Jon Stewart Burns Trump Over 1 Truly Curious Inauguration Moment
HuffPost
The "Daily Show" host spotted an unexpected break from inaugural tradition.
“Daily Show” host Jon Stewart called out Democratic figures for warning that President Donald Trump would be a fascist dictator, then taking part in all of the typical inauguration customs anyway, such as President Joe Biden welcoming him to the White House for a traditional tea.
“It’s always important to keep up the tea tradition when you hand over the keys to ― I’m sorry, what did you call him? ― Hitler!” Stewart said. “I’m not saying Biden should’ve done his own insurrection, but there’s gotta be a happy medium between storming the Capitol and ‘would you like a crumpet?’”
Stewart praised one prominent Democratic figure for dodging the ceremony.
“Only Michelle Obama seemed to have the consistent ethical stance of saying, ‘When they go low, I stay the fuck home,’” Stewart said.
Stewart also spotted one curious detail during the actual moment Trump was sworn in: He didn’t place his hand on either of the two Bibles held in front him as he repeated the oath of office.
