@@llew777 sadly, if more interviews were like this, they'd just stop giving interviews completely. Already most of them only go on Fox News or even more extreme sources.
I love when these politicians try to change the subject, Jon is able to abide and link the new topic back to the original as even more evidence to counter the original argument. It goes from guns to voters rights to school shootings to trans rights right back to guns, intersectionality of issues coming together as a deadly combination of hypocrisy. Good on Steward for having a solid retort from all angles.
Absolutely. I love how he rolls with them and they get this false sense of security like they successfully deflected away from the argument... only to realize he has 5 more points to make on this new subject that are gonna hit them even harder.
Conservatives aren't smart enough to get it. They would just be like "that guy OWNED Stewart!" Cuz reality means nothing to people that think flying the flag of the enemies of the usa, and trying to overthrow the government, makes them Patriots...
John Stewart was *shaking* .. I come here to rewatch this every once in awhile just to get a taste of genuine righteous rage that seems absent in our government bodies.
his series is all like this. he tells some jokes, and there are some lighthearted moments; but the majority of the time he's very serious, quite a lot like this.
How does Canada not allow guns? New Zealand had one mass shooting and immediately took care of it. Why,other than Greed,can’t we stop these tragedies?😢
@@cindyjones8284 The greedy politicians have convinced their base that it is anything other than greed and that same voter base has made guns 50% of their personal identity. They view politics more as a sports game and vote for their own team blindly and question nothing. They even have a very unfancy, red, team hat!
The republicans argument is based on if you throw more at something things happen but umm throwing untrained children into fire fighting would be just how more children start to not make it
It isn't hard because they keep saying the same false things and someone capable of rational thought just has to sit and think about it for a few seconds. Jon is well informed about the issue and articulate so this was super easy for it.
He was also wrong. The leading cause of death isn't gun violence, it's abortions. People need to do their own research. Gun control isn't about guns, it's about control. Fuck the government 🖕
@@cloudstone123oh, i think it's hard. most of us couldn't do it. you're right that he's articulate and comes prepared; but he also doesn't get flustered, and he's able to respond in realtime. maybe you're a good debater like he is; but i think most people do need a few seconds to formulate a response, and being able to make that response a cogent argument is a skill most people don't have. i watched a debate he had with bill o'reilly back in bush era, and while he was more lighthearted then, he was just as quick on his feet. he was also willing to concede where he's been out-argued on a point, which, frankly, i believe is a sign of maturity lol.
Gun control is the easiest argument to destroy conservatives in because all they have backing them are a couple of sentences in the Constitution, depending on a purist interpretation of the second amendment, which many academics would argue is an inappropriate reading. They have no facts. No science. Only culture wars and “you can’t take my guns 😡” nonsense.
they underestimate him to their detriment. they think he's just some dumb comedian, but the man KNOWS HIS SHIT. Better than them, better than most people. JS for prez!
How does he maintain his cool ? I'm not a hothead but I could not do what he does. I 'd be screaming my head off because I hate liars and that's what 99.9% of Repukes are. JUST A FACT
Jon's timing is so impeccable. When he interrupts the pol saying "... the government does have a responsibility to protect..." "I'm sorry?" Chef's kiss priceless!
He's so sharp and fast and doesn't give any ground to these buffoons to air their talking points. He knows exactly what they're going to say before even they do. Katie Porter is the same. We need wayyy more people like that to fight these fucking idiotic buffoons.
Yeah, same here. We have plenty of shutguns and huntung rifles. And all of those are for hunting purposes. There are strict laws that those have to be kept in locked safe to prevent stealing. And it gives plenty of extra time for spouses and kids to run away from house when somebody gets drunk mad. And it is a bit harder to hide a gun under your jacket 😅
i agree with you. i assume you hang out with other gun owners - based on your personal experience, do they feel that way too? would you keep hanging out with them if they disagreed?
I want to reiterate a point. I'm not a gun owner. Frankly, I'm of the opinion that I'll pick up a firearm when the zombie apocalypse breaks out. But I will not infringe on a persons right to responsibly own firearms, emphasis on RESPONSIBLY! Guns should not be readily available to everyone because the ownership should be treated as more a privilege than a right. if you're driving down the street and you look over and see see a driver steering with his feet, you might want to get off that road and wonder who let that nutcase get behind a wheel, right? Same principle. So I commend you sir for, I assume, being a responsible and legal gun owner and recognizing the fact that not every should own a gun, legally or otherwise.
Exactly right my friend. & as he says, he's not against the right for people to have personal firearms but there are checks that need to be in place. History bears that out & its not going to stop every criminal shooting but there needs to be protections in place as well as maintaining freedom for responsible gun owners. Its almost the impossible balance but because something is difficult doesnt mean you give up trying to get that balance as right as society can. We'll never please everybody but the questions should always be asked about what suits society best. If everybody was responsible we wouldnt need any rules but this isnt make believe & some people dont give a damn about others so some rules are not only a neccessity but essential.
That last bit where he yells a profanity directly to a politician, a grimy one at that, is exactly how many of us would like to address the ineptitude these crooks subject us on a daily.
Just putting it out there, but we (in the U.S.) CAN talk to our leaders that way. It's our constitutional right (first amendment) to be able to chew them out for their incompetence.
Stewart is one of the most effective debaters against the conservative side of these issues, because he so effectively breaks things down to their simplest components and shows how they will hold a double standard of “this should be a universal rule” and “I don’t want anything to be a universal rule that affects this because I like it” at the same time. Perfect dissections of weak arguments through and through.
They cannot be held accountable because they all lie and there would be no one left to govern the country. The most infamous lying is probably Colin Powell's 'every claim a lie' speech at the UN about the non-existent Iraqi WMDs. That progressed to an illegal attack which led to a million deaths. Nobody even suggested that Powell should be held accountable for his litany of lies and it is never going to happen.
"I'm not going to talk to 'Little John'. He's made clear that he's a pawn of the lying media. It's obvious that I would win that debate, because I know words, I have the best words. Everybody says so." 🤪

