Jon Stewart Tears Apart Dems’ ‘Idiotic’ Project 2029 Plan
Stewart predicted the plan will likely be “a rehash” of “careful nonsense.”

They’re not idiotic, they have to pretend to do something opposing the Republicans while they help them transfer all the wealth to the rich and start imperial wars around the world, otherwise normal people might catch on and do something about it.
This is it exactly. The Democrats are not on your side. They're neoliberals. They believe in the freedom of money. They are a party for rich people. This isn't a battle between left and right. It's a battle between rich and poor.
Is it time yet to consider a 3rd party?
Always has been
Why not? Every Sociopathic Oligarch is starting their own. I'm sure they'd love to
enslavehave you.
People always say the Democrats are out of touch. While that is certainly true, that's not the real issue here. The Democrats know perfectly well what they would have to do to defeat Trump. It's blindingly obvious, after all. The point is they don't want to do any of those things.
I wish Stewart would run for office.
I think if Stewart won the white house and made Colbert his press secretary, and he played the character from the Colbert report and just framed everything Stewart did as the most hardcore American Conservative stance and talked about how Republicans need to get on Stewart's level, they could actually shift the Overton window.
I understand the urge but please stop electing people from TV.
I was joking with my SO the other day about RuPaul running for president and we realised that since she's a reality TV host but also has a successful business that hasn't gone bankrupt and isn't obviously a Russian puppet, she's actually probably more qualified than the current sitting president for the job.
In most cases I agree. Stewart is not a political neophyte though. I mean it's not like he runs a reality show
His humour requires wit, understanding and nuance. His product is much more intelligent and complex than say, a competition show where people compete for a " job" with some thinly veiled gangster.
So basically he's waaaaaaay over qualified to be president.
Nah, they're the only ones we have any idea about. Not to mention zelensky has been killing it.
thats how the US got in this predicament in the first place. elect a cunt who had a single line in home alone. I mean, Schwarzenegger was gov of Cali at some point and any german speaking mf could tell you that Arnold, while beloved and a huge teddy bear, was never the sharpest bulb in the shed.
I kinda like repeated reaffirmation of a candidate's values, especially if it is very public and consistent.
Stewart is a milquetoast both-sides-er. He can criticize and he's good at it, but he stands for very little and instantly retreats behind his "I'm just a comedian" shield when pressed to take a stance.
Stands for little….really? Ask 911 first responders
John Oliver over Stewart any day.
Oliver is not qualified.
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution sets three qualifications for holding the presidency. To serve as president, one must:
- be a natural-born citizen of the United States;
- be at least 35 years old;
- be a resident in the United States for at least 14 years.
I am listening to this episode right now. He's spot on. These idiot libs seem to want another loss.
This guy got $866,425 from AIPAC in the previous 2 years.
That gives "dad are you coming to pick me up from baseball practice" vibes.
