Re: [BigBrother_Survivor] Comedians hate Trump so much they can’t be funny anymore

 

exactly  I don't support or agree with everything they do on BB or Survivor but I still support the show.
my whole thing is I am just tired of the late night hosts spending their important time trashing the president at every corner . They make themselves look like fools IMO. I don't watch them so I am *saved* from listening tot he never ending garbage.
I remember back when talk shows were fun to listen to NOW it seems all political.

I respectfully disagree.  CNN is not a reliable source and I don't trust that channel.  We have different opinions regarding politics.  What we have in common is our love for reality shows like Survivor and Big Brother.

Tim, you have my sympathies. I imagine it is frustrating getting behind an ass like Trump. He is an embarrassment in the international community.  Now, not every one in Canada loves our Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau but at least he doesn't make an ass of himself on a daily basis. Corker is right.  The White House is an adult daycare facility and LOTS are missing shifts -- someone needs to help Gen. Kelly contain this child with his tweet machine - daily embarrassments! yep,  must be frustrating.  I get the 'drain the swamp' thing where you folks are tired of the same crooks election after election but I truly think you're better off in the long run with someone who  knows how to manoeuver in the political arena. 

Sorry for my rant too lol....Trump and CNN is like a non-stop reality show -- I can't turn it off!!

OT - Sort Of

The big shame is they can't respect the office of the Presidency, it doesn't matter who is the President, we are one nation, I guess that is until your candidate looses for some reason.

Sometimes I think the Trumpster is an Idiot and other times I feel glad that we are no longer the nations fool. I didn't vote for Obama and didn't agree with many of his policies but I supported him 100% as the leader of our country.

All the protests and acting out makes us look like idiots to the rest of the world. The country the espouses Democracy, Free Speech, etc... it's sad that we all have come to this.

There used to be a slogan in the sixties "My Country Right or Wrong" well back then I laughed at that and was one of thousands that actually protested something of meaning, at least I and my friends felt that way. I as well as many of you out there had friends come home with a flag draped over their remains for a war we didn't understand.

And we protested, not like the people now but because our high school buddy, brother or best friend was in front of us at his last memorial.

That was important to me and as it turned out to the nation.

Sorry for the rant, but it becomes a bit frustrating at times. I know this isn't the place to do it, sorry again...

Tim

Too bad for these comedians!   They don't know why they hate President Trump!  How sad.

 I guess I didn't remember Johnny Carson be so nasty .Maybe he did it different. This now just seems CRUEL.
But anyway. its their shows to run as they want.  We have choices in life- To listen and watch or change the channel .Seems like many things are political anymore. We just roll with the punches and move on. heck we cant even watch a ball game anymore with out it being political. .Well anyway. I have heard they all still have good guests on and some just prefer to pay attention to that part. .
There is no getting around it . It is what it is.
So do any of you watch the late night shows? Who is your favorite? Least favorite?
Gosh I haven't watched a late night show for years. Once in awhile I would watch Jay Leno and David Letterman




Comedians hate Trump so much they can't be funny anymore
By Joseph Curl - The Washington Times - Tuesday, May 9, 2017

ANALYSIS/OPINION:
Man, comedy is taking a beating lately.
With a polarized America, late-night talk show hosts have decided to go hyperpolitical — and to skew uber-liberal. It's a big change from the way it used to be.

When Johnny Carson was host of "The Tonight Show" from 1962 to 1992, he did thousands of political jokes. His target: Politicians — every one of them — presidents, lawmakers, Democrats, Republicans, it didn't matter.
Why? Because politics is funny. Simple. And politicians are hilarious. From both parties! So, you think Rep. Nancy Pelosi is funny, but Sen. John McCain isn't? You think Rep. Maxine Waters is ridiculous, but not Gov. Chris Christie? Politicians all are so full of themselves, clearly unaware of the meaning of "hubris," convinced that they — and they alone — can save the nation. And that's just funny.

But nowadays, late-night comedians have decided to mock half of its potential audience by bashing only Republicans. No one really knows why networks don't say "Hey, you're costing us viewers — which means you're costing us money, so stop it." But they don't. They're just fine with talk show hosts ripping half of America.
Look at today's hosts. Jimmy Kimmel goes on a rant about how good Obamacare is — and how awful people are if they don't think so. Stephen Colbert goes on a profanity-laced tirade targeting conservatives. Only Jimmy Fallon, the highly unworthy heir to Mr. Carson's "Tonight Show" has steered clear of divisive nightly rants, although he's being urged to be "more political" to catch up with Mr. Colbert's ratings.
 
There are others, including Samantha Bee, host of "Full Frontal," and Trevor Noah, host of "The Daily Show." And there's Jon Oliver, the very unfunny Brit on HBO's "Last Week Tonight." Target audience: Young liberals. Anyone else can, as Mr. Colbert might say, just @#&* off!
Over the weekend, Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker (and a really funny guy when you get to know him), said something's gone terribly wrong with today's entertainers.
"The problem you have with humor in America today is that Hollywood is so enraged at Donald Trump that they can't be funny," Mr. Gingrich said on "Fox News Sunday."
"All they've got is pure anger. And that's what's coming out in this stuff," he said.
Mr. Gingrich was spurred to comment after the profane rant Mr. Colbert delivered on Monday. "You're not the POTUS, you're the 'gloat-us,'" Mr. Colbert said in a joke perhaps targeted at 12-year-olds.
But then he went after the adults. "Sir, you attract more skinheads than free Rogaine. You have more people marching against you than cancer You're a real p–k-tator. The only thing your mouth is good for is being Vladimir Putin's c—kholster," Mr. Colbert said.
Mr. Gingrich said the new crop of hosts "think it must be funny because they're called comedians."
"So they exhibit their anger as almost a pathology on late-night television and you're supposed to laugh because, after all, they're comedians," he said.
Regarding Mr. Kimmel, the speaker said the very sad story of his newborn son needing heart surgery — which the host claimed was only possible because of Obamacare — is "part of the left's mythology" that doctors will not treat uninsured or under-insured people.
"You show up at a hospital with a brand-new baby and the brand-new baby has a heart problem, the doctors of that hospital do everything they can to save the baby," he said, regardless of whether a patient has insurance.
Mr. Gingrich's diagnosis of what ails today's late-night hosts: "They ain't funny 'cause they're too angry to be funny."
