‘F**king Pathetic’: Jon Stewart Trashes Trump And MAGA Over Saddest Meltdown Yet

“Daily Show” host Jon Stewart on Monday had one biting question for President Donald Trump and his supporters in the MAGA-centric right-wing media circuit. “When did the right become such fucking pussies?” he asked. Stewart showed clips of the latest meltdowns over everything from Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance ― which had them so triggered that they needed their own conservative halftime show ― to their anger over Olympians who’ve spoken out against Trump and his policies, with many on the right demanding that they be sent home. “Remember 2017?” he asked. “Remember what you hated about liberals?” He showed a graphic from Fox News at the time explaining the supposed “signs of snowflakery,” including being “perpetually offended,” in need of “safe spaces,” attempting to “shut down speech,” and embracing a “culture of victimhood.” “Remind you of anyone?” he asked. Then he switched his voice to a whine to mock conservatives. “Oh, I can’t go 15 minutes without listening to country music. I need a separate show,” he moaned. “Oh, that skier triggered me. I can’t sleep.” He added a blunt message for Trump and his supporters: “It’s actually fucking pathetic, the gap between the power you all wield... and the victimhood you all claim is the real offense. If you didn’t actually have the power to do so much damage in our country, I think we’d all dismiss it as a weak and pathetic pity party. That’s what you’re throwing.” Check out his full takedown in the Monday night “Daily Show” monologue: By entering your email and clicking Sign Up, you're agreeing to let us send you customized marketing messages about us and our advertising partners.