Yeah, let's keep challenging ideas and have long and "meaningful" debates, while the planet continues to burn and while the tipping point of no return in terms of climate change approaches faster and faster. We will all be very proud in 50 years about all the long debates that we had. Billionaires can continue to write nice books about effective altruism and we can shoot hundreds of millions of refugees in the next decades. And let's not forget to challenge ideas and talking about reforming the system.
Yeah just like katie Hobbs?...Fetterman's single live debate.....etc ....I agree, for certain levels office their should by law three live debates prior to voting with no aid or assistance of any kind
If "shall not be infringed" meant what republicans claim it means, then you could not legally take guns away from prisoners. Nor could you stop plane passengers from carrying guns.
Yep. We already have rules and regulations around rights (voting only being for people of x age, and felons not being able to vote). They pretend like the second amendment is somehow holier.
to them it literally means "shall no be infringed" for white straight people but as we have seen with civil rights movement when the black panthers flexed their gun rights all of a sudden they started adding restrictions.
If "shall not be infringed" meant what republicans claim it means, then there would be no need for ANY firearms regulations and all guns would be free.
@@seanscanlon9067 Well we know republicans don't actually care about the constitution. If guns make us safer why are guns banned from every political rally for republicans?
Yes, of course. Republicans are all playing to their base right now. That’s why they want to suppress democracy, because the country as a whole doesn’t agree with their agenda

