'The Daily Show' accepts Musk's terms for interview with Stewart: 'We'd be delighted'
Elon Musk agreed to come on \
You're viewing a single thread.
Here’s how it’s going to go down:
- Jon will ask pointed questions.
- Elmo will respond with rhetoric, lies, half-truths, incendiary nonsense, &/or dumb jokes.
- Jon will call him out on his bullshit.
- Elmo will respond with more rhetoric, lies, half-truths, incendiary nonsense, &/or dumb jokes.
- Jon will be appalled at Musk’s lack of integrity, ethics, intelligence, or humility.
- The next day, right-wing pundits will spin it as a victory for Musk - saying he made Stewart “speechless and dumbfounded” with his amazing performance.
We know how Jon handles this exact situation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCuIxIJBfCY
Musk will be roasted and embarrassed.
God damn, thanks for this link. I’m not sure how I missed this year old video. I wish I could keep my cool as successfully as Stewart does in situations like this.
It's amazing how surgical he is while you can see he is literally shaking from anger. It's like the anger just adds fuel to the fire of his rhetorical wit.
Oh holy shit what a take down. That ending was incredible. I'd be terrified of one day meeting Jon Stewart and accidentally voicing an opinion within earshot just in case he takes issue with it.
How the heck did I miss this entire series? I've been pining for Jon since 2015, was overjoyed that he'd taken over Monday's again, and had no idea that he'd been doing a program already. Oy.
Have you seen the current speaking ability of Musk? I'd be surprised if he produces a single coherent sentence.
I hope Jon Stewart really pushes him through his filler speech and reveals Musk as stupid as he actually is.
Tho I still dont think this will happen. Musk would have to be incredibly stupid to accept this, like even more stupid than he actually is.
Replace Elon's rhetoric/lies/dumb joke non-responses with incoherent babbling and the right-wing will still say he "owned that lib".
Exactly this! I mean, I will watch it, but I won't expect anything meaningful to come out of this.
I can't see Stewart doing a puff piece. But I've been wrong before and I will be again.
