He pointed out the irony of criticizing billionaires while featuring them at the convention, questioning the authenticity of a party that claims to represent the working class yet celebrates wealthy individuals.
Stewart humorously noted the presence of attendees deriding elite institutions like Yale while being complemented by numerous Yale graduates, illustrating the party's contradictions.
He expressed concern over the DNC's lack of acknowledgement regarding the ongoing tragedy in Gaza, emphasizing that thousands of civilian casualties conflict with the convention's festive atmosphere.
