Of course he did, he was never serious about doing an interview as Jon would absolutely bury him alive
They should have Mike Myers go on as Elon and do a mock interview.
Airing 45 minutes of them trying to get ahold of Elon would have been great. 🤣
Musk demands unedited interviews but can’t handle unfiltered criticism—irony at its finest.
😺😺😺😺
Stewart’s reply was that all their interviews like this are unedited lol
like so many others…
called it!
Every one of these people in Trump’s cabinet is a pussy.
fElon isn’t in his cabinet. That’s kinda one of the many Constitutional Crises that are playing out in real time.
Brave Sir Elon ran away. Bravely ran away away. When danger reared it’s ugly head, He bravely turned his tail and fled. Yes, brave Sir Elon turned about And gallantly he chickened out. Swiftly taking to his feet, He beat a very brave retreat. Bravest of the brave, Sir Elon!
Elon is a punk ass bitch.
Musk probably watched Stewart’s conservative show interview appearances over on YouTube, dating back to his first stint on the daily show. They couldn’t trip Stewart. He rolled over all of them. The interviews stopped, again, surprising no one.
Jon Stewart single-handedly got CNN’s “Crossfire” ( featuring a not-yet-fully-crazy Tucker Carlson) cancelled just by going on the show and doing his thing.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Stewart's_2004_appearance_on_Crossfire
In the final exchange before a commercial break, Carlson remarked that he thought Stewart was “more fun on your show, just my opinion.” Stewart responded, “You know what’s interesting, though? You’re as big a dick on your show as you are on any show.”
(Shit, that was over 20 years ago. I’m old …)
Carlson never recovered from that bowtie burn
Jon Stewart: “How old are you?”
Tucker Carlson: “35.”
Jon Stewart: “And you wear a bow tie.”
“Look, I’m not suggesting you aren’t a smart guy, because those things are not easy to tie. But the thing is, you’re doing theatre, when you should be doing debate. It’s not honest… what you do is partisan hackery.”
And so savage was the mockery that he never wore a bowtie again.
Seriously, he ruined that dude’s trademark fashion statement. Lol. Tucker is a snowflake confirmed.
That was Carlsons “rejected from art school” moment.
What do you think Krasnov’s “rejected from Art School” moment was?
That white house correspondent’s dinner where Obama joked at his expense.
Bro, around 10:50 Jon made a statement he would later regret:
“In terms of the absurdity of this group, they’re going to be hard to top.”
Regarding the Bush administration.
There is a direct line between GWB and Trump. The lies of the Bush administration and it’s denigration of the “reality-based community” laid the groundwork for Donald Trump’s Big Lies. if Al Gore won in 2000, I doubt we would have Trump today. Ron Suskind wrote all about it in the NYT back then. This article about the article is not behind their paywall:
https://theweek.com/articles/854892/what-karl-rove-right-about-realitybased-community
The aide said that guys like me [Suskind] were “in what we call the reality-based community,” which he defined as people who “believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.” I nodded and murmured something about enlightenment principles and empiricism. He cut me off. “That’s not the way the world really works anymore,” he continued. “We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”
Surprising nobody.
What a shock. Jon wouldn’t hold back punches, and Musk knows that. Musk only goes on Podcasts where the host’s opinions change depending on the guest.
For me the weirdest moment was when Joe Rogan - before the election - said that Musk “saved us”. Not “is going to save us”, already saved us.
Drumpf also alluded to “he’s got the best coders, it’s just one line of code,” fElon will hand us the win! Before the election.
fElon also said before the election, “If he [Drumpf] doesn’t win, I’m probably going to prison,” [sic] alongside President Elect Drumpf
During the 2000 election, the Diebold electronic voting machines used in many states stored results in an Access database. Kids today wouldn’t understand how disastrously insecure that was (Access DBs had an audit table that was manually editable). I have zero doubt that newer machines have similar “flaws” baked in (even if they didn’t use Starlink as was reported briefly), making the results absurdly easy to rig.
What else would a coward do?
He couldn’t even follow through on his fight with clothing store mannequin Mark Fuckerberg.
Even though he’s just 5’7" and 155 lbs, I don’t think I’d want to take Zuckerberg on.
I’ve got half a foot and a hundred pounds on him, I would jump at the opportunity.
And nobody is surprised even slightly.
