23. Jon Stewart is a strong voice for democracy. I don't agree with him on every issue (99.1%) but he speaks the truth.

I'm glad he is on our side and not actively supporting the GQP agenda. He is getting unnecessary bad vibes because he compared Biden and Trump (otherism).

He will be on Biden's side until election day when push comes to shove. As the time nears to vote, I think his support will be seen and welcomed and make a difference in the final tallies.

If the truth were known, some of us would have liked to see a younger candidate with Biden's long-term political experience and savvy. But in a choice between Biden and tfg, any sane non-cultist will vote for Biden.

Nothing, no slip of the tongue, no pausing to get the right word out, no slow walking or other occasional 'gaffe' will make me see tfg as even being in the same league with Biden.

Trump is a clear and present danger to all Americans.

Biden can continue to lead this country in the right direction for all Americans.
