2. It's A Sad Commentary Of Our Times That....

comedy hosts like Seth, Steven, James, Jimmy, Bill Maher the guy that took over the daily show and their ilk are providing the American People with more truths about Trump than the cable news shows.

Comedy has turned into news and investgative journalism and the news has turned into and is providing us comedy and lies.

4. Definitely sad that comedy shows have more news than the 'news'.

Of course, the hosts/writers of these shows always have the 'satire' defense to fall back on when tRump decides to sue for something that was said/printed.

Most newspapers don't have the cash lying around to fight a tRump-initiated lawsuit, and TV/radio outlets would most likely want the issue settled without having their names being dragged through the mud for a prolonged period (as is Don the Con's usual M.O.). A comedy show can get some mileage out of it, while ridiculing the orange coward.
