Tonight felt the closest to classic Bush era Daily Show in a while

The jokes hit in a pretty heavy way, I think. The Jon segment of counting back the years of progress in the country and emphasizing how fucked up it is that Trump wants to go all the way back to essentially pure monarchy. It underlines his dictatorial impulses in a pretty clever way.

All that is to say that I hope Jon continues in this vein and at least doesn’t start slacking here in the next few weeks. Shit is about to get very real, and I would like to see him cover Trump ignoring judges next week. It is probably the most important topic right now.
