If you can't find members of today's political crass to kick around anymore, you sure haven't been paying attention. wink777
Merry Christmas! :tree3:

The problem is that Trump sucks all the oxygen out of the space, and he is a parody of himself.

I'll admit that even Monty Python, Johnny Carson, and the Mighty Allen Art Players (from radio's ancient Fred Allen Show) would find President Tweety like shooting fish in the barrel by now, but you still have two other branches and a bureaucracy with boils to lance. ;)

True. But since Trump has been around, the others don't occupy much space in the zeitgeist. The media is pretty much all Trump all the time. I am sure Steve Allen or Johnny Carson would find a lot of material with Trump, but it would not be as hate-filled and blatantly agenda-driven as what we are seeing from Fallon and Colbert. It would be much more nuanced and clever.

It's also enough to make you miss Henry Morgan's NBC Monitor segments, That Was the Week That Was, and Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In (especially its first three seasons) even more . . .
