his first Emmy – the renowned comedian nabbed the Best Guest Actor in a Comedy Series award. That guest appearance was considered by many as, “one of the greatest SNL monologues of all time.” In that popular show intro, Chappelle urged the public to give the newly elected President Trump a chance.

Mr. Chappelle also stated in the monologue that “America’s done it.

It’s been a busy year for Chappelle and we’re sure his momentum will continue.
