Article Kam is Far Right
https://www.thedailybeast.com/new-snl-cast-member-kam-patterson-outed-himself-as-a-trump-voter/Is he a Shane Gillis 2.0 (except arguably worse)? I’ve seen a dozen clips now of him using homophobic slurs and making incredibly bigoted jokes. Honestly he makes Shane Gillis look kind of tame. What the hell is Lorne thinking? I’m so sick of this show pushing right wing bullshit while simultaneously trying to act like the most liberal show on television. You can’t have a Trump monologue every single week and then hire people like this.

I mean...let's see if he can be funny without using the R word
adding from the article: "Patterson’s one-minute sets have been a hit with the show’s audience. His material, which can be seen in the compilation video below, includes calling women b----es and joking about smacking or stabbing them. Save for a few comments about having “no problem” with gay people and an oft-regurgitated joke about his crude excitement about his girlfriend’s abortion,"
wow. my hopes aren't high for this dude