I wish more people were as good as Jon Stewart is at staying on topic and refusing to let the person being interviewed scamper away from any questions they want to avoid. Absolute master class.
Jon’s best tactic is letting the other person think they’re scampering away only to find themselves stuck in a very deep pile of their own BS. He’s a master and he’s been doing it for years.
I had to have a background check to volunteer in my children's elementary school. When we moved in the next school I had to be finger printed. To volunteer in an elementary school. A background check to purchase a firearm, that kills people, is just common sense.
Many of the alt. right would fail a background check, especially if it included a psychological assessment, because they are violent people, and should not be allowed to own guns because they have difficulty controlling themselves. Who carries out these mass shootings--it's almost exclusively Trump supporters and adherents to the alt. right. The only reason they may have no criminal record is the fact that white people often get off with a warning or a lesser charge in cases that would result in prison for a black person. They threaten to kill people if they say something they don't like, and they always have underlying violence in the way they act. The whole reason they vote and call themselves "political" although with no principles and no political platform or knowledge of politics or issues at all, is the opportunity to crush their enemies using the power of gov't, which they see as the entire reason to seek power. A simple questionnaire would reveal their violent tendencies instantly. If they failed they would deny they were violent, then threaten to kill the person doing the background check and the owner of the sporting goods store.
He would definitely not run for either of the two main parties so there would be like a 98.99% he wouldn’t be elected. I think he would 1000% shake things up though lol
The fact that Jon Stewart used to be on a show that aired right before crankyankers and yet has better, more pressing interviews than most of mainstream media says something. Jon is a national treasure.

I remember when he was on Fox News debating someone and criticized them for not pressing them for an answer and they tried to throw it back at him and he replied (paraphrase), "I'm on a comedy network between puppets who make crank calls and a cartoon of fourth graders who curse."
@@citizenjamesford Yeah, that was Tucker Carlson on Crossfire in 2004. Jon obliterated Tucker and almost single-handedly ended that joke of a show... Tucker had to reinvent himself as the bullshit salesman he is, and start the "white power hour" show he has now. The uneducated just LOVE him! Oh, and he ditched the bow tie finally too. That was his other claim to fame.
Last I checked (and it's worse now) the U.S. had 138 times more gun deaths than Britain. *That's a 13,800% increase.* Even a complete fool would be alarmed by a 150% increase.
I can't believe John Stewart is arguing for pro drag shows for children. The drag show in Dallas had a florescent sign on the stage which read "it ain't going to lick itself"!
He created the tightest argument possible and left literally no space for illogic whatsoever. This is debate 101 on how to destroy bad faith arguments with truth. He cut off every escape route perfectly. Not an easy thing to do but utterly impressive demonstration here by Jon.
Jon Stewart is in a league of his own.... just on another level... He just neatly walks the Rep right into it... and the Rep doesn't realize it until he actually got there.. F-in brilliant..
@teotronia It clearly stated the right of the "People" to bear arms shall not be infringed. No where does it say the right of the militia to bear arms. If the founding fathers only wanted the militias to have arms they would have stated so.

Damn Jon got him! with the drag queen free speech, getting him to say the government needs protect children, but before he even finishes saying it he realizes his contradiction. Pure genius.
Well, drag queens shouldn’t be involved with kids in schools. Schools shouldn’t be hosting drag queens. But if there is a drag story hour in a bookstore or other places not fed funded, and the parents want to take the kids, go for it.

It's so unbelievable how well Jon thinks on his feet, in the moment! Such clarity where facts are concerned, and ability to cut right through the bs so immediately!
And the Really Sad thing is, that this Republican, and all other Republican office-holders are not swayed one bit by logic, facts, and common sense. God only knows how these idiots keep getting re-elected time after time. It is just stupefying!

You see it often. A good speaker can make you believe a lie. This is coming from a cynical guy (me), so keep that in mind.
Yeah I’ve never known him to be wrong, especially intentionally. GOP and MAGA have weak convoluted arguments and Jon is best at what he does. The combination is what makes it look extra good.
EVERY journalist, radio, and TV personality should take note. When some GOP clown fails to answer a question, DO NOT let them off the hook and move on. Kudos!

