Summary
Jon Stewart mocked Donald Trump’s reaction to the war plan leak, accusing him of exhibiting “quick onset dementia” whenever faced with accountability.
Stewart noted Trump’s aloof response to the security breach, where classified war plans were leaked via a Signal group chat mistakenly including a journalist.
Stewart criticized Trump’s repeated denial pattern, comparing it to previous instances where Trump distanced himself from controversial actions.
He also condemned the “crazy arrogance” of officials involved in the chat, calling the situation a major national security blunder.
Naw, I quit him on the “don’t call it fascism” episode.
I was a bit annoyed with that too, but he seems to have realized that he gave Trump an inch, and Trump took a mile. Like. He. Always. Does.
In recent weeks, he’s been a bit more aggressive in calling a spade a spade.
Maybe I’ll give him another chance sometime but it burned me pretty bad.
I get it. I wasn’t thrilled either.
But he was right. You the American people voted for him. So just because you didn’t agree with Trump doesn’t mean it was fascist. Calling everything he does fascist when it isn’t erodes the term for stuff he does that actually is.
These people are fascists, hands down. People like you and Jon that need to shove your head up your butt and pretend they aren’t to feel okay are the reason it’s taken hold.
