It only just struck me. The federal government is currently headed by several “where is Ja Rule” level incompetents. Enough of the funny, I really, really want to go back to the boring government.

But what does Ja think? Where's Ja...?!

Funny joke from a petty bully. Chappelle loves to punch down too much for me to respect him more than anyone in the Trump admin.

Got any examples? Honestly curious.

There are tons of articles out there about his jokes punching down at various groups, because it's an ongoing problem and he just doubles down if anyone complains.

"Satire is meant to ridicule power. If you are laughing at people who are hurting, it’s not satire, it’s bullying." - Sir Terry Prachett

And I never said he was as bad as anyone in the Trump admin, I just said I couldn't respect him any more than them. He sits in a place of immense privilege and punches down at people who are struggling. He's in the same company as them.
