Our Democracy was on the line. It was on the line. And he both sided shit.
Don't he and Mehdi have some more white supremacists to platform and lift up? They will never talk to or about Us.
You can say it, he cant hear us, he added.
I know you know how fing old he is, and I know you dont want to say it because [Donald] Trump is so scary, but hes so fing old, Stewart continued.
When you watch him on television, youre nervous, arent ya?
Stewart pointed out: Im not saying that Biden cant contribute to society, he just shouldnt be president.

Hur, explaining his decision not to recommend charges over Bidens retention of classified documents while out of office, wrote last week that, if indicted, Biden could present himself to the jury as a well meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.
Stewart riffed on that on "The Daily Show."
Where did I park those documents? he said, imitating an elderly man.
Later, Stewart said, Biden was not about to take the special counsels characterizations laying down -- although chances are he was laying down."
