I'm very wary of doing political stuff for a lot of reasons. One of the big ones is that the shelf-life for them is not very long, and the joke becomes old news very quickly.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I always feel that most political jokes, if you're going to do them, you have to do them within the next five minutes, or else they're outdated. By the time you've got it to the point that it's strong, it would be 12 years old.
The fine line that you do when you do political comedy is, as long as you have that laugh, you're fine.
There's plenty of room for humor in politics, God knows, but it's a serious business.
It would be really hard to get serious about anything political today unless it was a joke.
Saying you have a political solution is like saying you can write a pop song that's going to stay at the top of the list forever. I don't have many illusions about this, but I'm not cynical about it.

I don't really have funny things to say about politics. I wish I did, but I don't.
