Maybe if conservative humor wasn't racist as fuck and unfunny then it'd work?

I just love the assumption that they could get Kanye to be one of the inaugural musical guests.


I mean...I'm not saying they couldn't.

But again, I'm not sure the people who would watch this would want Kanye.

Make fun of both sides equally should be the solution.

Both sides aren't being equally ridiculous though lol

You're right. One side is just kinda like "let us keep our values, you can have your own ones but you can't force them on us, not even ones that do kinda make sense to have as a standard, nation-wide thing". The other invents new genders on a daily basis, and calls you a disgusting bigot if you so much as haven't heard of their latest one yet.

"...But I'm totally neutral guys. Both sides are bad."

The Dennis Miller one just sounds like a bad Norm Macdonald joke.

The Rachel Maddow joke could have been at least somewhat clever if he didn't explain the whole joke in the second half of the tweet.

Lol.

The young baby boomers were more liberal than today's liberals are. They grew more conservative as they aged. We can expect at least a bit of the same to happen to millennials when they get older.

Also, Gen Z is more conservative than millenials to start out, with many Gen Z teens being Center or Center left (compared to the far left millennials).

The conservatives are going to win the culture war unless the liberals acknowledge what I said above. Their failure to realize it will be their downfall.

Conservatives have already lost this generation's culture war. Don't confuse some push back to "SJWs" to be an indication that traditional conservative values are winning.

neocon isn't a good name, because there are just as many Democrat neocons as there are Republican neocons

First, dont try to hide what youre doing. Bill the show as the red state alternative to Saturday Night Live and broadcast it on the same night at the same time. Be a direct competitor and follow SNLs format with a regular cast, a celebrity host and a musical guest in front of a live studio audience.

Second, set it in Americas heartland. Omaha, Nebraska would be ideal. And give it a similar name and branding to SNL. Something along the lines of Live from Omaha! Its Another Saturday Night! would work. If lawyers say thats too close to SNL, get creative but make sure viewers know exactly what the show is intended to be.

Third, take advantage of all the comedic opportunities SNL passes over on a weekly basis for purely partisan reasons. Hammer Democratic leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. Parody CNN and MSNBC in the same way that SNL delights in making fun of FOX News. Chris Cuomo and Brian Stelter are walking comedy skits just waiting to happen. Have you ever wondered why theyre not an object of ridicule on SNL? There are countless other possibilities SNL regularly neglects which would send conservative Americans into fits of laughter.

Saturday Night Live typically does 21 episodes per season. Here are suggestions for hosts of the first five episodes of its new competitor Live from Omaha!

James Woods

Ann Coulter

Greg Gutfeld

Sarah Palin

Adam Baldwin

Future potential hosts could include Rush Limbaugh, Adam Carolla, Ben Shapiro, Joe Rogan, Michelle Malkin, Nick Searcy, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Jon Voight, Dennis Miller, Angie Harmon, Larry the Cable Guy, Dean Cain, Pat Sajak, Tucker Carlson and Mike Rowe, just to name a few.

How about musical guests? Again, here are your first five episodes:

Kanye West

Trace Adkins

Sammy Hagar

Charlie Daniels

Kid Rock

How about some sketch ideas? Here you go:

Very Deep Thoughts from Joe Biden

Tonight on CNN: Chris Cuomo Says the Darndest Things

A sketch featuring Sarah Palin playing Tina Fey upset about Hillary losing.

The Social Justice Warriors: A group of college undergrads who are trying to advance radical social change but cant get anywhere because theyre constantly at war with each other over pronouns.

Lifestyles of the Rich and Democrat

Mental health tips from Kathy Griffin and Jim Carrey

Bernie Sanders hosts a radio show where he cant explain the historical failures of socialism to a single caller.

There should also be sketches which make fun of liberal comedy heroes like Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Samantha Bee and Trevor Noah. Maybe this could take the place of SNLs Weekend Update. Make these hypocrites the butt of the joke for once and see how they like it.


Please make this show conservatives.

My favorite line not from the above:
Imagine the horror of media and Hollywood elitists the first time Live from Omaha! outpaces Live from New York! in the ratings.


What the fuck. I mean, I'm not surprised because conservatives are typically terrible at humor but this is a low ass blow.

Than again, mental health has always been the punchline of a joke to conservatives.

This guy thinks the religious right doesn't try to adamantly force their beliefs on the nation. Few things have been more hilarious to hear.
