I took a couple of classes in clowning, but that was more like Lucille Ball kind of slapstick, not Ringling Brothers.

Somebody who opposes Trump is wound so tight, they're not funny people anyway, that they don't get his humor. They really believe when he tells these jokes that that's dead serious stuff.
