The Jon Stewart who popularized the political news satire format that dominates TV today? The same Jon Stewart who won so many Emmys, they should have called them Jonnys?

Stewart is 100 percent the man who bungled this election comedy that boasts not a single satisfying joke, all the while priding itself on being ripped from 4-year-old headlines.Because Stewart knows exactly what beleaguered Americans need right now, he begins his film with a rehash of the 2016 presidential race.
