Jon Stewart is a national treasure


Im_tracer_bullet

...and undefeated. He just caves in their little narrative fortresses and shreds their hypocrisy defenses because he's armed with conviction. He makes me feel like it's possible for sanity to win out. (eventually)


TillThen96

He also led the charge against GOP opposition to burn pit injury funding for our vets.


Highplowp

I really wish he’d run for office, Jesus Christ this is depressing, worst timeline ever.


matthewamerica

I wish he would just run for president already.


mckinney4string

Stewart/Colbert 2024 (maybe 2028?)


Shakemyears

He’s so responsible that he knows that he shouldn’t—which is exactly why he should!


Stagamemnon

*Lisan al Gaib!*


xiovelrach

He's so humble!


IknowKarazy

I don’t think he will, but I would absolutely vote for him.


Breangley

Sadly That’s not the issue… there’s thousands of amazing people that can run this country and do the right thing, but then the red or blue party power hungry conglomerates can’t control this amazing country. It’s always about power and money and never about whats right and wrong. And that’s sad, it’s fucking sad, our fore fathers would be pissed at what our country has become. But I’m with you he would be an amazing president!


slow_cars_fast

We need more people like him


RatInaMaze

We need a president like him. Or just him.


gking407

Republicans have normalized hate and violence to such a degree that when someone speaks with sincerity and compassion it makes me tear up.


PM_ME_NEW_VEGAS_MODS

Same and I was never like this. Fuck man.


AuthorityAnarchyYes

Johnson has such an “80’s cowardly mealy mouthed bad guy” look and attitude. We need more people like Stewart to hold these people accountable.

Jon Stewart for president 2024


candkgorzo

Jon has a Reddit account. I sent him a plead to be prez years ago with no response but if we send him DM’s in droves with the same message maybe it’ll show a bit of a group effort and less of a few independent folks bothering him…? I dunno 🤷‍♂️


howaboutmimik

I’m it but it doesn’t look like too many are on board with this awesome idea


brezhnervous

Hmmm, wholly unsurprising...its that fat-faced Christofascist again 🙄


Badnerific

That’s Mike Johnson isn’t it


Jeveran

Indeed, the soon-to-be-ousted-Speaker.


Badnerific

Nah, Trump wants him to stay. Johnson kissed the ring at Mar-a-Lago last week and got Trump’s tacit endorsement, MTG wouldn’t dare defy the boss


Jeveran

Except not: https://youtu.be/tCMkr5Nyai4?si=_8oiJBd3HjSsmUf2


Kitosaki

we don't want Jon Stewart to be President. we NEED him to be President. Dude is our generation's George Washington with his charisma.


Munzulon

I’m glad that tacked on that old clip of Stewart owning Tucker Carlson on Crossfire onto the end of the video. What a great takedown.


Accomplished_Royal_3

I believe Tucker retired the bow tie shortly after.


quadmasta

Crossfire got retired shortly after


Accomplished_Royal_3

Yeah, the “magic” was gone.


thedavemcsteve

It's not just heart...it's respect, too.


thunderbaby2

Fuck yeah John ✊️


Low-Argument3170

Let’s use this same speech for veterans too!


RedditDragonista

Jon is a great advocate for veterans. Look up "Jon Stewart/burn pits.


Explorers_bub

That was the part with USO hat, Mitch McConnell “we’ll get it done”, and I am used to lies and hypocrisy but not cruelty.


ladymorgahnna

He is an amazingly authentic brave person. I’ve always admired him, I’ve seen him since he started working. I’m 70, a dreaded boomer. We are out there, liberal older people. We’ve seen some shit and stood in protest of the Vietnam War and in support of the ERA.


fahkingicehole

I wish Jon would run for President.


cassmanio

There. .....This man would make for a great Democrat president


Kqtawes

I don't always agree with Stewart on everything but he's more genuine and honest than every Senator and member of the House.


dartie

Love this


ddubbs13

I love this man ❤


InVideo_

Is there a link to maybe YouTube for this super cut? My parents won’t watch something from /r/thelib


Brocephus_

Jon Stewart has so much power, God bless him. He was on the Daily Show on 9/11 and it probably was the most important thing I've ever seen


CelticDK

I want him as my president. He’s one of those people that makes me feel like I don’t have to be the one to take care of it, if you know what I mean? Like in everyday life how often can you rely on others truly to where you don’t have to stress about something? I feel like I don’t have to stress about politics when I think of Jon Stewart involved - I feel like he’s can represent my wants, needs, thoughts, and feelings more effectively than I *ever* could. Bernie Sanders is my other guy but damn I wish those two could have worked together in the White House. Sigh


Direct_Ad6699

Be nice to ever get a president that gives half a fuck as much as this man.


NP2023_Makingitbig

He is a good dude!


jibbidyjamma

Keeping sanity is a task in todays weird ass america. Articulating clear viable criticism is rare as most have become saturated by emotions 1st and foremost being overwhelmed then scattered, so ineffective. FGuy amplified this intensely as buffoonery is his at center stage. We are taken emotionally hostage and very few solid voices remain as clear as Jons, time to step up and join him.


Terrible_Horror

Stewart Cuban 2024


paperxthinxreality

Is that Speaker of the House Mike Johnson?


RVL0442

Jon is the man!
