Bye, bye Jimmy

So Jimmy Kimmel has been closed down. His numbers were appalling and even in a leftist industry like late night TV, the company answers to the investors. What's that saying? You dance with the one who brung ya. Now the Democrats discover the First Amendment. They shut down the country (except for powerful Democrats and people who could work by laptop), and allowed Twitter, Google, Instagram, etc. to control our speech, jobs, travel because private companies can do what the government can't--deny speech, assembly and religion. They so intimidated us that pastors closed churches and didn't stick up for us. Those who told the truth about life and sexuality were called hateful and totalitarian by politicians and government agencies. To this day Democrats named Pelosi, Harris, Clinton, Watters, Crockett, Pritzker, Walz and Omar call conservatives Nazis and fascists. Jazzy Crockett, a rich kid who went to private schools, all of a sudden speaks black English and acts like a pompous ass, yes m'am, that's free speech. That's free speech, and their reckless behavior gets people killed. However. When capitalists hire a skinny man to dress like a woman to sell beer, they get to lose their profits. When capitalists hire a one note political comedian who was nasty and not funny for years they were losing money for their non-coastal affiliates, they are allowed to say bye bye Jimmy.

Why do comedy shows and social media delight in ridiculing Pence's commitment to his marriage?

I know this question “why” is rhetorical and we understand why the reporter and other anti-Trumpsters think it’s worthy of discussion. The news babe/guy who first released it thought it was important to say "look over there," rather than report on important news like the former president spying on the current president, or the red lines Obama drew in his disastrous foreign policy. It’s difficult to light up social media or the late night shows by discussing serious matters. News people could report on how the whole "intelligence community" is stonewalling President Trump, but ridiculing Pence is more fun (and safe). I watch old Carson reruns, so I see only the routines from the 80s written by the then 20 somethings and don't catch the current  late night shows written by their grandchildren for O'Brien, Colbert, Fallon, Kimmel, etc.  The left loves to ridicule love, marriage, fidelity, faith, commitment, honor, virtue and honesty, and this is fodder for their limp, lifeless comedy routines. When they try to ridicule Trump, he ends up being right as he was on the “wire tapping” tweet, so they have to go after Pence and a perfectly sensible comment made years ago (as I recall the meme).
