At this point, this isn't surprising. Disappointing, yes, but barely.
What new "material" did Dave think up to dunk on trans people? Did he find that holy grail of "LiBeRaL hYpOcRiSy!" that gets right wingers foaming at the mouth?
At this point, he's just a washed up, mainstream entertainer doing culture war bits instead of actual comedy. Like, you're still doing trans jokes, my guy? 2012 called and wanted its asinine kneejerk takes back. He's always been the king of bad takes (defending statutory rape involving R Kelly, victim blaming R Kelly's victims, questioning the age of consent laws in America) and has exercised BROKEN logic in the past in order to make jokes land, but that's the difference between old Dave and new Dave: HIS JOKES WERE ACTUALLY FUNNY AND MITIGATED HIS BAD TAKES.
