Stewart also weighed in on the changing media landscape and his Apple TV exit before returning to host, on Monday nights, the Comedy Central late night show.
The most important qualification a leader can have is the trust of the population.
Everything else is what advisors are for, and despite what you want to believe Stewart has seen how the kosher sausage is made, when he bullied Congress into taking care of the 9/11 first responders.
There are many, many worse candidates out there, and quite frankly not many better.
Is that a sad state of affairs?
Sure. But it’s also reality.
And, just fyi, Trump wasn’t a bad candidate because he was a TV celebrity.
He was a bad candidate because he’s an idiotic fascist.
Great but it takes a lot more than that to be a GOOD president.
You need to be more than just popular. I know it’s a common mistake to think celebrities will make good presidents because they have charisma.
That is how we ended up with Trump.
Have higher standards.

Nope. Not at all. Again this is how we get people like Trump as president.
And yet half the population trusts the moron so we’re gonna agree to disagree.
That’s why I didn’t even mention “popular”, and listed a bunch of other traits besides charisma.
Comparing Stewart with Trump is lazy and simplistic, do better.
