"Vice President Mike Pence didn't know it at the time, but when he delivered his speech at CPAC earlier this year, he was actually taking part in a secret sequel to Borat," Yahoo News reports.
Here's the trailer for the film, which seems to be titled "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan":

Don't give this not funny clown any more attention and pub.
He needs to go away.
So tedious. Try that with Michelle Obama and see how far you get, rebel.
Cohen's humor leaves me sour. He has a talent, that's for sure, and some people appreciate it.
But the whole "I'm going to take advantage of people's friendliness and good nature to ridicule them" bit gets very old very fast.
(probably) shrinkage...
This comedic style is dated. So dated.
@AA
"Here's the trailer for the film, which seems..."
Speaking of seems, it seems like kind of a cheap shot. I know Pence is a public figure but filming people without their permission for commercial gain is an asshole move.
The original movie was funny, but life has moved on. It would be like making another 'Napoleon Dynamite.' It just wouldn't be the same...
Cohen needs a new schtick.
It's hilarious how he mocks country folks who offer him hospitality.
Knee slapping.
Sounds like a law suit or criminal charges pending.
So tired...
Never embraced the concept when it was -- that word again -- fresh.
Not my cup o' tea. His comedic creativity seems to have stalled. A bit like Nicolas Cage's acting ability - there's only one schtick that he can do.
Thanks for the typo correction.
"It's hilarious how he mocks country folks who offer him hospitality."
As in the first Borat movie, much of what he is showing is how patient, kind, and tolerant Americans are to an outsider. If Cohen's idea is that they are stupid, he doesn't prove it. You can't tell if they don't notice he's making things sexual and racist and inappropriate or that they are actively ignoring it because they think he's from a different culture and perhaps uneducated and/or unintelligent.
I'm trying to understand why he is a big deal?
Like Southpark, he made it big by not being afraid to offend liberals and is now obsequiously kowtowing to them. I guess it’s either get with the program or end up like Rosanne and Ted Allen.
"...mocks country folks who offer him hospitality."
Also interesting how he gets license to openly mock a backward muslim culture with never a disparaging word from the Left's cancel culture. He's got the platinum White Privilege card, unlike these pathetic shmucks from Indiana or West Virginia.
Geez, who cares? Borat is Boring.
The first Borat was enough for me. At first the movie was funny in a shocking kind of way - then it was just ugly.
...much of what he is showing is how patient, kind, and tolerant Americans are to an outsider.
Alan Funt went out of his way to point out how patient and tolerant the people he caught on Candid Camera were.
Borat is more like Alan Cunt, in his native British sense.
Wiki: As a broader derogatory term, it is comparable to prick and means "a fool, a dolt, an unpleasant person – of either sex". This sense is common in New Zealand, British, and Australian English, where it is usually applied to men or as referring specifically to "a despicable, contemptible or foolish" man.
This wealthy English Jew is always trying to interfere in US politics and mock and attack US Christians and Conservatives. I find him disgusting and unfunny. He's always punching down. That the very people he's attacking think he's funny, shows how stupid they are.
Wow, he's brave to show off his shortcomings.
It struck me as not that funny and probably a lot of fake-dupe and fake-fake and staging of fakery.
A mixture of dupe and fake-dupe and staged-dupe mixed with bad jokes. Not my cup of tea. esp right now. Whatever. as long as this guy duped the right people, it's hilarious. *insert my fake laughter*
If Cohen's idea is that they are stupid, he doesn't prove it.
He doesn't need to prove it to his target audience, as far as they're concerned its a given. Its a laugh at the rubes vehicle.
Borat could have had a much more violent and interesting scene had he done the Trump imitation at a BLM or Antifa rally. But a much shorter film career, I think.
The incident two years ago when Cohen turned into Sir Robin and bravely ran away when the San Bernardino gun shop owner recognized him, as Cohen was trying to do a bit for Showtime mocking American gun owners, pretty much showed he had decided being the mocking court jester pandering to bi-coastal network executives was the path forward he had chosen.
In the case of the gun store owner, Cohen wanted to dish it out, but ran away when he was afraid he was going to have to take it. So what he's basically doing is comedy that wants to ridicule unaware people with different ideological viewpoints via anonymous cameras and disguises, but refuses to deal with those same people when they're aware of the situation. 'Edgy' comedy that turns gutless when Cohen's not in the power position with his dupes.
It's making feeling hurts

