Jon Stewart to ScrewYourBorough: 'But You Said He Was Hitler"

The Daily Show host Jon Stewart tore into congressional Democrats on Monday over their shared “cope” over Vice President Kamala Harris’s defeat in the 2024 presidential election.

“Donald Trump is returning to power and so once again it is time to saddle up La Résistance,” said Stewart during a monologue. “Because, if you remember, before Trump won the election, Democrats were clear-eyed about the stakes.”

Stewart then played a compilation of congressional Democrats comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler and branding him “a threat to Democracy” who could cause “irreversible” damage to the country.

“I assume now that the Democrats have lost to the greatest threat we’ve ever faced as a nation that they will be forthright in acknowledging, one, the Democrats’ role in this catastrophic defeat and, two, the bleak hellscape we now face,” he continued, before playing clips of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) trying to put a positive spin on the results of the election with boasts that the Democrats managed to “flip three House seats.”

My nickname for my former congressman comes from his quitting in a fit of pique two months after his re-election when George W. Bush didn't reward him with a suitable bigwig D.C. gig for being their attack dog during the recount. It cost our county - one of Florida's poorest - bucks we didn't have to run a special election to replace his worthless, social climbing butt.

The blessing of it all was getting Jeff Miller in his stead. What a wonderful man he is. I wish he would have hung around a little longer, but he truly is a citizen legislator and went home to his farm after a couple of terms.
