<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/meghan-mccain" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Meghan McCain</a> said <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/trevor-noah" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Trevor Noah</a> is another &#8220;bootlicking comedian&#8221; who is &#8220;too scared to be funny&#8221; in response to his announcement about leaving &#8220;The Daily Show,&#8221; which she said was &#8220;a long time coming.&#8221;</p>
<p>The former co-host of &#8220;The View&#8221; wrote an op-ed for the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11267365/Trevor-Noah-ruining-Daily-MEGHAN-MCCAIN.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daily Mail</a> Friday, titled &#8220;I loved The Daily Show and Trevor Noah ruined it — the best comedy punches up at the powerful but today&#8217;s late-night hosts are too scared to be funny.&#8221;</p>
<p>In the piece, McCain shared that after Noah took over for late-night host Jon Stewart in 2015, the comedy show has &#8220;slogged into mediocrity and quite frankly, boredom&#8221; as she talked about the host being more interested in his “‘cool kid&#8217; clout in the media.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/meghan-mccain-says-one-reason-she-left-the-view-is-because-she-didnt-feel-supported-after-having-a-baby" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The former Fox News host said</a> &#8220;comedy is supposed to be … punching up and speaking truth to power,&#8221; but &#8220;instead, Noah and his ilk were content to go along with the in-crowd. Too bad for them that audience is pretty small.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Gone are the days of Johnny Carson and Jay Leno, who were apolitical and watched by more than 10 million on any given night,&#8221; Meghan shared. &#8220;Obviously, America&#8217;s media landscape and the TV business has changed since then. Even in his heyday, Stewart couldn&#8217;t reach those ratings-heights. But funny is still funny. And it&#8217;s something our late-night comedians have long forgotten.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Today&#8217;s bootlicking comedians are so afraid to make a joke at the expense of their political favorites and the result is that they just aren&#8217;t funny,&#8221; she added. &#8220;How is it that SNL is not mocking Joe Biden and Kamala Harris every single night?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Our aging president looks lost in public and even his allies admit it,&#8221; McCain continued. &#8220;Harris can&#8217;t get through a single public appearance without blurting out an incomprehensible word salad.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/meghan-mccain-calls-joy-behar-pathetic-for-trolling-former-view-co-hosts-valentines-day-tweet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">McCain</a> said we can &#8220;no longer laugh together&#8221; because of the polarization in America.</p>
<p>&#8220;If the elites that control comedy have decided that Democrats are off-limits because President Trump was so evil, then we are all screwed,&#8221; the former co-host added. &#8220;No one should be off limits. More often than not, late night comedy just feels like another news show on MSNBC.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t want any more lectures,&#8221; McCain continued. &#8220;I want to laugh. So how do you save &#8216;The Daily Show&#8217; and late-night TV for that matter? Hire a comedian who wants to be a barn burner, who isn&#8217;t beholden to an agenda, political party or ideology. Someone who wants to call out hypocrisy, corruption, the absolute absurdity of our current political climate and feckless politicians.&#8221;</p>