It blows my mind that someone has to (quite rightly) be of legal age, and take a multistage test to prove their competence, knowledge, and suitability, in order to obtain a licence to drive a car, and then have to register any car that they buy, yet (a handful of states excepted) anyone can own an unregistered firearm without so much as a background check. It's madness.
Kinder eggs I read are banned from being sold in Texas because the small toy contained within is a potential choke hazard. AK47s however are for sale no problem 😂
And to add to the irony, most people use a car for transportation, but in the wrong hands, a car can be a lethal weapon, so we regulate them. The entire purpose of a gun is to be a lethal weapon...but no regulation?
We should regulate the gun owner, NOT THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMs by registering the guns. Require gun owners to register THEIR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS, just as we require VOTERS TO REGISTER their RIGHT TO VOTE.
Katie Porter yes, Jon Stewart no. This is the same dude who defended Chris Cuomo when Chris got caught lying about having done quarantine when he had COVID. Stewart criticized Joe Biden's withdraw from Afghanistan because "it cut into the profits of the defense contractors, is that fair to them?"
Ben shapiro would eat jon stewart for breakfast. Knives kill more people than guns do every year - will lliberals argue to heavily regulate knives next?
Every single rep and senator should have to be grilled by Jon Stewart. He absolutely takes no bs from these people. Beautiful to watch, magic, just pure magic.
If C-SPAN consisted solely of Stewart interviewing politicians and Katie Porter interviewing CEO's I'd never watch another channel for the rest of my life!
That’s pure fucking brilliance. John Stewart is a national treasure and I sure wish I could shake his hand and give him a hug. Also huge shout out to Brian. He is doing outstanding work and I love him as well.

He needs to run in 2028. The Democratic party is incapable or unwilling to put forward a single candidate that anyone likes, and have since 2015 campaigned at their hardest against the D candidate with the highest approval rating like their lives depended on it.
When they have the balls to use that thing called an amendment. I love Jim Jeffries take on this when he's talking about some mass shooting in Australia that actually got good legislation passed over there. The land of convicts has more sense than the USA... /sigh
The smartest ones never want to lead, they’re perfectly content minding their own business. And our world is heavily screwed up because of these decisions
It sucks that all the best political opinions in America come from the comedians that don’t wanna run. And the people who HATE cancel culture still cancelled the one that made it to the senate
This way of thinking turns them into good but just dumb people where I think the opposite is true. They know full well what they are doing and talking about, he is lobbying for the gun industry and lining his pockets 😉
It’s called being disingenuous. They are fully aware, they just have ZERO shame in misleading their voting base to believing the bullshit lies and logical fallacies they push to forward their narrative.
We need him, we need the logic of his understanding the republican’s hypocritical illogical rationale to be laid bare for everyone in the way he does make it that a preschool child could understand
Bingo. Something that should be taught and elicited from our journalists pronto. Most are cowed and/or awed by the personality they are interviewing and lose their focus, clear thinking and reasoning, allowing the one being interviewed to shape the narrative to their advantage. And they wind up seeming more of a collaborator than a journalist.

