Wonder why there aren't any nighttime rightwing comedy hosts?

[WiVoter]

I mean if they want to get rid of late-night TV, what would they replace it with? I doubt it would involve comedy.

1. Religious programs

White nationalist preachers

😐

3. While they can be viewed as satire, they're rarely intentionally funny.

[murielm99]

2. Because they are not funny.

There are no funny right wingers.

[NCDem47]

10. Genuinely just comes off as mean. The "humor" is meant to mock those less fortunate.

[Greg_In_SF]

4. There is

Gutfeld on Faux is pulling in better numbers than both Colbert and Fallon

[BOSSHOG]

5. Cause they can't do comedy

Just think for a moment. What makes conservatives laugh? Putting homeless people in detention centers? Forcing women to have their rapists babies? Letting convicted felons off the hook?

Maybe Mike Johnson and his son could host a show. Imagine the Guests.

16. Trump supporters report higher levels of psychopathy, manipulativeness, callousness, and narcissism

6. The American Taliban has no sense of humor. n/t

[Ocelot II]

7. Because right-wingers aren't funny. They only know how to punch down,

while the essence of humor has a lot to do with skewering those in power, not ridiculing and bullying people at the bottom of the social totem pole. Hate and ridicule and being mean just isn't funny.

8. Gutfeld

My dad doesn’t understand why I don’t find him funny at all. I feel like every time they say a buzzword everyone laughs because, I suppose, they think their laughter will help defeat the Democrats.

15. You beat me to it

It's all red meat for the reich wing, I do watch it occasionally when an interesting guest is on.

17. Put-down humor ... Or "Morality Play humor"

"Conservative humor" is always based on the punishment of those who step out of line.

Liberals are way too educated in useless ideas - they've too much time on their hands; all be thinking' too much about past coulda-beens and not be usin' Common Sense about dealing with the here and now and the way "things work', so they always fail...
Man's always meant to be Head of the Household because he's stronger and built to work harder than women who are built to just take care of the house and pop out kids....

Rich men get Rich because they're smarter and deserve to make more money. Unless they get too much money, get "educated" more than they need to, and forget where they came from - then they risk turning into Liberal Elites.

Everything will be just fine so long as everyone knows their place and sticks to it. If you need to learn a new skill, you can pick it up just by watching an old handyman, reading a trade magazine, or watching a YouTube.

Boys will be boys, and girls need to shut up and be nice about it, because when they grow up, boys will be men.

Don't mind those shiftless folks on the "Other Side of the Tracks", they're all good for nothin' but trouble or maybe simple grunt work the few times they are willing to do honest work. They deserve whatever they get. As a society, if we just get rid of the worst, everyone else will just fall in line.

It's not just poor rural folks that fall into that sort of stereotyped, simplistic thinking, a whole lot of well off, educated urban folks think the same way.

9. They aren't funny

[Torchlight]

11. Punching down doesn't get the same ratings

as mocking the champagne dreams and caviar wishes of their tin-gods gets. Bullying is odd to watch every now and then, but rarely a real ratings-mover or centerpiece of a successful show.

[Wounded Bear]

12. Right wing comedy is an oxymoron...

[cachukis]

13. Have purposefully sought a funny right wing

comedian, artist, comic strip and humorist and have always come away cringing.
That any have an audience speaks volumes about those people.
They are not even worthy of pity.

[Fiendish Thingy]

14. There is:

Greg Gutfield on Fox.

Gets more viewers than any of the other late night hosts.
