I follow the same rule as well, but less about giving him relevance and more about highlighting everything around him being the worst. Dotard is a clown act, one fit for late night so I actually want Stephen to call him out by name all the time. However, politically he achieves nothing and is a loud mouth racist with barely any authority or control. Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan OTOH, I've never had more genuine contempt for any living than these two and everything they represent.

I must say I always welcome more of these information comedy shows. John Oliver, Samantha bee, now hasan, the daily show-this is a great way to educate people and keep them engaged. It also helps that everyone involved in these shows is both incredible funny and talented and dedicated to accuracy and fact checking. Comedians are now doing some pretty impressive journalism/education. I know so many people who are more informed about issues and the world because of these people. Hassan’s show is very good too. I love that each show has a host from a different background because I’ve found it incredibly informative hearing from a different perspective.

He seemed to interact with him like he does most of his guests. I read zero hostility in their interaction and they actually looked as if they hit it off well. I guess if you were thinking Colbert should be hostile to Hasan Minaj for some reason (not sure why), then you would perceive some undertone of hostility. But, I just do not see it all. In fact, I think it is weird for anyone to say they saw it. But, KZbin comments tend to be weird and random.

And Hassan was so respectful of him.

Loved Patriot act, a good shift from just mindless roasting or jokes to funny plus educative facts and learning. More power to that kind of shows.

Loved how he spin it back to the host about being an immigrant. Intelligent comedian.
