Last Comics Standing

A tribute to the sane ones:

Bill Maher, welcome to the club! We know you think religion is silly and Trump is a madman, but you still hung tight to your convictions. Well done! Joe Rogan is another. Yes, we know you’re a manly dude who hunts and does MMA. But that doesn’t obscure the fact that you’re proudly pro-choice, pro-universal healthcare, for gay marriage, and support drug legalization and criminal justice reform. We don’t mind. Welcome aboard! Elon Musk is one more. He’s the patron saint of green energy — the man’s done more for the environmental movement than a million zillion AOCs. Just a few years ago, liberals were sprinkling flower petals before his feet! Now, they hate him. Their loss: We love him! I’m tempted to put Jon Stewart on this list, even though I’m sure I’ll receive unhappy pushback. But I believe that at his core, he’s sincere and well-intended. He could’ve thrown Tony Hinchcliffe under the bus for his “garbage” comment about Puerto Rico, but he didn’t. Sure, you could argue that one comic supporting another is hardly surprising, but I suspect Stewart was speaking from his heart.

At least some of them still do...