Jon was prepared for every argument. He didn't even flinch for a second
It isn't hard because they keep saying the same false things and someone capable of rational thought just has to sit and think about it for a few seconds. Jon is well informed about the issue and articulate so this was super easy for it.
He was also wrong. The leading cause of death isn't gun violence, it's abortions. People need to do their own research. Gun control isn't about guns, it's about control. Fuck the government 🖕
@@cloudstone123 🎯
@@cloudstone123oh, i think it's hard. most of us couldn't do it. you're right that he's articulate and comes prepared; but he also doesn't get flustered, and he's able to respond in realtime. maybe you're a good debater like he is; but i think most people do need a few seconds to formulate a response, and being able to make that response a cogent argument is a skill most people don't have.
i watched a debate he had with bill o'reilly back in bush era, and while he was more lighthearted then, he was just as quick on his feet. he was also willing to concede where he's been out-argued on a point, which, frankly, i believe is a sign of maturity lol.
Gun control is the easiest argument to destroy conservatives in because all they have backing them are a couple of sentences in the Constitution, depending on a purist interpretation of the second amendment, which many academics would argue is an inappropriate reading. They have no facts. No science. Only culture wars and “you can’t take my guns 😡” nonsense.
Holy shit... I have never seen anyone get so thoroughly eviscerated in my entire life!
Lmao!!
ME NEITHER wasn't it GREAT?!!!
they underestimate him to their detriment.
they think he's just some dumb comedian, but the man KNOWS HIS SHIT. Better than them, better than most people. JS for prez!
Wow! Only Jon Stewart can do that with such non-aggressive confidence
Oh it was aggressive,just not in a Violent way. He fkg obliterated that gop clown
I would say Jordan Kleeper is a close second. Lol
OMG I have missed the plain and open and articulate common sense of JON . So so happy to have him back !
I admire Jon's ability to keep calm and make lucid arguments while at the same time not forgetting his comedic roots and pull a few sarcastic punches.
How does he maintain his cool ? I'm not a hothead but I could not do what he does. I 'd be screaming my head off because I hate liars and that's what 99.9% of Repukes are. JUST A FACT
makes me so mad that there's people out there like this. love john for getting him
It's Jon Stewart. John Stewart is Green Lantern.
And he is a senator!
Jon's timing is so impeccable. When he interrupts the pol saying "... the government does have a responsibility to protect..." "I'm sorry?" Chef's kiss priceless!
Yeah, it’s beautiful using their own talking points against them and showing their complete hypocrisy.
It was glorious
He's so sharp and fast and doesn't give any ground to these buffoons to air their talking points. He knows exactly what they're going to say before even they do. Katie Porter is the same. We need wayyy more people like that to fight these fucking idiotic buffoons.
Pure gold.
Exactment mon fre...
John Stewart is legitimately a legend at this point.
He's the GOAT
Presidential material!
We already had one crazy, bad president from TV.
Why not a crazy good one from TV?
I have more guns than I know, but Jon Stewart here wins this debate hands down. I am a "gun-nut" who believes not everyone should own a gun.
Yeah, same here. We have plenty of shutguns and huntung rifles. And all of those are for hunting purposes. There are strict laws that those have to be kept in locked safe to prevent stealing. And it gives plenty of extra time for spouses and kids to run away from house when somebody gets drunk mad. And it is a bit harder to hide a gun under your jacket 😅
i agree with you. i assume you hang out with other gun owners - based on your personal experience, do they feel that way too? would you keep hanging out with them if they disagreed?
I wish I could like this more than once, I applaud you sir.
I want to reiterate a point. I'm not a gun owner. Frankly, I'm of the opinion that I'll pick up a firearm when the zombie apocalypse breaks out. But I will not infringe on a persons right to responsibly own firearms, emphasis on RESPONSIBLY! Guns should not be readily available to everyone because the ownership should be treated as more a privilege than a right. if you're driving down the street and you look over and see see a driver steering with his feet, you might want to get off that road and wonder who let that nutcase get behind a wheel, right? Same principle. So I commend you sir for, I assume, being a responsible and legal gun owner and recognizing the fact that not every should own a gun, legally or otherwise.
Exactly right my friend. & as he says, he's not against the right for people to have personal firearms but there are checks that need to be in place. History bears that out & its not going to stop every criminal shooting but there needs to be protections in place as well as maintaining freedom for responsible gun owners. Its almost the impossible balance but because something is difficult doesnt mean you give up trying to get that balance as right as society can. We'll never please everybody but the questions should always be asked about what suits society best. If everybody was responsible we wouldnt need any rules but this isnt make believe & some people dont give a damn about others so some rules are not only a neccessity but essential.
That was a master class on how to debate a hypocrite.
Jon set the trap and let him walk into it masterfully…
Their belief is a lie that they con themselves with. Stupid doesn't work on everyone, especially not Jon.
That last bit where he yells a profanity directly to a politician, a grimy one at that, is exactly how many of us would like to address the ineptitude these crooks subject us on a daily.
Yeah I loved that. Yet when they're finished. Jon has enough tact hand them their ass back to them in a cardboard box.
So right! “Crooks” and murderers.
Agreed!!
Loved it.
Just putting it out there, but we (in the U.S.) CAN talk to our leaders that way. It's our constitutional right (first amendment) to be able to chew them out for their incompetence.
Stewart is one of the most effective debaters against the conservative side of these issues, because he so effectively breaks things down to their simplest components and shows how they will hold a double standard of “this should be a universal rule” and “I don’t want anything to be a universal rule that affects this because I like it” at the same time. Perfect dissections of weak arguments through and through.
Jon has been a great voice on a lot of these issues, Sadly I don't it's possible to change these peoples minds
@@BruceOMalley It’s just a thought…

