Does it matter that he hasn’t said the words “Don’t even consider voting for [Trump or Carson]” if he spends a large portion of his show ridiculing people who would vote for them?

Because if either gets the nomination, the next president will be a democrat.

Well, he went after Harper on the eve of the election. We still have a few horrifying years to go.

And I think attacking Harper (Justified) was was mostly a set-up about the absurd law that could toss him in jail and a 5K fine for being a foreign media outlet trying to influence the election (with words, not money) by talking shit. And the law is indeed absurd.

Maybe he’ll say it when we’re, you know, actually close to election time here in the US.

Because shitty Presidents makes excellent comedy material. I don’t think he’ll approach that bridge till he has milked it for all its worth.
I mean, I would. I hate them both, but if I made a living out of jokes of politicians, these guys would be my golden goose crap. Even if it’s crap, its gold. I wouldn’t want that goose to die too soon.

@dappled_leaves No, it doesn’t matter. I don’t watch him, too much like propoganda. @Pandora I don’t believe you mean that. I hope you don’t.
