Jon Stewart was epic last night on Colbert. It sure is different when it's your inexperienced, thin skinned, narcissistic candidate for the fair unbiased news reporters 
But about 2:40 in of Stephen's opening monologue had me in stitches

David Duke has made it official and crediting Trump with inspiring him to run for office. We really are living in an Onion article.

I’m sure they considered it. But there’s a popular misconception that the constitution bars felons from being president (this was actually taught as a fact when I was in school), and it would be a big distraction from Duke’s KKK past qualifying him for the ticket.

No worries on Kaine's replacement. Terry McAuliffe (va's governor) picks the person that fills the seat.

I have met Tim Kaine on several occasions. He's good people. He's a Virginia boy!
He plays harmonica...

Better to leave people like Bernie and Warren in positions where they can actually do something useful and help move the party to the left. Picking a liberal democrat for the veep slot just neutralizes that person politically, which doesn’t do Bernie’s supporters any favors.

New DNC email leak reveals anti-Sanders bias, pro-Clinton collusion among top officials
Well, this is an awkward thing to happen right before the convention. Is it any wonder that Bernie supporters aren't lining up to vote Clinton?

More obvious than awkward. Of course there was anti-Sanders bias in the DNC. Bernie quit the party and spent years shitting all over them. Then he ran for the POTUS nomination on the DNC’s ticket and spent more time shitting all over them. Who would expect that to engender a kind reaction?

I never understood the Liz Warren for VP thing. Didn't she say, a year or two ago shat she wasn't interested in running for president? Before Bernie got in, she was kinda my dream candidate. If she doesn't want to be Prez, why would she want to be VP?

Bernie didn't join the party until 2015. He was the longest serving Independent in congressional history. He alway caucused with them, but was never in the party.

Yeah, the media is all freaking over Bernie supporters not going to Clinton because of Kaine. But the reality is very few of them will support Trump, Johnson, or Stein. Clinton needs a centrist who knows the system and will push her agenda in Congress. Kaine, while the boring choice, was the right one.
I'm still not voting for her.
