Summary
Elon Musk has tentatively agreed to appear on “The Daily Show” for an unedited interview with Jon Stewart, who recently criticized DOGE’s federal workforce cuts so passionately he injured his hand during a segment.
Stewart condemned Musk’s approach to government efficiency, arguing against indiscriminate firing of federal employees.
The show officially accepted Musk’s condition for an unedited appearance.
Despite controversy over Musk’s recent email demanding employees justify their jobs, Trump reaffirmed support for Musk at his first Cabinet meeting.
I’m really surprised the left hasn’t started to attack Jon Stewart for something yet. It’s coming. I guarantee it.
On what grounds would that happen?
Republican fake accounts start spreading clips of Stewart being friendly to Musk and then a bunch of others write comments like “I never liked him” and “traitors gonna traitor” and eventually the rest just pick it up for content. There’s lots of ways this goes down. It’s gone often. The fact you can’t see it coming is why it keeps happening
well he has been the subject of criticism from leftists. the daily show’s schtick for over two decades is pointing out hypocrisy in conservative politics, which is completely ineffective because you cannot shame a conservative politician into doing anything. also, many of jons arguments and comedy come from an incredibly centered political stance, which also wins him no favor from the left.
