Just watched it, what it basically boils down to is that nowadays most "comedy" from US conservatives isn't meant to be funny, it's meant to "own the libs." So instead of coming up with witty, valid criticism of Democrats, they do whatever they can to try to get a rise out of them, which leads to a bunch of nonsense that is more concerned with making a political point and upsetting people than it is with actually being funny or even true.
