When Joe Biden loses Jon Stewart, you know it’s over for the man. For years it was basically illegal to laugh at how pathetic Biden has performed or spoke on numerous occasions. And now…
Jon Stewart, the iconic Leftist host of “The Daily Show,” delivered a critical monologue live, reacting to the first presidential debate of 2024. The debate, a pivotal moment in the election cycle, saw incumbent President Joe Biden attempt to project vitality and coherence, yet according to Stewart, the performance was less than stellar.

Stewart pointed out that Biden’s main objective seemed to be to dispel concerns about his age and mental sharpness. However, a particular moment caught Stewart’s attention—Biden’s muddled response to a question about Medicare. Stewart humorously suggested that the confusion was so profound it might drive Democrats nationwide to despair.
The host continued his critique by noting Biden’s lackluster response to Donald Trump’s remarks during the debate. According to Stewart, Biden’s expressions and demeanor did little to reassure viewers, humorously describing it as “resting 25th Amendment face.”

More critically, Stewart expressed disappointment over Biden’s handling of the discussion on Roe v. Wade, an area where Trump has faced significant criticism. Biden inadvertently shifted the conversation to immigration, a move Trump capitalized on to his advantage. This misstep led Stewart to question the strategic approach Biden’s team had for the debate.
Highlighting the absurdity of the evening, Stewart proposed, tongue-in-cheek, that both candidates might benefit from performance-enhancing drugs to boost their clarity and problem-solving skills during debates. He joked about the extreme measures needed to enhance their debate performances, reflecting a broader frustration with the quality of political discourse observed.

To cap off his segment, Stewart, in a theatrical display of exasperation, tore up his notes and lamented the surreal nature of the political spectacle he’d just witnessed. He quipped about needing recreational drugs to cope with the reality of the situation, a humorous yet poignant reflection on the state of contemporary political debates. Stewart’s monologue not only entertained but also underscored the critical public expectation for substantive and coherent political discourse. Stewart understands and knows that if we are to have a free and fair election in November, Biden has no chance of winning. No amount of fake media will save him. Which brings us to the point of serious conflict in the United States if they try to pull another repeat at 3:30 am on Election night. America will not be as forgiving as the last scam in 2020.
