On the verge of WW3, rampant inflation and homelessness, racial unrest, struggling economy, unchecked borders leading to overwhelming immigrant crisis…

John Stewart: “Geepers, Biden is old!”

GTFO with that shite

Jon Stewart is not centrist and never has been.

The “right” on this board makes him look like Andrew Jackson.

Hhahaa....holy shite.

If you needed more proof that Democrats are dumb, gullible and mal-informed.

You DO realize that this nonsense is the sort of thing a Conservative would post using an alter to make Democrats look incredibly stupid.

I mean, ADMITTING you get your fake-news from a Leftist stand-up comedian is just laughable....

Thanks for the heads up. That was really good.

He touched on lots of truths there. To you softies that he didn't go hard enough for your team, it was only his first show.

I especially like the part where he said that all days are important for making this country what we want it to be, not just Election Day.

Stewart shepherded that show into leftist propaganda territory before he left it.

...Comedy Central’s primetime lineup was a solid block of propaganda disguised as comedy with The Colbert Report back then.

it. He was brutal on both Biden and Trump equally and it’s hilarious.

Uhh, it wasn’t equal treatment in the slightest. Only a Lib would think that it was equal. Let me guess , Colbert is a conservative too? lol

Stewart is more honest than most anyone in or reporting on politics….no doubt

Also very funny, and he fought for 9-11 FDNY benefits

I remember when SNL use to make fun of the presidents regardless of party.

Bill Clinton

Now it is Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump and more Trump.

It has become tiring, repetitive, stupid and not funny at all especially with those Alec Baldwin Trump skits.

it will go back when the dems get a young president again.

making fun of Biden just feels like punching down. he's clearly an old dementia patient nearing death, it's more sad than funny.

the only good thing about it is he deserves to suffer for all the shite he did as a career politician.

one of the basic rules of comedy is you always punch up

they never satirized his policies, only his peccadilloes

There is a Phil Hartman interview from the '90s where he says they are harder on Clinton b/c since they agree with him, they are forced to attack his personal foibles

Or some such drivel

No they weren’t. They were the same lies just (in vain) told in a humorous slant.

He’s a left wing liar.

That says volumes. The president of the US is beyond reproach because a joke at his expense (the president of the fricking free world!) is punching down?
