One difference though is that he still tries to make “jokes”. The rest are just up there giving political lectures night after night without any pretense of trying to be funny.

You could be political and still be funny. Jon Stewart was actually good at this.

The problem today is that it has become so angry and unhinged. It's not funny. It's sad. Colbert used to be funny. Now he comes across as a man on the cusp of a nervous breakdown. If he was a coworker or a friend, I'd be concerned about his mental health, suggest he gets some rest or sees a therapist.

This is the state of anti-Trump "comedy" these days.

The point of what you’re watching, is he’s making it look like he’s making fun of trump however, it’s an inside outside joke you know he’s trying to make a joke, which makes it funny
