Jon Stewart Rips Dems for Trying to ‘Out-Race Hyperbolize’ Each Other

Jon Stewart returned to the “fuckery and dumbassery” from Congress tonight, this time going after Democrats for trying to “out-race hyperbolize” each other in going after Republicans for holding up Loretta Lynch‘s nomination.

He brought up Dick Durbin‘s “back of the bus” comment and Charlie Rangel talking about inherent Republican racism, mocking the latter’s propensity to say “very dumb things.”

Stewart felt it important to note the Democrats are “just trolling,” and explained that Republicans aren’t being racist in holding up Lynch’s nomination. They’re just being Republicans.
