host Jon Stewart would win the presidency “in a slam dunk” if he were to run.of running in the past, urged Stewart to run during an episode of his SiriusXM show this week.
“That guy is so fucking smart, and bright, and also witty and really measured when he takes on a debate,” Stern said. “He knows how to talk. And you know, he would work his ass off to be a good president.” Stern then compared Stewart to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who himself was comedian before ascending to political power. He also cited Stewart’s impassioned defense of 9/11 first responders.
“Remember when Jon went to Congress and lobbied for the 9/11 first responders,” said Stern. “Watch when he talks to politicians and he confronts them. Watch the guy. He just makes a lot of good points. He owes it to his country. The guy would be terrific and I think he’d do it.” While Howard Stern may revel at the prospect of Stewart running for president, the general public would likely yawn.
