Trump vs Hillary 2016

Quote: Evenbob

I just heard a conservative comedian say
that even if Trump starts WWIII and the
planet gets nuked and we all die, that's
still better than if Hillary had won. I
LOL because it's true!

I LOL because it's not true, but I have no doubt you would be pretending it was till the very end.

Also: "conservative comedian?" Isn't that an oxymoron?

It's when Rush thinks he's funny.

Not really. Why would it be?

Because conservatives lack the creativity and insight necessary to be funny. And their "comedy" is always aimed at belittling people who they don't like or disagree with, never with any sense of self-deprecation at all, so it always comes off as hostile and never funny.

See: Rush, Ann Coulter, Mike Huckabee's Twitter feed, etc.

EB finds it funny that everybody gets nuked and dies
That's not humor

Completely incorrect on so many levels. And the people you mention are not even comedians. Limbaugh does some humor in his show but to call him a comedian is not correct.

As to just belittling people they disagree with I'd suggest you take an unbiased look at liberal humor. That is most of what they do. Often with just a bunch of cussing thrown in as they think cussing is humor in itself

Please point me in the direction of some funny conservative comedians then...

I can take a good joke, even if its directed at liberals. Funny is funny.

On SNL Weekend Update a few weeks back:
"'The dating app Tinder announced a new feature this week, which gives users 37 different gender identity options. It's called, ‘Why Democrats lost the election.’'"
Libs can laugh at that right?

He was funny back in his SNL days. The kind of dry humor I like.