I’d be satisfied if they were just held responsible for being stupid.
I wish the people who voted for the traitors were held responsible!!
They cannot be held accountable because they all lie and there would be no one left to govern the country. The most infamous lying is probably Colin Powell's 'every claim a lie' speech at the UN about the non-existent Iraqi WMDs. That progressed to an illegal attack which led to a million deaths. Nobody even suggested that Powell should be held accountable for his litany of lies and it is never going to happen.

Can we get Jon Stewart to interview Donald Trump 🙏🏼

That could be a record setting PPV lol
Oh please oh please oh pleeeeaaaaase!
These are the kind of interviews we need. All politicians need to be challenged on their positions
Yeah, let's keep challenging ideas and have long and "meaningful" debates, while the planet continues to burn and while the tipping point of no return in terms of climate change approaches faster and faster. We will all be very proud in 50 years about all the long debates that we had. Billionaires can continue to write nice books about effective altruism and we can shoot hundreds of millions of refugees in the next decades. And let's not forget to challenge ideas and talking about reforming the system.
Agree!!!
Yeah just like katie Hobbs?...Fetterman's single live debate.....etc ....I agree, for certain levels office their should by law three live debates prior to voting with no aid or assistance of any kind
Shame only works if the person has any to begin with.
I agree, mainstream news isn't going to do this.
He destroyed him, with his own arguments. Nuff said.
Socrates would be proud
The problem with Jon Stewart is that there is not enough of him!
If more people had just an ounce of his logic, the world would be a better place.
If "shall not be infringed" meant what republicans claim it means, then you could not legally take guns away from prisoners. Nor could you stop plane passengers from carrying guns.
Yep. We already have rules and regulations around rights (voting only being for people of x age, and felons not being able to vote). They pretend like the second amendment is somehow holier.
to them it literally means "shall no be infringed" for white straight people but as we have seen with civil rights movement when the black panthers flexed their gun rights all of a sudden they started adding restrictions.
Regardless of what the constitution says, the courts and the police and the government take away guns from American people 7 days per week.
If "shall not be infringed" meant what republicans claim it means, then there would be no need for ANY firearms regulations and all guns would be free.
@@seanscanlon9067 Well we know republicans don't actually care about the constitution. If guns make us safer why are guns banned from every political rally for republicans?
Saddest part is this guy will go right back to his culture war even after getting drstroyed

And enumerated in the amendment itself, that these ammosexuals never read.

As is most of America.
Exactly what my comment was going to be.
I’m shocked UA-cam let’s us say hillbillies
Not doggin Jon but a rock could outsmart most of these "hillbillies".
That's insulting to hillbillies.
I wish more people were as good as Jon Stewart is at staying on topic and refusing to let the person being interviewed scamper away from any questions they want to avoid. Absolute master class.
Katie Porter is also really good. I highly recommended watching some of her videos.
I wish I was that good!! He should teach Masterclasses.
Jon’s best tactic is letting the other person think they’re scampering away only to find themselves stuck in a very deep pile of their own BS. He’s a master and he’s been doing it for years.
Bravo Jon Stewart!
Boom! 💯
I had to have a background check to volunteer in my children's elementary school. When we moved in the next school I had to be finger printed. To volunteer in an elementary school. A background check to purchase a firearm, that kills people, is just common sense.
Exactly 💯
Even your car needs to be registered
@@zengergazette9738 and to vote, which is a right!
Same here.✌️
Many of the alt. right would fail a background check, especially if it included a psychological assessment, because they are violent people, and should not be allowed to own guns because they have difficulty controlling themselves. Who carries out these mass shootings--it's almost exclusively Trump supporters and adherents to the alt. right. The only reason they may have no criminal record is the fact that white people often get off with a warning or a lesser charge in cases that would result in prison for a black person. They threaten to kill people if they say something they don't like, and they always have underlying violence in the way they act. The whole reason they vote and call themselves "political" although with no principles and no political platform or knowledge of politics or issues at all, is the opportunity to crush their enemies using the power of gov't, which they see as the entire reason to seek power. A simple questionnaire would reveal their violent tendencies instantly. If they failed they would deny they were violent, then threaten to kill the person doing the background check and the owner of the sporting goods store.
Can we please just make him a presidential candidate already?
Stewart is too smart to be president.
lol good one
That's exactly what I just said!
He would definitely not run for either of the two main parties so there would be like a 98.99% he wouldn’t be elected. I think he would 1000% shake things up though lol
just like Rachael Maddow. Course if one of them WOULD run, the right would demonize them, like they do to Bernie Sanders @@eyeseer1
The fact that Jon Stewart used to be on a show that aired right before crankyankers and yet has better, more pressing interviews than most of mainstream media says something. Jon is a national treasure.

