Jon Stewart Rails Against ‘F*ckface Von Clownstick’ Trump...

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/11/02/jon-stewart-rails-against-f-ckface-von-clownstick-trump-for-anti-semitic-attacks.html

“To be here tonight with you guys, my heroes, on the eve of the last American election is so exciting,” Stewart began. Now that he’s out of “the game,” he said he’s been spending most of his time screaming one question at his television: “What the fuck is going on?!” Stewart said he “thought we were done” after the Billy Bush Access Hollywood tape came out just a few weeks ago. “I thought when a guy comes off a bus and is like, ‘I’m gonna grab her in the pussy,’ the election was over! Usually that is the signifier that we don’t have to pay attention anymore.”

Pivoting to media criticism, Stewart said that video “broke the news” because all pundits on CNN could talk about wsa how it would play in Pennsylvania and Ohio. “As though it’s like they’re saying in Delaware we know they like to be grabbed by the pussy.” As for Trump’s “locker room talk” defense, he added that while he’s heard some “awful things” in locker rooms, someone admitting to sexual assault is beyond the pale. “We’re all just being disgusting but I’m pretty sure that’s a crime,” he imagined someone saying.

And then there is “poor, sweet, dearest Hillary,” who was “so ready” to be president before FBI and Anthony Weiner screwed her over one last time. “This is in-fucking-sane! We were a beautiful, great country and now this,” Stewart said. “Honestly, the first woman running for president and she’s taken down by Bush and Weiner? That’s just bad writing.” After everything she went through with Bill, Stewart said, “To have another guy’s dick keep her from being president? Hillary Clinton is literally being cockblocked.”

I swear to God this is true,” he added, “the man who will more than likely, given the FBI’s preference, be our next president, then tweeted, ‘Amazing how the haters and losers keep tweeting the name #FuckFaceVonClownstick.’” And then, four days later, he added, “I shit you not, perhaps the next president of the greatest country in the world, at 1:30 in the morning, tweeted, ‘Little Jon Stewart is a pussy and would be hopeless in a debate with me.’”

“Vote wisely this November,” he concluded.

They brought us fuckfacevonclownstick and showed him constantly on the news because he drew "big ratings" and crowds - yeah, people watching the trainwreck, and all the KKK/white nationalists and anti-govt clowns found Safe Harbor in Trump's Circus Rallies!

I think if FL is as solidly ahead as we hope (48-40 within the margin of error with Hillary at minimum in a 2 point lead), then we don't have to worry, but it's not right it's even this close nationally, and I am pissed that Comey keeps getting to destroy a little bit of democracy with each action.

We needed him and he should have stuck it out til the election was over.
Trump's dominance of the media would never has gotten so entrenched had he been around to give them shit for catering to him.

Would use that as a starting point, but instead he disappeared again. Even if he could get on some more shows over the last few days, it would help.

Jon, a nation turns its lonely eyes to you.
