Stewart on Trump’s Ukraine War Deal: Everything Sounds Better if the Only Other Option Is World War III

EXCERPT:

STEWART: "Yeah, bullsh*t. I’m pretty sure everybody wants to end the war. Hitler wanted to end the war, just not the way it ended. You’re pretending that we have no other options."
(Cheering and Applause)

MILLER: "Our hearts all break for the suffering and loss and death, but you know what would be even worse? World War III."
[clip ends]

STEWART: "Yes, I’m sure your 'heart' — in quotation marks — is breaking. But in your little zero-sum formulation, you are correct. Total capitulation by Ukraine, loss of all their mineral wealth, and no security guarantees is still better than World war III, for now. But, you know, everything sounds better if the only other option you're presenting us is World War III. You can listen to the 'Emilia Perez' composer freestyle another [bleep] verse at the Oscars, or World War III. Eventually, you will agree to hear another verse, by a hair! These guys are so [bleep] up Trump’s ass, they can’t even admit that this meeting was Russia’s wet dream."
