I was going through my YT feed, and I came across this long video about the Tucker/Stewart beef. It is over an hour, but I think it really puts John Stewart Leibowitz into proper context.

I had never seen those Crossfire clips before, so watching Leibowitz lecture Tucker on his moral failings was all new. I don't know how Tucker put up with his moralizing ass, I would have tossed him out almost instantly. I couldn't stand Colbert or Leibowitz back then because of how blatantly one sided and disingenuous they were, but I can see what Leibowitz is doing a lot more clearly now. It isn't about politics, it is about moral lecturing, and he cloaks it in comedy.
He was (mostly) right in the Crossfire interview. A phony divide between Democrats and Republicans helps only Democrats and Republicans. That said, he was also a hypocrite, because while he criticized Tucker and that other guy for this, he does it himself - and then he hides behind "I'm just a comedian".
What has Trump or the Republicans done to earn your enthusiasm? They are just as liberal as any Democrat.
Your post is a tale of two sentences.
Valid question. Republicans are mostly cucked bitches that will fold on their supposed principles for money. Trump has shown that while he can be better than most, he is far from perfect.
Uhhhh. You'd have a hard time arguing that Trump is just as liberal as AOC or [insert whacky far left Democrat here]. While i agree we need someone much more hardline and illiberal than Trump, statements like this that remove any and all nuance are not helpful.
