Is that how he was elected President?


Yes basically, he received fewer votes than his opponent of the portion of the population that voted. Of course, we have the electoral college so he won the election.

On the subject of these shows, they have gotten stale, but Trump gives them fodder on a daily basis and it likely makes sense from a business standpoint with their target demographics and such.

Republicans hyperventilated for 8 years over gay Kenyan Muslim socialist Obama, now it's the Democrats turn. When Kamala Harris or whatever terrible Democrat gets elected next, Republicans will spend 4-8 years on fox news and am radio bemoaning the destruction of the country. So it goes

That's odd, I don't remember eight years of comedians bashing Obama.

I wonder why that is?

Obama was never treated the way Trump is beingtreated. You can't possibly try to compare the two with a straight face.

The only way I would love it more would be if Donnie was on a split screen and we could watch his reactions to the jokes. That would make my day every day.

There is a legit reason for that you and the other Trumpers are unable to see for some reason. Mueller will fill you in on why before too much longer.

Another example of how the internet and social media has ruined things.

When I watched these late night shows in the 90's the hosts had a field day with the Clintons, Lewinsky and his other transgressions.
And Hartman's Clinton on SNL was hilarious. As was Dana Carvey and Bush I.

Everyone laughed. Now people just get angry.

Trump’s a pretty easy target though.
Presidents are always easy targets, whether it's Donald Trump, Barack Obama or George Washington.

ETA: As for political commentary, keep it on the news where it belongs.

Happy to help! Not many folks on the right realize that conservative comics actually go by the title of "pundits"

I know right? I much prefer the very factual and reasoned commentary from those fine individuals at MSNBC and CNN.

The entire "late night" lineup has morphed into an absolute political shill-show for the democratic party. It's pathetic; 1970s Pravda was less biased.

And so, I don't watch any of them. The only humorous thing they all share is the complete failure on their part to portray Hillary Clinton as a likeable person. She remains the despicable witch she's always been.

Jimmy Kimmel is a puppet like the rest of the talk show hosts. Trump is bad, Trump is evil, Trump is racist blah blah blah. What are they going to talk about in 2024 when Trump is out of office?

I know what you're saying- but it goes much further than the obvious part about their fear of being labeled a racist.
