I honestly thought it was just sort of dad jokes about politics, but maybe it's not as funny if it's not in accord with one's political leanings? I'm not sure.

For non-NPR humor:

My problem is that I am positive Greg Gutfield is just not funny, but it's not because his politics are different than mine.

I did not care for Jon Stewart's The Problem, but I think his return to the Daily Show has been great because 1. he has better writers and 2. He's willing to skewer the shit out of both parties for the most part.

I'm ok with Oliver, but I think he partially broke in 2020 and tends to go off on off tangents like "don't watch cop shows, they're unrealistic" and "here's why court packing is good".

I think Maher is sort of a jackass but I think he can be funny when he's not being a total dick. He seems to hit both parties.

What do you find funny in terms of that area of comedy?
