    The Epstein joke about people being his friends was ruthless.

    I loved The Ricky Gervais Show when it was on HBO - it was animation of the best bits of his podcast with Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington. But Gervais basically has one mode / trick - nihilistic shitting on everything - and it can definitely wear thin after X years.

    Well, yeah, but those play well with the GOP set. They like their jokes well worn and familiar.

    But that's the vast majority of the time, no?

    Moving beyond presidential races to elected offices in general, off the top of my head...

    Democrats:
    Al Franken

    Republicans:
    Donald Trump
    Ronald Reagan
    Sonny Bono
    Arnold Schwarzenegger
    Clint Eastwood
    Fred Grandy
    Fred Thompson
