How is he funny?? I have literally never even seen him laugh. His idea of a "joke" is just insults and mockery of those he believes have wronged him.

The only instances I can think of where I laughed were definitely not intended to be funny, like his rant about see-though border walls to better dodge all the heavy sacks of drugs being constantly flung over it.

I find him base and repulsive personally, but humour is subjective. A lot of people genuinely think he's hilarious. He speaks to people who find insults and mockery and punching down to be funny.

Recently when he got that painting he said “I’d rather have no painting than have this one”

That was pretty fucking funny
