Yep. Back when there were actual fumy comedians. Went to a show in Vegas that had as their showpiece a so-called funny man. Left in five minutes!

“I’m happier than I’ve been in years!
Go trump Go!”

Same here! Remember that scene from the movie `Midnight Express’ where Billy has just escaped from the Turkish prison and is walking down the road?
It’s a lot like that .... https://youtu.be/P3d1HrBH5DM?t=3

Give us comedy instead of vicious, nasty partisan attacks on non-liberals.
Once comedians change from liberal lemmings into people who can think for themselves, they will stop being “frightened”.

The war in Europe ended before I was born, Japan surrender was after I was born.

How old am I?

Because Obama was the joke.

That would mean you were born in 1945 making you 71.

I'm a few years older

I was born roughly 3 months before the Iranian hostage crisis started. How old am I?

Liberals and their causes, PC, etc. ARE the joke. The show Portlandia seems to recognize this and is often pretty funny.

The Carol Burnett Comedy Hour is long gone. It’s all Wanda Sykes and Margaret Cho and Amy Slutmer now. Filth and degradation and leftist propaganda.

"This election was the most polarizing election in the history of our country."

Absolutely false. The foreign born socialist muslim racist in the white shack has been the most singularly destructive polarizing force this country has ever seen. And conservatives have seen, first hand, what 28 years of globalist, treasonous presidents have done to America.

We merely responded to an already polarizing, divisive force.

The past 28 years and our decline into darkness is what happens when we allow liberals to dominate our culture.

Well said! You've put into words what I've been thinking, but for some reason hadn't been able to say. It's not this election that was "divisive" - it was the years of leftist, anti-American indoctrination and radicalism that came before. We (and Trump) are just responding to the conditions created by the left and the globalists.

This situation with Trump is very odd for me. I have never been in a situation where I don’t understand any part of the basis for the ideas. Its really hard to argue with them when they see things so differently.

They see things differently because they have almost completely departed from reality. Trump has disagreed with existing policy positions on relations with Mexico, our response to Muslim terrorism, and our own government's policies on immigration. This doesn't make him a racist or a hater.

Outside of SNL, they’re fine. Inside, not so much.
