Jon Stewart Addresses Trump’s Election Win: “This Isn’t Forever”

As a gamer who has seen more political campaigns than I’ve cleared levels in my favorite strategy games, Jon Stewart‘s return to The Daily Show was like finding that rare, game-changing item you thought you’d never find again. His monologue was a masterclass in dissecting the chaos of modern politics with razor-sharp wit and insight.


In his return to “The Daily Show” following Donald Trump’s election, Jon Stewart delved into an extensive analysis of the presidential campaign.

Stewart humorously pointed out on Monday that it seems more individuals voted for Donald Trump than actually won the election, making it quite an intricate scheme.

During his 15-minute speech, Stewart showcased numerous video clips of Democratic analysts and strategists discussing Trump’s victory. “It’s amusing to listen to explanations for why it occurred from so many individuals who were mistaken about the outcome,” he quipped humorously.

Later on, Stewart discussed theories suggesting that Democratic campaigns are overly focused on being progressive or ‘woke’, presenting snippets from this week’s news broadcasts claiming that the left often prioritizes politically correct gestures over winning elections effectively.

As a supporter, I’d like to express my viewpoint: “The only issue I find with the ‘woke’ ideology is that, in my memory, none of the Democratic candidates seemed to be campaigning on ‘woke’ issues.

The scene shifted to a series of campaign commercials from centrist Democratic candidates, highlighting their support for law enforcement, opposition to illegal immigration, and criticism of transgender health care policies.

As a gamer speaking, “Also, let’s not overlook Kamala Harris. She wasn’t flaunting her NPR bag or anything like that, but you might want to remember her words when she said, ‘I have a Glock.’

For the past four months, they’ve been behaving like typical Republicans,” Stewart complained. “They donned camouflage caps and attended Cheney family gatherings. Did you know it can be risky to sport a hunting cap near a Cheney?

He went on to say, “Democrats primarily faced opposition based on an image constructed for them within a few months following George Floyd, with references to ‘defund the police’ posts from four years prior on Instagram. This situation led people to believe that the government wasn’t serving their interests, and that Democrats were unfairly redistributing their hard-earned money to those perceived as less deserving. As a result, Democrats adopted a more relaxed approach.

Stewart remarked, ‘It’s satisfying to note that Democrats defended our democracy – even if it was for the opposition.’

After finishing his speech, he offered a comforting statement: “I believe an in-depth analysis of improved policies is highly beneficial. However, I’d like to emphasize that this isn’t a permanent situation.” The comedian then transitioned by displaying a map, showing the electoral college results from the 1984 presidential election when Ronald Reagan was re-elected. Only Minnesota did not vote for the Republican Party in that election.

Stewart commented that it seemed like the end of the Democratic Party, but lo and behold, eight years passed and another Democrat took up office again.

On the evening of the election, Stewart served as the host of the program, which aired live as voting results were announced. The broadcast concluded prior to Trump’s victory being formally declared, and Stewart addressed his viewers, saying, “This is not the final chapter.

He assured us, ‘This isn’t over yet.’ We need to reorganize, persevere, and keep striving tirelessly to build a superior future for our kids, for the globe, for our nation – a future we truly believe in. Yes, it can be achieved.

Stewart, who originally hosted the Comedy Central show from 1998 to 2015, returned to The Daily Show in February, signing on as host every Monday through the presidential election. Last month, on the heels of a sharp spike in ratings, the comedian extended his bid as host through 2025. He will also stay on as an executive producer.

On Monday evening’s broadcast, Stewart began by discussing the topic of the extension, adopting a serious and measured tone he referred to as “The Resistance.” He assured the audience, “For the rest of the next four years, I will only speak to you in this manner, standing so close to the camera. I will be unyielding – or perhaps it will be them who are relentless. I’m here on Mondays, not too frequently. There are dark weeks and holidays. It amounts to approximately 15 hours of resistance in total.
