I don't usually watch late night American shows but can never skip this dudes rant clips. I wonder if he thinks of having a stab at politics or maybe his mission is just better serves as a show host.

The one time he got directly involved in politics, he berated Congress into covering medical expenses for 9/11 first responders. I doubt he wants to serve as an actual politician though.

Homes that's not a one-time thing. He's been fighting for that for years and still does.

He has said he has no interest or qualification for politics, that his role is as a comedian.

I think he's wrong. He is very qualified, as is Al Franken.

Al Franken was a great politician, one of the last ones to feel actual shame and remorse. Resigned because of a dumb joke whilst in the company of marines, should've stayed, but I bet he's happier being out of it 😥

Something Musk cut again. I'm amazed how despite doing stuff like that Republicans keep getting elected. Seems like an easy attack ad to cut.

There is no liberal media.

It's all been consolidated by the right, or rather, their rich benefactors.

I actually have this shirt. I think he would be really good for US politics, but I can respect that he also doesn't want to be involved (outside of his 9/11 activism, of course).
