Examples of Jerry in a Sentence

  1. Jerry Seinfeld:

    FYC event. ( Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP) Jerry Seinfeld KEEPS HOPE ALIVE FOR POSSIBLE SITCOM REVIVAL No, it doesn't interest me. I do a lot of raisin stuff, Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP said. I have a lot of raisin material. Because you know you have the Sun-Maid company, and you have the Raisinet people. The ‘ My Next Guest Needs No Introduction ’ host then asked Seinfeld whether he sides with the Sun-Maid people, according to Complex. I just think that it’s interesting that after 80 years, Sun-Maid finally went,' Hey, why do n’t we put some chocolate on it ?' Imagine not thinking of that for 80 years. So that really gets me excited, that people pay me to talk about those kinds of things.

    She can not change the laws of this Congress. She can not unilaterally decide we're in an impeachment inquiry, what she said today made no difference of what's been going on. It's no different than what( House Judiciary Chairman Jerry) Nadler has been trying to do.

  5. Joe Scarborough:

    People very close to him told us that he feared he was pre-dementia, that he had changed. You watch Donald Trump in the late 1980s, even in the 90s, you watch him now, he is completely changed, can we talk about the media again doing their own self-diagnosis of the problem?Like, youre not allowed to make any jokes right now about Jerry Nadler having an issue, but people like Joe Scarborough are allowed to go on national television and say that people have told Joe Scarborough without actually naming anybody, that the president is pre-dementia.
