Trump Isn’t a Target — He’s a Goldmine: Why Comedians Can’t Ignore the Chaos " | " Fedlan News: Donald Trump isn’t just a President—he’s a goldmine for comedians. From endless scandals to headline-grabbing moments, late-night hosts can’t ignore the chaos.
There’s a reason why Trump sketches became staples of late-night television. Alec Baldwin’s impersonation on Saturday Night Live became iconic not because of personal hatred, but because the character practically wrote itself. A president who live-tweets his rage at 2 a.m., who boasts about crowd sizes at funerals, and who once suggested injecting disinfectant to fight a virus — that’s not a partisan caricature. That’s the news.
Of course, comedians have their personal views, and that will always color their material. But blaming them for the disproportionate focus on Trump is like blaming firefighters for being busy during a five-alarm blaze. They’re just reacting to the flames.
In the end, the role of comedy isn’t to provide balanced airtime to political parties. It’s to reflect and distort reality in ways that reveal deeper truths — truths that are sometimes easier to digest when they’re laughed at. And if Trump finds himself the punchline more often than others, maybe it's because he’s been the loudest joke in the room.
