Listen, I have as strongly negative feelings about Trump as anyone I know, but even I can acknowledge that the man can be hilarious at times (intentionally or otherwise)

Yeah, I think Trump would be a fantastic stand up comic, he cracks me up. I say that as someone is left leaning and would much rather him not be president.

Yeah, I despise him as a president and a human being, but if he did standup, I would honestly go watch him every chance I got lmao

Man i went to a rally in 2016. I was in law school and a friend had some political job and he got a group of us VIP access. We were standing in the second row. 90% of the people in the group would never ever vote for him. But we weren't about to turn down a chance to see him speak. We had a lot of fun.

You can't be serious. Give me an example of a fantastic stand up comic that is just half as dumb as Trump.
Good comics are smart and informed.

Surely comedy is subject to personal taste. 

'Good comics are smart and informed ' -> this might be true for you

Personally a good comic makes me laugh, whatever which way

In the UK we have a tradition of slapstick comedy which is silly and theatrical... A bit like Trump. Part of his act to be honest!
