I know he is a Lefty, but...I kind of like him. Never watched him much, but...didn’t watch much television back then, and almost none at all today.
Burns are nothing to sneeze at, that is for sure. I wish him well.
Hi, rl. My impression is that Leno lets himself seem just lefty enough to stay in show biz. I remember when Obama was elected, there was almost a chill across the land from anyone making Obama jokes, even in private emails. Obama levied draconian requirements for anyone working for the Admin, asking for every post ever made on social media, and having a tattle hotline. But Leno was one of the few who actually made some mild jokes about Obama.
He also worked on Last Man Standing for a number of years, where the main character (Tim Allen) made numerous positive references to Reagan and various maga topics, manly stuff and guns, while scoffing at his liberal son-in-law. Hence Leno couldn't have stood being in the cast if he was truly leftie.
