    And immediately got shit on by moderates who insult anyone who questions Biden…

    Neoliberals just want to be republicans without the social stigma. It’s why the Clinton’s showed up to one of trump’s weddings. They both may have hated the guy, but he gave money.

    Thinking he was the only “moderate” Dem making donations like that to pull Dems to the right is just naive. Lots of them are still out there doing the same shit. Giving millions to PACs to stop the party from charging them taxes.

      Literally the next day after his first episode I started seeing memes criticizing the “they’re both old” claim, as though it isn’t a valid critique.

        Cause he spent 20 minutes on the same joke, after every news media spent the entire fucking weekend prior obsessing over it.

        it was tired, older, and more worn out than Biden by 9am on Saturday. Much less Monday at 11pm.

        Also the delivery was meh and it and rehashing the same “LOL OLD” joke got boring quickly. Jon can do better, and he did with todays episode compared to last weeks… Though I’d argue that its still not nearly what it would have been back in his prime.
