It's a stretch in that cons can't make comedy and not even maga cultists will watch stupid shit. 20 years ago Fox tried to make a "conservative daily show" and they had to cancel it immediately because it was fucking awful and no one watched it.

Conservatives always punch down they never can be funny if it's not about bigotry

If the "conservative daily show" only made fun of Republicans then it could work.
