I recall >=3 levels of linguistic ironic detachment in High School. First: basic humorous incongruity between literal speech and intended meaning. 2nd level: doing this defensively where you mean what you say but "have an out". 3rd: Pretending to need an out as a status move.
This GIF is pitch perfect 3rd level irony. Baldwin portrays a caricature of 2nd level irony. He doesn't care if typecasting hurts his noob audience appeal. To SAVVY anti-Trump audiences he (1) shows confidence vs typecast risks and (2) loyalty to the cause of bashing Trump.pic.twitter.com/wdylSMPyU3

Oldschool Colbert on Comedy Central was so nuanced and friendly as a "fake bad conservative" that some conservatives thought he was doing 2nd or 4th level irony and was secretly "on their side" *against* his mainstream liberal audiences. Maybe he was really doing 5 levels?pic.twitter.com/kW0nstc8Ci
