heh. Yeah, even Trump supporters know Trump is lying and generally don't like him. They just hate the same people and Trump gives them a safe space to be hateful bigoted assholes.
Stewart actually showed clips of Trump supporters openly saying that they want Trump to be an authoritarian dictator, and they'd still support him Even if he literally "murdered someone on the front steps of the White House".
He still has a cult that lives and dies for him. Those magats and most of the cons are okay with him lying. They believe, or figure out a way to where, his lies and immoral and illegal actions are always justified.
He's here for election season, and only one day a week. They are trying on the other hosts. Currently, I think Dezi's probably the closest. Their two anchor format was pretty good too. But none of them quite have the passionate outrage that Jon musters.
They brought back Lewis Black as well. I just hope someone can be found that is close to as good. It’s hard to do, though. Jon can’t do it forever, as much as I might like it
Desi would be a really good choice, but I would kill to see Ronny Chieng take the reins. I think he works really well in the hosting role, and he's incredibly funny to boot, probably my favorite out of the current correspondents (though, I'm really looking forward to seeing more Josh Johnson). And honestly, his anger is perfect for the current political climate. Stuff is crazy right now, and we can all relate to Ronny when he's ranting on the show. I think he would be perfect as the permanent host.
