I recall Johnny doing a bit where he was Reagan, it was a take off on the Abbott and Costello ‘Who’s on First’ bit. It was hilarious. But it was also good natured humor, not ridicule. Today’s ‘comedians’ don’t understand the difference.

Today's leftist comedians drip with TDS hatred, it's palpable. It's not funny.

Opps...bad clip. In the full clip Carson actually says it is DANGEROUS for comedians to cross that line into politics.
