Can we have anything nice? Trump now whining about late night talk shows,







Silencing the opposition - what a Hitler thing to do! Republicans are the biggest snowflakes of them all! They control the media. At least let us have Kimmel, Colbert, and Trevor Noah.

Outside of the Kardashian family.

His whole life has been nothing but his own quotes about how great he is running on slow news days. Now we're stuck with him all the3 time.

Besides, republicans just aren't funny. Nobody would watch them anyway.

And he never checks what he writes obviously... Shouldn't it be hosts plural? How did he pass English class?

Such an f'ing moron... Colbert has been my lifeline...

If I ever personally knew any adult who whined and complained as much as he does, I would ask them if they wanted me to give them something to cry about. Then I'd slap them.

How can his idiot followers, who pride themselves on being macho cowboys, have any fucking respect for the guy? He's pathetic.

Let Trump whine. If anything, if anything, it’s goung to empower Colbert, Noah, and Kimmel.

I really believe that the worst thing to happen to late night comedy was Obama’s election. They could still make fun of the lunatics in Congress, but there wasn’t anything to joke about a competent, scandal-free President.

This, of course, does not apply to the shows Trump is complaining about. You cannot have a fairness doctrine for late night comedy shows.

What I would like to see is the fairness doctrine reinstated for the news shows. But why bother? Then FOX will, as Alex Jones and others have, declare that it is entertainment and not a news show. So it would not be subject to the regulation.

None of its viewers are smart enough to know the difference. I mean they voted for Trump.
