Comdedians turned political commentators. Why? Because it was lucrative. They don't have a clue what their talking about, but they have the ability to talk about anything and be entertaining. So they literally just gave them want they wanted to hear. Whatever way the wind blew, what ever was considered cool, anything that challenged the status quo or whatever way they were monetarily induced to go. It's a pretty simple recipe, doesn't take any knowledge, expertise or critical thinking to sound like some oracle if that's what people want to hear.
