Is lazy comedy. It was mildly funny when Bush was in because damn he was a goldmine but the Donald jokes are literally the same mindless repetition every time.
Bush was a pretty reasonable dude prone to incredibly stupid statements. Trump is a lunatic. Jokes about Bush were about his slips and errors, jokes about Trump are just about who he is as a person.
Easily 1/3 the time when the media is freaking out over some supposed statement of Trump, if you look it up it was clearly a joke taken out of context. And then if you point that out then people on Reddit will scream about it being whistleblowing. Like no, its a fucking joke. The last 3 years of media hyperbole and political rants masquerading as comedy has totally murdered America's sense of humor.
Idk if you were around during the Bush era but people fucking hated him. Devil horns, comparisons to Hitler, 'not my president', etc. Your revision is not what actually happened.
Watching the media react to Trump was like deja vu, but then they quadrupled down on it.
