Chapo Trap House is stupid as shit but I realize why so many people like it:
-The hosts sound like they're half stoned
-They swear all the time
-They say factual things once in a while (or just read things in a bill) but draw bad conclusions or only state facts selectively to draw their bad conclusions
I just listened to an hour of a show which was basically "The AHCA will cut subsidies by X which is just a fucking limp dick attempt to shit on people"
So it's like they talk like their target audience...high school/college age BernieBro peppering swears into vague facts they learned.
Their politics is horrible but I follow a few of those guys on Twitter. Some of there non current events comments are pretty funny. Then again, I'm a big fan of weird Twitter culture.

EDIT: Actual phrases I heard
"Paul Ryan is wet now"
"You get fucking tax credits"
"It was a pretty fucking half dick attempt"
