How Tim Allen's 'Last Man Standing' Gets Away With Politically Incorrect Humor...
...As the ABC comedy prepares to mark its 100th episode threshold Jan. 29, its viewership is holding steady at 8.7 million, making the 20th Century Fox TV-produced multicam the No. 1 show in its Friday slot. THR sat down with the always irascible Tim Allen, 62, and talked about his return to network TV, how he relates to his right wing character and why he thinks Donald Trump "might be able to do the stuff that needs fixing."
...Why has the show gone after Hillary but not Trump?
It's a little surprising to me. We have a very liberal writing staff, so I'm surprised they haven't taken a shot at him. But we're not sure he's going to last, whereas the Clintons are like herpes: Just when you think they're gone, they show up again.

The Sink Emperor was long rumored to have the big H.
One of my favorite shows.
You can watch all of the past seasons on Netflix commercial free but you can only watch the current season on Hulu (with commercials).
The good news about Tim Allen is that he’s a vocal Republican who gets press for slamming the Clintons. The bad news is that he supports John Kasich. Overall, I’ll take him — we conservatives don’t have too many choices in the entertainment industry.
It’s disappointing. His liberal female family always wins the issues and all he can do is make (good) jokes.
Because in Hollyweird, you can count them on one hand, at least those who are vocal about it.
Tim Allen's always been a favorite of mine and my dad's. He plays relatable characters, and the reason they're relatable is that it's really him coming out. I respect him for that.
Damn good analogy
The Clintons prove herpes is fatal...
Some other great quotes from the interview:
What riles you up the most?
Unearned responses, unearned praise, unearned income: I have opinions about it. When you watch the debates, on both sides you see clowns who say shit that ain’t ever going to happen, but lately one party is the free shit party. They are just telling people they’re going to get all sorts of free sh*t. When you say you’re going to get free education, free health care, free brown loafers, of course everybody’s going to say yes to that. But you don’t mean it. That’s how you rack up debt, and debt is killing us. Whatever party is going to get us out of debt is my party.
Who scares you?
Well, we asked the female writing staff if they’d vote for Hillary just because she’s a woman, and they all said yes. So then the question was, “So if Sarah Palin was the female?” They all choked and they had to say, “Oh God, yes, we’d vote for her.” I didn’t quite buy it. I don’t think you should vote for somebody just because they’re tall, thin, yellow, green, whatever. Bernie Sanders, as nice a guy as he is, none of that sh*t’s going to happen. And Trump can’t send everybody to Mexico or whatever the f he said. But give that guy the roads, bridges, infrastructure, power grid, just have him fix that sh*t for four years. He’s good at that. And he’s a businessman so he understands how debt load works. Forget the stupid sh*t he says about immigrants. That’s just ignorant. But he might be able to do the stuff that really needs fixing.
So you’re not opposed to Trump?
I’m not opposed to anybody if their workload matches their bullsh*t load.
No, No, we can't have that!
My apologies. I neglected to fix all the sh*ts in my post.
bttt
In New York, it's "Hoypees".
In Boston, it's "Haht attyack. A by God myocahhhhdial infahhhcshun."
Props to George Carlin.
wait till next election when Hillary’s Little Pony (chelsea) runs.
Now how does he know what Herpes is all about?
that would be trigger, chelsea junior
Consider her grandparents:
Webb - convicted felon
Ed - convicted felon
Hillary - soon to be convicted felon
and step-grandparent Bill - impeached POTUS
