Jon Stewart says Biden couldn't get a job as a 'cashier at Home Depot' based on debate performance

Comedian Jon Stewart said Biden wouldn't qualify for a job as simple as a Home Depot cashier based on his debate performance last month on this week's episode of "The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart."

Stewart, along with guests, Jon Favreau and Tommy Vietor of Pod Save America and CNN political commentator Bakari Sellers, analyzed the future of Biden's presidency and the party's response to previous crises.

"Bill Clinton on the eve of it all, it came out he had had an affair, I can't remember- Jennifer Flowers I think it was, and then it was the Paula Jones situation and then there was the Monica Lewinsky situation and Democrats did fall in line," Stewart said Thursday. "I mean people made- 'Oh, this is terrible and I'm disappointed with the president,' but ultimately the Democrats did fall in line."

Sellers noted that Republicans fell in line after former President Trump said he was resolved to stay in the race in 2016, adding that the party doesn't "fall in love," they "fall in line."

But, Stewart said the two instances are different because the problem is Biden's mental state and personal health.

"I think that you are soft selling the more fundamental aspect of people viewing somebody who, I'll be perfectly honest with you, I don't know of a job interview that you could have gone on and delivered the performance that was delivered by Joe Biden and gotten a job," he said. "I'm not talking about the presidency, I'm talking about, like, cashier at Home Depot, like a job that you would not think, ‘Okay, that is the hardest job in the entire world.’"
