Some think conservatives make bad comedians and liberals make bad action heroes. They may or may not have a point. Judging by the conservative members lack of activity on this thread they are right, but judging by their activities in other parts of the forum they sometimes try their best .
No, seriously it would be nice if the posts here were a little more diverse.
I know of several liberal comedians in the US (Last Week Tonight, Michael Moore etc.) Who are the best and best known more politically conservative comedians?

My experience is that liberals have a brilliant sense of humour when conservatives are being ridiculed -not so much when the joke's on them.
That this site lacks a diversity of political expression (or 'humour') should surprise no one. Nobody wants to be the last Texan in the Alamo when Santa Ana and his boys are holding court.

Agree 100% . Liberal " humour" spiteful beyond belief e.g. Severed head of Trump, calling his son autistic , making jokes about Mitt Romney's African American grandson etc etc.
Conservatives like Stephen Crowder very funny
Well, David Crocket and the others fought back. The examples 007Downunder mention is of cource horrible, but in my experience not typical. I could just as well mention Trump's mocking of the disabled reporter. But I don't think it represents conservative humor, just as 007DU's examples are hardly typical of liberal humor.

The Trump camp becoming defensive - now that's a political joke for sure!
As for the "autistic son", I am sure that you remember Trump mocking on Serge Kovaleski?
And the parallel is still not there. Trump's son (Donald Junior??) is not autistic but behaves like he is in his echo-chamber.
So nobody mocked about an existing handicap - well except Trump himself.
See what I've done here...
If anyone from the Trump camp complains about ANY joke from the other side, I recommend checking what candidate Trum said and did during his campain and think again.
President of the 'Misty Eyes Club'.
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
He fought for his life and his country. There's nothing worth fighting for in a liberal echo-chamber...best to just let them beat their chests and watch from the other side of the glass.

It's just a thread to share some funny political jokes, not a competiton between ideologien. Let's just have a laugh, and that's best done if more people join in.
I have posted jokes about Obama and both the Clintons. My only criteria for me posting a joke here is that I find it funny. I don't think it's to anyone's benefit if some members feel like victims - join the fun instead!
Many of the jokes here are about Trump or Brexit, anything else would be strange since it's in the news. I would expect the thread to have lost of Obama jokes if it started up years ago.

If a toilet with our president's mouth meets this thread's definition of humour, no, I don't have such a sense of 'humour.' I wouldn't think it was funny if it were Obama, or Hillary, or Merkel, or Blair or whomever. Some seem to be in a race to the sewer. I suppose that's down to taste.
I'm quite secure in my own sense of humour, and certainly don't have to justify or prove anything to such a group of comic geniuses.
A question was asked about why conservatives don't contribute here; I gave my opinion. I've previously been called a 'troll' for sharing my opinion on these things - no doubt that will happen now. Very funny stuff, gents.

As I've posted the toilet in Barcelona, I guess that I am addressed...
I found it funny, just because it's Trump.
That's me. You don't like it, don't laugh.
Again, just look back what candidate Trump let out during his trial incase that that pic offends you.
I hope that we can continue now with the jokes because if the discussion continues - this will be closed.
But maybe that's the purpose of some comments recently.

My most sincere apologies, folks, I've been busy most of the weekend and haven't had much time to be here.
Thread belatedly closed, as could be expected. Not because of political discussion, but because it's getting personal.
Awaiting PMs.
Q: What is the difference between socialism and capitalism?
A: Capitalism makes social mistakes while socialism makes capital mistakes.
Q: The Central Committee of the Communist Party offered me a job as a secretary. Should I accept?
A: Yes. Your only duties will be saying, "Yes, Comrade," and at night, "No, Comrade."
Q: Yesterday, I wanted to buy some bananas, however, at the store there was only one banana and it was past its prime. How is a guy supposed to choose?
A: The same way you choose during the elections.
Q: Why is our supply of meat so irregular and unpredictable?

There's a term for presidents like Trump.
Probably not two terms though.
Donald Trump walks into a bar ...
And lowers it.
Bill Gates has agreed to pay for Donald Trump's wall.
On the condition he gets to install windows.
What's going to replace ObamaCare?
Don.T.Care
What's the difference between Donald Trump and an orange?
An orange has a thick skin.
A swastika has been spray painted over Donald Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The police says it's impossible to tell if it was done by Trump's opponents or his supporters.