@@citizenjamesford Yeah, that was Tucker Carlson on Crossfire in 2004. Jon obliterated Tucker and almost single-handedly ended that joke of a show...

Oh, and he ditched the bow tie finally too. That was his other claim to fame.
Holy cow Jon, tore his arguments apart. Well done doesn't begin to describe this absolute masterclass. A joy to watch.
Last I checked (and it's worse now) the U.S. had 138 times more gun deaths than Britain.
*That's a 13,800% increase.*
Even a complete fool would be alarmed by a 150% increase.
Love the way Jon is actually kind but firm in his beliefs. Backs it up with facts and logic. And refuses to go down rabbit holes of the Gish Gallop.
"Even rights have responsibilities"..........never truer a statement spoken.
I love Jon Stewart. He's smart and is bold enough to make his points clearly in the face of hypocrisy, ignorance, and the crazy lies.
Which lies?
what lie, I see him moving his goal post
I can't believe John Stewart is arguing for pro drag shows for children. The drag show in Dallas had a florescent sign on the stage which read "it ain't going to lick itself"!
@C.A.R. was that a kids drag show or just a drag show?
Only he gives misleading stats and heavily edits interviews to his benefit…..
He created the tightest argument possible and left literally no space for illogic whatsoever. This is debate 101 on how to destroy bad faith arguments with truth. He cut off every escape route perfectly. Not an easy thing to do but utterly impressive demonstration here by Jon.
yup
I hate that Jon has to be mad, but I love seeing Jon mad. I wish we didn’t have the problems that Jon and I are mad about.
I'm so glad Jon Stewart is back.
Jon Stewart is in a league of his own.... just on another level... He just neatly walks the Rep right into it... and the Rep doesn't realize it until he actually got there.. F-in brilliant..
He said he thinks that it’s the individual who is the problem and doesn’t realize that he just made an excellent case for requiring background checks.
The look on that guy's face was priceless. It's like he wanted the sofa to swallow him.

