“ Take a joke all the way to the White House”

Conservatives took a joke all the way to the White House - comedy gold.

Right wing comedy just comes across as mean spirited, because you have to punch down.

[STSWBSGFAN]

I wouldn't say conservatives don't have a sense of humor. Look at Alex Jones, he's one of the biggest jokes around.

"Every conservative secretly longs to be in Hollywood"

Bingo!

Ive lived in missouri all my life and conservatives around me think pointing out small differences between broad groups of people is comedy. Its usually some form of bigotry and the laughter it manages to produce is of a mocking tone. Good comedy is people laughing with each other while conservatives laugh at someones expense. Its not that their not funny its more that they only appeal to other bitter, disappointed people and those people dont go to comedy shows on a regular basis so conservatives have no crowd in attendance to play to.

I can’t believe this show got cancelled, so funny

[DavidPDoder]

Take a joke...all the way to the WH. hah!

[gueverdura]

The funniest joke about Kilmeade doing stand-up for 11 years is that Kilmeade did stand-up for 11 years. LOL

[ROYALEWITKESSO]

Jesse Waters looks like a discount David Schwimmer double lol

I mean, there are a lot of comedians out there that are conservative, but there aren't many conservative comedians. Maybe it's because the ideology doesn't lend itself very well to widely accepted and appreciated jokes?

[DarkRendition]

Jordan is hilarious and marketable, he should have his own show today.

[JustSomeGirl]

The long haired dude knows how to use his face...lol... his expression cracks me up.

[mevirosteck]

Please bring them back for the Jared ivanka sketches, they were so fucking funny they could have their own show with it

[hg]

lmao didn’t ben shapiro want to go to hollywood too

[jayforeman]

Like Bill Maher said, the Left has moved to the center and the Right has moved to a mental hospital. The jokes write themselves. This is why it's hard to be a conservative comedian.

I #BlameKeppler for the MSM not understanding Trumps obvious humor.

[mattschumacher]

No the difference is that conservatives’ jokes are obvious and offensive. While liberals’ jokes are more complex and subtle. i.e. name one good conservative comedian. You can’t. Bc comedy requires self awareness

[BrooklynBeTheBoro]

I lost it at "Axe body spray scholarship"!
