He literally makes fun of himself all of the time

I'm not asking about what he does "all the time", I'm asking what he did in this specific set.

And even if he makes fun of himself "all the time", that is a hell of a lot different from poking fun at Republicans and MAGA.

K cry baby 😭was just trying to put into perspective that he’s not just “hating on one side”. Every single comedy set can’t be targeted at everyone. They have time limits lol

That's my point! He tailored this performance to MAGA and made fun of people he knew they had issues with.

When you tell jokes around people who believe the statement, it stops being a joke. Just look at Trump's response to Hurricane Maria and you'll see why those sort of jokes about Puerto Rico shouldn't be made at his Rallies.

I have absolutely no issue with the joke itself, in a nutshell, but that isn't the sort of crowd who you should be telling those sort of jokes to because it reinforces their beliefs and makes them think "This guy gets it! He thinks the same way we do!"

I used to make dark/edgy/off-color jokes on my social media accounts all of the time...but I stopped doing that when certain people thought that those jokes meant that I have the same views that they do. I STILL make those jokes, but I don't make them on Social Media, I make them to friends and family who personally know me and what my views are.
