Jon Stewart’s “quick message” to election pollsters was an expletive-laden, scream-filled rant that coincided with the results of President Trump successful reelection on Tuesday.
“I don’t ever wanna f— hear from you again. Ever. I don’t ever wanna hear ‘We’ve corrected for the over-correction.’ You don’t know s— about s—. And I don’t care for you,” the agitated host mentioned through the dwell election-night particular as outcomes got here in.
“Here’s what we know: It’s that we don’t really know anything,” Stewart declared. “We’re going to come out of this election and we’re going to make all kinds of pronouncements about what this country is and what this world is. And the truth is, we’re not really gonna know s—. And we’re going to make it seem like this is the finality of our civilization. We’re all going to have to wake up tomorrow morning and work like hell to move the world to the place that we prefer it to be.”
Stewart reiterated that the teachings that pundits take away from these outcomes and the pronouncements they make with certainty “will be wrong.”
Stewart mentioned that “winning message” finally led to the Jan. 6 revolt, and the lesson from that — because the pundits framed it on the time — was Trump can be departing the White Home as a “pariah” and by no means be allowed to step foot within the Capitol once more. Additionally fallacious.
“My point is this,” Stewart mentioned, launching right into a bleeped outcry. “But this isn’t the end. I promise you. This is not the end. And we have to regroup and we have to continue to fight and continue to work day in and day out to create the better society for our children, for this world, for this country that we know is possible. It’s possible.”
The 15-time Emmy Award winner wasn’t the one TV character who was shocked on dwell tv Tuesday evening. CNN’s Jake Tapper went viral when he uttered “holy smokes” in response to an election map that was exhibiting Trump’s opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, not “over-performing” Biden on John King’s digital map.
“Literally nothing?” the CNN anchor mentioned in disbelief through the dwell broadcast when the Magic Wall confirmed a grayed out map. “Literally not one county?”
King, CNN’s nationwide correspondent, had pressed the fallacious button and clarified that the map was exhibiting states. He then toggled to a different map that confirmed a couple of counties the place Harris outperformed Biden by 3% or extra.
“There might be more out here in the West Coast,” King added. “It’s possible one or two more as they finish the count here. But in the states that matter … in one county in battleground Pennsylvania, she’s outperforming President Biden by 3% or more.”