We should regulate the gun owner, NOT THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMs by registering the guns. Require gun owners to register THEIR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS, just as we require VOTERS TO REGISTER their RIGHT TO VOTE.
John Stewart and Katie Porter. I wish there were more real patriots like them in this country.
There is, Joe Biden, Eric Swalwell ,Sherrod Brown, Brian Cohen, Glen Kirschner, and on and on
I wish there were more like them in the UK too, great people 🤩
Katie Porter yes, Jon Stewart no. This is the same dude who defended Chris Cuomo when Chris got caught lying about having done quarantine when he had COVID. Stewart criticized Joe Biden's withdraw from Afghanistan because "it cut into the profits of the defense contractors, is that fair to them?"
I wish we had them in canada...
Ben shapiro would eat jon stewart for breakfast.
Knives kill more people than guns do every year - will lliberals argue to heavily regulate knives next?
Fantastic. Thank you Brian and Team and, THANK YOU JON!
Every single rep and senator should have to be grilled by Jon Stewart. He absolutely takes no bs from these people. Beautiful to watch, magic, just pure magic.
Excellent idea and I would volunteer my time to help make it happen :-)
If C-SPAN consisted solely of Stewart interviewing politicians and Katie Porter interviewing CEO's I'd never watch another channel for the rest of my life!
It’s so fucking liar joys and comedic
That’s pure fucking brilliance.
John Stewart is a national treasure and I sure wish I could shake his hand and give him a hug. Also huge shout out to Brian. He is doing outstanding work and I love him as well.
Jon even moreso.
Right on with each one of your points 👍
I used to love watching Jon Stewart on the Daily Show, and its comedic look at our political system. But damn, this guy really shines when he's being serious.
Hells yea!!! I am so glad to see Jon stewart delivering the ugly truth so brutal!! welcome back Jon!!! weve missed you!!
Geez even I got uncomfortable for the gov...that was straight brutal! Good job Jon!!
He handed him his smug ass. On camera.
I love Jon Stewart's brilliance in a debate.
Jon Stewart should run for office. I'd vote for him if he ran for President. The Congressman is a duffous!
If he does run, I hope it is for a Third Party and not the GOP Hillbillies nor the DEM incompetents
Yeah, there are a lot of well meant, smart and fit people in America, Jon Stewart would be great, hell MrBeast would be great when gets older and from opposite parties in politics i can mention Jen Psaki and Paul Ryan, how the hell you get to vote between an amnesic and the road to destruction?
He needs to run in 2028. The Democratic party is incapable or unwilling to put forward a single candidate that anyone likes, and have since 2015 campaigned at their hardest against the D candidate with the highest approval rating like their lives depended on it.
Good grief! When will the gun madness stop?🤬
When they have the balls to use that thing called an amendment. I love Jim Jeffries take on this when he's talking about some mass shooting in Australia that actually got good legislation passed over there. The land of convicts has more sense than the USA... /sigh
@@JarofMayonaise but you’re not moving there…
Jon Stewart has said many times how he has no interest in becoming a politician, but this country needs him desperately.
Agreed. He would make the entire planet a far safer place
We really do need him. His wit, tenacity, and leadership are invaluable.
The smartest ones never want to lead, they’re perfectly content minding their own business. And our world is heavily screwed up because of these decisions
It sucks that all the best political opinions in America come from the comedians that don’t wanna run. And the people who HATE cancel culture still cancelled the one that made it to the senate
@@Yes-gp1bt the unwilling heroes make the best leaders. I hope he steps up.
This needs to be publicly broadcast daily.
Help those who don’t know or don’t want to understand, UNDERSTAND!!!!
But, they DON’T WANT to understand. That’s the key.
"NOT KNOWING WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT" SEEMS TO BE A BIG ISSUE FOR THE GOP.
apparently, it's a core operating principle.
Honestly, I think that’s being too kind. They know exactly how false and misleading they’re being.
This way of thinking turns them into good but just dumb people where I think the opposite is true. They know full well what they are doing and talking about, he is lobbying for the gun industry and lining his pockets 😉
@@GusselSprout Exactly this, they are bought and paid for by the gun lobby.
It’s called being disingenuous. They are fully aware, they just have ZERO shame in misleading their voting base to believing the bullshit lies and logical fallacies they push to forward their narrative.
I love the way Stewart so adroitly points out the difference between facts and opinion. 💪
The one mistake that Steward made is not defining what facts are. They have no clue.
Jon Stewart is a gifted logician. Hope he engages further.
Jon can literally destroy any GOP Shithead that dares to debate him
We need him, we need the logic of his understanding the republican’s hypocritical illogical rationale to be laid bare for everyone in the way he does make it that a preschool child could understand
John Stewart for President
Shame the best reporter in the USA isn't a reporter. The lamestream news outlets should take notes.
Bingo. Something that should be taught and elicited from our journalists pronto. Most are cowed and/or awed by the personality they are interviewing and lose their focus, clear thinking and reasoning, allowing the one being interviewed to shape the narrative to their advantage. And they wind up seeming more of a collaborator than a journalist.
