Stewart rolled footage of Biden last week at a press conference intended to reassure the public about his cognition after the special counsel called him an “elderly man with a poor memory.”
Instead, as Stewart noted, the event was marked by a few misspeaks from the president.
“So Joe Biden had a big press conference to dispel the notion that he may have lost a step ― and, politically speaking, lost three to four steps,” Stewart said.
He said Biden had another chance to prove himself by doing the traditional interview after the Super Bowl, where “millions and millions of people could see him competently and clearly lay out his 2024 agenda.”
But Biden declined and released a TikTok video instead, answering short questions about the game and praising chocolate chip cookies.
“Fire everyone. Everyone!” Stewart declared. “How do you go on TikTok and end up looking older?”
But Stewart was every bit as hard on Trump, who over the weekend found a strange new way to pronounce “Pennsylvania” and then warned that “they” will change the state’s name.

Then, he got serious with his audience.
“I’ve learned one thing over these last nine years, and I was glib at best and probably dismissive at worst about this,” he said as he delivered his message:
