Jon Stewart Criticizes Donald Trump’s Jan. 6 Response During Presidential Debate, Praises Kamala Harris’ Abortion Comments: ‘She Crushed That’

As a long-time fan of Jon Stewart and his sharp wit, it was truly a delight to witness him back on “The Daily Show” last night. His ability to dissect political events with humor and insight is unparalleled, and his reaction to the Harris-Trump debate was no exception.


Jon Stewart made an appearance live on “The Daily Show” last Tuesday, during which he expressed his thoughts following the presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and ex-President Donald Trump.

The program contrasted the reactions of both Trump and Harris on the topic of abortion, with Trump remarking “we achieved what everyone desired” following the repeal of Roe v. Wade.

Harris stated: “I’ve conversed with women across our nation. If we’re going to discuss this topic, it’s what people are interested in knowing? Women who wish to bring their pregnancies to full term, experiencing a miscarriage, being refused care in an emergency room due to healthcare providers fearing potential legal consequences – and she ends up bleeding out in a car park. That’s not something she desired.

Wow, she really nailed it with her remarks on the abortion issue,” Stewart expressed in response.

It’s reminiscent of a ‘Groundhog Day’ scenario, where I get a chance to correct past mistakes and make them right this time. Plus, I’m learning Italian and the piano along the way, but there are ups and downs; I find myself feeling sad and despondent at times, only to eventually learn how to love and appreciate myself more.

Later on, the host of “The Daily Show” playfully ridiculed Donald Trump’s misleading statements regarding immigrants feeding on pets in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump stated during the debate, “They are consuming the dogs. The ones who entered [the area] are also eating the cats. They’re even devouring the household pets of those who reside there.

After having visited Springfield myself, I think I have a good understanding of the situation here,” Stewart expressed. “It seems to me that Donald Trump might just be turning into one of Springfield’s most renowned inhabitants.” The scene then transitioned to a clip featuring Abe, more commonly known as Grampa Simpson, from “The Simpsons.

On a more serious note, Stewart criticized Trump’s response to the Jan. 6 insurrection.

For two months, you stirred up your supporters with claims that our nation was unjustly taken from them through underhanded tactics, allegations which couldn’t be proven in court, and then exploited their trust. Despite this, you persisted. You misused their faith, using social media platforms like Twitter to say, ‘Meet me on Jan. 6, it will be exciting.'” (Stewart)
