This is one of the especially infuriating groups. These MAGA firefighters memoryholed Jon Stewart shaming Mitch McConnell and his GQP brethren into extending their benefits rather than letting them expire, ffs.

Y'all sure fuckin ~owned the libz~ tho, whooo! Enjoy that shitty cold pizza prize.

Hopefully Jon doesn’t try and fight for them this time around. They need to feel the consequences of their vote.

I have a feeling though that if Jon doesn’t fight for them they will just blame it on Jon.

Yep. I suspect Jon will keep speaking up, though. It seems he's a bigger believer in doing right by them than they are for themselves.

If he doesn't, no one should be surprised by it.

You shouldn't mistake what I said as putting any kind of faith in him. He suffers from rich white manitis, too.

Jon Stewart didn't really fight to prevent this situation at all. The man was genuinely more concerned that Biden was old than Trump being re-elected.

I mean Jon "retired" because he couldn't handle the 2016 election and then disappeared, but somehow returned when Biden was up for reelection

What are you talking about? Jon has been fighting for their health for 20 years. He literally yelled at congress for it.
