She makes some good points, but I feel more comfortable thinking of them as clueless asswipes who are actually speaking to the ignorance of the electorate in America. Notice a lot of the examples shown were on Faux News.
One of the examples, Alan West was so outrageous that he managed to embarrass Floridians for the last time and this election we booted him out. I really think he was surprised by that and contested the election results for a while. So, doesn't sound like he was trolling to get reaction, it really looks like he was clueless to the reaction that he got at the polls. So, not a troll, just another Repugnicant Asswipe.

Rachel is brilliant & I think she may have been using some psychology here by being dismissive. But she is right about Ann Coulter. She is the anti-Rachel, not very smart but loves the attention she gets with her outrageousness. You can see it on her face. So the Coultergeist fits into that category. Victoria Jackson at least appears to have some issues. My guess is the religious bullshit overwhelmed her but at least some repugs fit into the category of troll. Most are just the poster child for hate, bigotry, ignorance & power hungry religiosity.

LOL 
I watch her show often and agree with a majority of her points but Rachel has her own liberal bias sometimes too. For example, (and while I don't even want to see a fence let alone one that's electrified on our boarder with Mexico), they're not "immigrants". They're illegal immigrants. I'm sure she makes some conservatives skin crawl as much as Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, et al make mine crawl. But as to this segment on her show, I think there's generally a lot of truth in what she said. To be "fair and balanced" (like Fox News 
), there are liberal/leftie trolls as well. Alec Baldwin comes to mind with his comment about leaving the U.S. if GWB were elected. I know...not exactly on par with the examples Rachel gave but fair is fair 
.

Since liberals troll like they breathe, I guess we should take her word for it since that hack knows trolling? haha lol
I'll admit that conservative entertainment could use some work. The liberals have such a stranglehold on the entertainment industry and have become quite talented at indoctrinating people via entertainment. So I suppose the conservatives are taking the obvious approach first. It's prolly why I've been so inspired to try and push things a bit. Conservative entertainment needs to learn to incorporate themes better into art instead of just making the theme the primary focus. You can't just rely on having an intelligent message. You gotta make it something the low-information masses can absorb. Like the libs. lol
