Jon Stewart didn’t explicitly call on President Joe Biden to step down as the Democratic Party nominee for president on Monday’s “The Daily Show.” But explaining how gravely disturbed he was by the president’s recent debate performance, he argued that it’s entirely appropriate to “stress test” his candidacy to prove Biden is still capable of running.
“There are no participation trophies in end game democracy,” Stewart declared.
The topic, obviously, was the ongoing discussion of Biden, who has faced calls to step down after his disastrous performance in the June 27 debate against Donald Trump. Biden insists it was a bad night caused by external factors and not related to his age or any decline, and he is so far adamant that he will not drop out of the race.
