Dave Chappelle’s Radio City Music Hall residency got a visit from Jon Stewart last night, who, as one of the “special guests” promised in the lineup, addressed both the new, hoodless Klan members running around Charlottesville as well as the Trump tweet that helped birth “Fuckface Von Clownstick.” Stewart veered from discussing the pleated slacks-wearing fucks who chanted “Jews will not replace us,” among other things, while converging on the University Of Virginia’s campus last week to protest the removal of one of the symbols of white supremacy, i.e., a Robert E. Lee statue, to rehashing a pre-presidential Trump’s coded tweet about Stewart’s “Jewishness.”
New York Times culture writer Sopa Deb transcribed much of Stewart’s act and posted it on Twitter, quoting the former Daily Show host as being more offended by the president’s support of the neo-Nazis rather than their mere presence in Charlottesville: “It wasn’t so much that there were Nazis. It was really the reaction by certain presidents.”
