      Yea… This is just Jon Steward level snark that makes us chuckle and feel like we’re doing something, when in reality we’re doing jack shit.

      Democrats need to be organizing and running from the local level up and let go of these clever quips. They do nothing except placate people.

      I honestly believe Jon coming back did more harm than good. He’s giving leftist an outlet so they don’t actually do anything with their anger.

      All these comedians are just letting us vent our energy, meaning it’s not used to organise and run for something.

      You can’t tell people the country is going under, while also cracking jokes.
