Jon Stewart Blasts ‘Trump Cancel Culture’ and GOP Hypocrisy

“Jerry Seinfeld took more shit over the past two weeks promoting a Pop-Tart movie than Harrison Butker did for his entire speech,” Stewart said on Monday’s “Daily Show.”

Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker has stirred up controversy after a right-wing rant during a commencement speech earlier this month where he complained about abortion rights, “degenerate cultural values” and encouraged the female graduates to focus on getting married and having kids. “Not the advice you want to hear when you’re $100,000 in debt, earning a degree in electrical engineering,” Jon Stewart quipped in his opening monologue, before musing, “But I imagine that the cancellation of one Harrison Butker was swift and unforgiving at the White House.” He can still go to the White House and be on his football team, and all that’s really happened is some people roasted him on TikTok?” He showed viewers a montage of aggressive Fox News coverage, depicting Butker as a tragic victim of hysterical liberal outrage.
