Jon Stewart, appearing on The Late Show, on this moment in American life:
“In some respects, I wonder if the pandemic, because we all went into kind of a stasis, and the distractions of your daily life were removed, that it allowed the country a moment of clarity. It’s almost like in this moment of more quiet reflection, America suddenly stopped and smelled the racism, do you know what I mean?"
On Joe Biden:
“What I think in this moment this country needs is a leader of humility, that understands that he doesn't understand, that understands the humanity of this experiment and the difficulty that it is in maintaining it, and that we have to connect with each other on a much deeper level without the bullshit. And it gives me hope that that can bring about—that maybe he is the man of the moment.”
