No one should ever take political guidance from late night talk show hosts. They are paid to say what they say and they’re not even allowed – ever – to stray from the left’s talking points.
When will market forces deliver us all from these pedantic humorless idealogues?
Compared to hosts of the past, such as Johnny Carson and Jay Leno, they’re not even talented. They’re just reliable trained monkeys dancing to the tune of the networks that pay them and own them.
Am I calling Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, and Jimmy Kimmel lazy grifters? Yes, yes I am.
Let’s start with Colbert. He trafficked in insincerity when he parodied Bill O’Reilly, and now that he’s playing himself he’s a lot less interesting. At least the parody, obvious as it was, made you guess once in a while. The real Colbert is a bore. After Trump won reelection easily, Colbert just couldn’t find any reason to laugh – which is his job. “Hey there, how are you doing?” Colbert began his show after the election. “If you watch this show regularly I’m guessing you’re not doing great. Yeah, me neither.”
Does the unfunny man think he’s a psychologist now? Imagine a world where the fake version of yourself is more interesting than the real thing?
Fewer and fewer people even watch his lousy show. I show why again and again in my latest best-selling book, The White Privilege Album. None of them try to reach all of America anymore, they just cater to the loser left.
Seth Meyers struck a similar note, and Fallon at least tried to go for some one-liners, but they tended to be cheap. “Well guys last night America decided to get back with a crazy ex and elect Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States,” Fallon said in his opener. “No matter who you voted for I think we can all agree that it’s going to be a rough Thanksgiving.”
Not with my family and the majority of American families who voted for Trump. (Well, maybe Tim Walz's family.)
We’re looking forward to having a border again, reducing inflation, unleashing American energy, letting Israel destroy the terrorists, and getting back to a sane government. We want the Golden Age Trump promises to deliver. But these late-night hosts have forgotten that most American don’t watch them or relate to anything they say. They don’t know much about America and aren’t curious enough to learn.
Kimmel has been a toxic twit on air for years, and his post-election show took that to new heights. Remember that guy who was acerbic, witty, and more than a little edgy on Win Ben Stein’s Money and later on, The Man Show? Well he’s dead and some wimpy emo liberal is wearing his corpse as a skin suit.
Kimmel opened his comedy show without humor and eventually resorted to tears. Tears! The man who used to mock political correctness cried in front of the shrinking slice of the nation that watches him because mean Trump with the nasty tweets has recaptured the White House.
Kimmel once again accused Trump of being a Putin puppet, never delving into why Putin invaded Ukraine on Biden’s watch (foreign policy isn’t the comic’s strength), and took a cheap shot at Robert F. Kennedy with a line about “wriggling brain worms who sold their souls to bow down to Donald Trump.” Har har. Kennedy’s biggest point is about getting toxins out of Americans’ food. Apparently Kimmel is against that noble cause for some reason. The majority of America can’t wait.
“I’ve been trying to come up with something positive, the best I can come up with is we’ve been through this once before and yes this time it’s probably gonna be worse, maybe a lot worse,” Kimmel said in his jokeless monologue.
“I’m disappointed, I know a lot of you are too. I thought common sense would prevail. I’m so stupid, I always think it’s gonna but for a lot of people this just isn’t important. It’s not high on their list.”
Yes, Jimmy, you’re stupid, but not for that. You’re stupid for totally losing your grip on the reality Americans have faced for the past four years that you and your allies rained down upon them without any pity or remorse. You’re stupid for selling out.
Actress and director Justine Bateman (Family Ties) captured the past and future well in her post-election social media venting. Read her whole thread here, and stay for her mercilessly skewering liberal social media meltdowns. Bateman calls the last four years “intolerable” and “un-American” as everyone who disagreed with the Biden Democrats and the Kimmels of the world had to “walk on eggshells” or get canceled by leftist mobs. She gets what all those late night hosts, who are supposed to be funny, don’t get at all – so what’s their problem?
They’re grifters. That's the problem. They’re bought, paid for, insincere puppets. Who can even cry on command!
They don’t tell jokes anymore, as I point out in The White Privilege Album, they are the joke. Every chapter of my new book is filled with jokes that these hacks are too afraid to tell.
If you want to see funny late at night, avoid Kimmel and the rest and watch Greg Gutfeld on Fox. He clobbers his rivals in the ratings because he doesn’t just avoid taking whatever position the left says it believes in today, he exposes and skewers the left every single night. He brings on an unpredictable roster of sidekicks with actual personalities – not Hollywood drones who just parrot whatever their agents want them to say so they can land their next gig.
If you want to read funny, don’t pick up any book by the network hacks. They’ve shown their true colors. They’re not insightful, and they’re not funny. They’re unfunny puppets. Avoid them all and pick up my book, The White Privilege Album. It’s full of laughs on the left. It’s full of truth about America’s past, present, and future. You’ll laugh more in the first 10 pages of my book than watching 10 years of those lame jesters.
