Liberal comedian Jon Stewart used his weekly Monday night episode of “The Daily Show” to launch an attack on former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, going so far as to call him an “ad.”
Stewart criticizes Carlson
One week after angering liberals by attacking their beloved President Joe Biden, Stewart desperately tried to win them back by targeting Carlson in his recent interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Stewart began his monologue by slamming Carlson's face as he sat down with Putin for the two-hour interview.
“It's not really a straight face so much as you're trying to convey a mixture of what appears to be shyness, excitement and I'll say awkwardness,” Stewart said. “For example, like if you were constipated while masturbating to a Sears catalog.”
Stewart then played a video in which Carlson praised the cleanliness of train stations in Russia before criticizing homeless Americans while touring a department store.
“I know I've said this before: You're my ad***,” Stewart responded. “Really, really, like the ad***.”
Another clip showed Carlson saying he was “radicalized” against American leaders after seeing the prices available to Russian shoppers compared to prices in the United States.
“extremist!” Stewart repeated. This will drive you to extremes – unless you understand basic economics. Look, $104 worth of groceries sounds like a great deal unless you realize that Russians make less than $200 a week. But here's the truth. You know all this because you are not as stupid as your face wants us to believe.
“The question is why would Tucker do this,” Stewart continued. “That's because the ancient battle of civilization was between capitalism and communism… but now they think it's a battle between woke versus non-woke. And in that fight, Putin is an ally of the right. He's their friend. Unfortunately, he's also a brutal and ruthless dictator. So they have to make… “Americans feel more comfortable with that.”

Stewart dares to criticize Biden
It came one week after Stewart angered liberals by using his return to “The Daily Show” to attack Biden. He dared to point out that Special Counsel Robert Hoare's report cited Biden's “diminished abilities and faulty memory,” adding: “If indicted, the gentleman would likely present himself to the jury as he did during his interview with our office, as a sympathizer.” A well-meaning old man with a weak memory.”
“This guy couldn't remember things during his testimony,” Stewart said in response. “Do you understand what we mean? He had no ability to remember very basic things under interrogation. The footage of the president unable to remember simple facts must have been tough to watch.

Liberals are losing their minds
This was enough to excite liberals everywhere.
“Well, after nine years away, there's nothing else to say to crook Jon Stewart attacking Biden, except: Please make it nine more years,” Keith Olbermann Written on Xthe social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
“Great. So you're basically saying, because Biden is old, he's basically as bad as Trump. Why R [sic] Do we as a country never learn? “Sorry, but I won't be watching you either.” He added Tennessee Elections Commissioner Chris D. Jackson.
Stewart appears to be desperately trying to win back his liberal fans by targeting Carlson, someone the left loves to hate almost as much as they hate Donald Trump. What do you think of his criticism of Carlson? Let us know in the comments section.
