For two years late night comics told us President Donald Trump colluded with the Russian government to steal the 2016 election from Hillary Clinton. They were wrong.

TV comedians will continue with their top 2 favorite jokes:

1) “Republicans sure are stupid”

2) “Trump sure is stupid”

These two jokes always bring down the house and they just never seem to get old.

The biggest losers are Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers in that order. Jimmy Fallon not so much, because I think Fallon was forced to be more political by his bosses at NBC.

“Late night comedy TV” is already dead. For example, I don’t know one person among my generation, or my children’s, who watches SNL

Looking stupid is a killer for stand-up comedy.

Once they start to become the butt of other people’s jokes, watch out.

the loony left actually killed comedy years ago. It’s turned into an angry, bitter, freakshow. Which is really not much different than what they’ve managed to do to everything they get a hold of.

Two days ago, The Seattle Times ran an article about “patriotic Christians” (i.e., leftists posing as patriots) who had printed up cheap mini-comic books depicting Trump throwing various tantrums and boasting of his wealth. It was the lamest, most sophomoric humor you could imagine, but the Times reporter treated it as cutting-edge, comparing it to the so-called brilliance of Stephen Colbert.

Political comedy isn’t endangered by the no collusion, that’d be comedy gold for actual comedians.

What’s endangering political comedy is the current crop of no talent, hate spewing hacks posing as political comedians.

Playground bullies with a sixth grader sensibility. Maybe they can go back to oggling girls in skirts on trampolines as at least one of these young punk hosts used to do on national television.

Civilized behavior between our two sides is pretty much over, including political comedy.

“Comedy”? Not since Dan Akroyd, John Belushi, Jane Curtin, Gilda Radner, and Chevy Chase. And Steve Allen and Johnny Carson.

A steady stream of mean-spirited invective and cursing, “white men are sure stupid,” and “Trump is sure stupid” is not comedy.

Out of self preservation, they may slide - perhaps unintentionally - back to the “politically neutral” routine. At least for a while.

They’ll come back to the meth soon enough, though.

Can we get back to humor aka Leno and Carson, and get rid of the meanness?

Meanwhile, Captain America can’t tolerate anyone who wants to make America great. What a self-absorbed putz!

It has ben dead long before this. Today there is no college comedian circuit because triggering.

For 2.5 years, liberal comedy has consisted of one joke: “orange man bad.”

this exoneration just changes which version of that one joke.

Note: ALL the major comedians say the same.
