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.
Uhm no. He really fell from funny to bland in less than half a year for me.
The guy struggled with the definition of fascism like 3 months ago.
He and Colbert are white guy good guy optics dudes from television, I swear they are only 3 steps away from half of Trump’s cabinet if you put them near power.
Being a bit funny, or having done the “save the 9/11 firefighters” skit doesn’t qualify you to lead a nation. Fck the TV personality cult.
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.
I wish Stewart would run for office.
