Summary

Elon Musk has tentatively agreed to appear on “The Daily Show” for an unedited interview with Jon Stewart, who recently criticized DOGE’s federal workforce cuts so passionately he injured his hand during a segment.

Stewart condemned Musk’s approach to government efficiency, arguing against indiscriminate firing of federal employees.

The show officially accepted Musk’s condition for an unedited appearance.

Despite controversy over Musk’s recent email demanding employees justify their jobs, Trump reaffirmed support for Musk at his first Cabinet meeting.

    I know all there is to know about Stewart, and I’m 99% certain he won’t go easy with Musk. All I’m saying is, if it ever dares do that, I and all the folks who know him will hate his guts.

      He will go easy, he won’t go at him like people want him to. He’s interviewing Musk and there will be a level of decorum and respect because that’s what adults do. But the left are such rabid idealists that they won’t accept that. But most importantly the right leaning groups will help nudge it along as they always do with fake accounts and memes pretending to be left leaning.

          No, he won’t. He’ll have a conversation, keep it entertaining, but there’s no chance he makes him look like an ass. Then, the next day, you and others will be here tearing Stewart apart for the rest of the year. Eventually, he’ll say, “Fuck this,” and shift his political views after realizing just how toxic and ineffective the left is, how quick they are to turn on their own, just like so many before him have.

          The left has the energy of a narcissistic ex-girlfriend, full of hopes and dreams, but the moment you show even the slightest rejection of their principles, they unleash the most savage, vicious abuse.
