Lol! Wut? Jon Stewart got Tucker Carlson cancelled back when he was still in his bow tie phase. And the reason he occasionally knocks the left, is because those "facts" he covers, indicate the left needs to occasionally reflect on some shit, too.

    Yeah. He got a lot of shit, upon his return, for criticizing the left’s unwillingness to even engage about conversation about Biden’s age.

    Turns out he was right.

    Which kind of sums up a lot of the pundits "on the left". They are focused on being right, not on being a party (in large part because the Democrats have increasingly been "We are not republicans" for decades now but...).

    I don't think there is anyone who wasn't concerned about Biden's age. But we were past the point for a real primary and he was the candidate. So you support his senile ass. Because he is the candidate and we need to win. And when he finally got kicked out and it was Kamala's turn? You support fucking Kamala. There is plenty of time to do after actions after we lose. NOBODY was going to win a presidential campaign in, what was it, like four months? But they sure as hell weren't going to win if they were the third candidate in three weeks. You keep that kind of shit behind closed doors until we know one way or another.

    Contrast that with the chuds where they all click their heels and start goose stepping once the primaries are over.

    The "shit" isn't about pointing out very real concerns. The "shit" is about doing the republican's jobs for them.

    Jon Stewart did not get Carlson cancelled. Carlson got fired because he was belligerent to his bosses at Fox.

    You never saw the time Stewart went on his show and absolutely skewered his ass, in front of his entire audience? It was brutal. After that he started hemorrhaging viewers. Whatever drama that resulted was the direct result of that take-down, and he got canceled shortly after that. It took years for Carlson to reestablish his reputation.
