So you think that's what the author meant by attaching a screenshot from Borat? Not that it was just an example of one of his roles where he's wearing a suit?

Use your brain to think about it. If your brain is rotted, I am sorry.

Name the role that Sasha Baron Cohen acted in a suit that is better known than borat, which is the image he supplied.

EDIT : I'll do one better, Borat is the character that people associate the most with Sasha Baron Cohen, since it is not the 90s, and "Who is America?" didn't take off as well as his other work, and didn't have Dr. Nira Cain-N'Degeocello or Erran Morad become household names the same way Borat did.

What are you even talking about? Why would he speak and act like a completely different character simply because both characters wear suits? It makes zero sense.

Like I honestly don't even know what else to say. They're two very different characters with the only similarity being the fact that they wear suits. They wouldn't behave similarly in any way whatsoever.

Edit: for example, since you specifically mentioned it in your original comment... Why on earth would the Joker say anything in Kazakh?
