The Daily Show Jon Stewart on his Election Night special episode argued that the outcome of the election doesn’t determine everything.
“Here’s what we know, is that we don’t really know anything, and that we’re going to come out of this election and we’re going to make all kind of pronouncements about what this country is and what this world is, and the truth is, we’re not really going to know s—,” Stewart argued.
Vice President Harris and former President Trump are facing off in the presidential election Tuesday evening and ballots are still being counted early Wednesday.
Stewart argued that if Trump wins, it will seem like the “finality of our civilization,” but in reality, Americans will “wake up tomorrow” and have to “work like hell to move the world to the place that we prefer it to be.”
Stewart showed clips from former President Obama’s 2008 race and more recent presidential cycles.
“My point is, this, ——,” Stweart said, with curse words bleeped out.
“But, this isn’t the end. I promise you. This is not the end, and we have to regroup and we have to continue to fight and continue to work day in and day out to create the better society for our children, for this world, for this country that we saw was possible,” he said.
