And Jon Stewart, Stephen King, and now George Stephanopoulos too. I’ve muted them, per Jeff’s suggestion

I stopped waatching Jon when he came back and immediately spouted ageist shit about Bien.

ME TOO! I was so anxious for his opening night...and all he could do was bash Biden?? He admitted later than he should not have done that, but...he ruined it for me.

Seems when you make millions off peddling your opinions,you think they matter more than anyone else's,not for me. George Clooney thinks you should buy his tequila because he's an actor, Gwnyth Paltrow thinks you should buy a candle that smells like her vagina because she's an actor...yep...piss off.

It was the compulsive both-sides-ism that killed Jon for me.

It's like that dripping faucet: once you notice it, it drives you nuts until you turn it off.

I'm really disappointed in him. I think some Biden videos he had on Monday's show had been altered.

I am disappointed that all of these various television personalities who I know want the best for U.S. Democratic party are coming to this very late - it could have been much different had they put forth a candidate with strong credentials many months ago.

My disappointment meter is high with some of these Dems that I used to like and liked their shows. What's up with them? If Biden was drooling with a diaper on, thought he was on the planet Mars, he'd still be a better candidate than Trump. My biggest annoyance with them (besides their disloyalty) is that they have NO SOLUTION. If this was summer of 2023, you felt Biden was too old, you'd be able to come up with a viable plan to run another candidate for 2024. You now have 118 days till the election to come up with a candidate that can win, raise tons of money because you won't have access to the money raised now if Biden/Harris are not the candidates, repair the huge fracture that will happen in the party and get enough votes to get the nomination plus start campaigning. Really? I don't know much about politics, but you just can't do that. Well, you can and you will totally lose. I think it's just plain stupidity on their part to even suggest this. They will lose their credibility with their audience and will forever hear (if Biden wins) you're a moron for even thinking that, much less saying it.

Ageism is one of the last bastions of bigotry.

And not long ago, ex-funny-person Bill Maher was scolding about ageism, this- from a guy who has profited from "old guy" jokes for years.

Maher.

Another smug fuck who has gotten rich, near-sighted and turned into a right-wing sphincter.

There is a verse in an old book that goes, "Physician, heal thyself."

And Stephen Colbert needs to cut the crap. His monologues are laden with “jokes” about Biden’s age. Same with Kimmel. These comedians need to stop.

America needs to STOP with the ageism.

Trump and Biden would have been in high school at the same time. Ridiculous to comment on one's age and not the other's. This was just started by the MAGAs to deflect about Trump's age and how stupid he sounds.

Agreed. Why keep making jokes about Biden’s age while ignoring the numerous character flaws & disgraceful and dangerous behavior of the repugnant one…Do they not realize they could do more for the cause with some positive “jokes” about Biden, while skewering the dumpster file? WTF?

And now George Clooney, who has a “castle” in Italy and can safely ride out a Trump presidency