Borat shows that bullshitters can vicitimize genuinely civil people very easily.
Hillary shows that bullshitters can deplorabilize genuinely civil people very easily.
while for Trumpist Americans civility is not bullshit.
Some things seen cannot simply be unseen......
"Delivery of Prodigious Bribe" would actually work better under a Biden administration. Make your checks payable to Hunter Biden.
I enjoyed the first Borat movie. This trailer doesn't look nearly as good, but I'll probably watch it anyway.
Isn't the whole Kazakhstan thing pretty racist?
He dis a couple of things I really enjoyed. Sweeny Todd and a series where he played a Mossad agent undercover in Iran. The kid can act when he isn't busy playing a narcissistic Jewish kid.l

Sacha is that you?
The Cohen brothers have gotten to be just as bad as Borat/Cohen.
I can't be the only one who has noticed this or feels this way about the Cohens. Anyone else?
The new Fargo is awful. Tedious, pretentious, and vastly unlikeable.

It puts teh lotion on its vestigial vajayjay and a box of teh Kleenex® within reach of its cloven hooves.

I felt bad for the Kazakhs I knew. There was Russian racism and when they escape to the US, Cohen comes after them with his mean spirited Borat racism. If it were good humored we could all laugh, but then it wouldn't be Cohen.
yes the last one with peter stormare wasn't so bad, two seasons ago,
"The new Fargo is awful."
I loved all of the past 'Fargos,' highly entertaining.
We watched the first episode of the new one and it wasn't great.
What the hell do Italians and black people in the '50s in Missouri have to do with Fargo? Complete disconnect.
Will give it another try as I think Chris Rock is a talented guy, but I don't have good feelings about it.
"Thanks for the typo correction."
: )
I'm as OCD as you are re: grammar, spelling, etc. However, I cannot diagram a sentence to save my life...
chuck ---- it is not good hearted.
You know, the poor creep is going to be seen, years from now, as a vicious bigot.
Ha Ha Ha "KAZAKHSTAN" I MAKE FUN OF THIS COUNTRY !!!!! Ha Ha Ha he says .....
he is not funny, he is not talented, he is just intense in his unkindness, he is a disgrace to his family, to the country he grew up in, and to the humanity which he so rarely thinks about.
Think about it --- what if he made fun of Jews that way, or Chinese, or African-Americans?
He's celebrated as edgy because he humiliates an elderly southern woman with a discussion of his defecating after tricking her to get hosted at a Sunday dinner in her modest home. I do understand the argument that the people he is mocking come across as gracious and forgiving to him nonetheless, but his behavior is basically a home invasion with borderline-perverted transgressiveness.
If he did the same thing to someone from his own faith tradition, it would be denounced. Unless I missed something, he didn't go Brighton Beach and interrupt a Seder dinner by telling the wife he crapped in their hallway. But southern Christians are such an acceptable target. The CPAC stunt was a threatening interruption (among real threats created by aggressive protesters) of an event attended largely by middle-class people treating themselves to a weekend in DC, who paid extra for the speech he disrupted. There are serious security issues at CPAC every year. Why wasn't he arrested by the Secret Service? Would he interrupt an SCLC conference and put it in a film? Diversity activities at Harvard? Juneteenth picnic? Of course not. He picks his targets because it is permissible to mock and even threaten them.
He'd be charged with hate crimes for pulling the same stunts against other types of people -- or other recent presidents.
