Biden Is ‘Becoming Trumpian,’ Says Jon Stewart on ‘Weekly Show’ Podcast: His Refusal to Discuss Stepping Down ‘Has Degraded People’s Trust’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Jon Stewart compares Joe Biden to Donald Trump, saying the president's refusal to discuss stepping down has 'degraded people's trust' in government.

In Thursday’s episode of his “Weekly Show” podcast, he compares Biden to Donald Trump, which features “ Pod Save America ” hosts Jon Favreau and Tommy Vietor and CNN political commentator Bakari Sellers. The Biden-Harris campaign recently sent out an email blasting “self-important podcasters” for their critiques of Biden, which many interpreted as a dig against Favreau, Vietor and their “Pod Save America” co-hosts Dan Pfeiffer and Jon Lovett, who are all also former staffers of the Obama-Biden administration. George Clooney hosted the L.A. fundraiser, and as Favreau points out on the podcast, the actor has since pulled back on his support of Biden, writing a New York Times article about the Democratic party needing a new nominee.
