Trevor Noah squandered the opportunity that was "The Daily Show"
- throwayyy479087 4y agoI commented above, but agreed. I never got the schtick of “you guys suck and I dislike this country I moved to” as a talk show. Ok? You chose to come here, no one says we’re perfect. It’s bizarre to me to move and stay somewhere you so clearly dislike.

Let's say once the war is over and in the Ukraine people find a fondness for Soviet nostalgia and hire a Russian to make fun of them. It's plausible. Many people would hate it despite being edgy, but some would enjoy it too. As they say in Wales, 'queer as folk'.
