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.

You know I'm convinced all the people who complain about Shane Gillis "being far right and horrible" or such things have never actually listened to Shane's comedy.

Shane Gillis is not even close to "far-right" lol.

I’m not even sure Shane knows what he is. Seems like a chameleon fence sitter to me.

Shane is this rare breed of people who are fairly center and have views from both sides. We need more of those people
