Jon Stewart Sounds the Alarm on Trump’s Second Term

Jon Stewart, host of The Daily Show, recently made a chilling prediction about Donald Trump’s presidency, which began its second term in January.

A Scathing Critique of Trump’s Lawsuit

In an interview on The Bill Simmons Podcast, Stewart blasted Trump’s aggressive tactics—specifically the $20 billion lawsuit against CBS News and Paramount. Trump claims they interfered in the 2024 election following an interview with Kamala Harris.
Stewart slammed the lawsuit as a blatant push for media loyalty and warned it signals darker days ahead.

Warning Signs for Independent Media

Although he remains a fixture on The Daily Show, Stewart voiced growing fears about threats to independent journalism under Trump’s leadership.
He mocked Trump’s exaggerated praise of his first 100 days in office, comparing it to a wild fantasy where America both lands on the moon and ki.lls Bin Laden.

A Grim Prediction for 2029

Ultimately, Stewart fears Trump will “burn the country down for the insurance money.” He believes the presidency could end in 2029 with the U.S. in complete disarray.
