    “Right wing comic” just translates to bullying and bigoted jokes. That’s why the only gigs they can get is at bullshit hate-fests like a Nazi Trump rally.

      Makes me think of the one time I listened to a Gutfeld monologue. “Joke” after “joke” fell completely flat and even the audience barely laughed. It wasn’t clever at all. Just a bunch of tropes and cliches with barely any commentary on the news of the day.

        My parents love that guy, and I watch him trying to be the funniest and most clever guy in the room and failing and the other fox hosts think he’s “so zany”.

        It’s difficult to watch, mostly because it’s not even good jokes, it’s just very low hanging fruit that’s been said before a million times. It’s pretty lame.
