    He could do the funniest thing and just start with a speech doubling down on everything he said plus take the whole situation and compare it to fascist/dictatorial leadership

        He usually pillories Trump, so it would be remarkable if he didn’t go after him. Since there are no reports that he apologized to Kirk’s family or had to donate money to TPUSA, I’m guessing he’s coming back on his own terms here.

      He should absolutely turn up the anti-Trump rhetoric even more considering he has little to lose. He’s already rich.

        I appreciate Kimmel but I’m partial to Stewart taking that Zelenskyy title in terms of his actual capacity to lead and depth of knowledge. He pretty much singlehandedly bullied Republicans of Congress to pass legislation for first responders and veterans.

        Anyone remember the Rally to Restore Sanity with Colbert / Stewart?

          I always liked watching Jon Stewart but he earned my respect when he went to bat for the 9/11 first responders who suffered illnesses related to their service. Browbeating and shaming Congress to their faces repeatedly, until they finally passed legislation to care for those people. He didn’t do it because they were all on the same political “side” as him. He did it because they needed it and they earned it.

          The man has more integrity than most of the people in D.C. and fucking balls of steel.

          I got one of those hats they were selling for the rally that said hate with the “E” xed out. It was my hat hat and I’m still upset I lost it.
