The Election is always a hot topic, but the 2016 Election is like no other.
Donald Trump, to the shock of many, won the election and to say that the results have been divisive would be a massive understatement. There have been riots and protests, some violent and some peaceful. Celebrities have also spoken out.
There’s also been a lot of petitioning to remove Trump from office, but unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way.
There is one interesting petition, however, that asks for Jon Stewart to run for President in 2020. It reads:
“America needs a change in politics and who better than American hero Jon Stewart to save the country? He’s the right man for the job, America. You know it. He knows it. Bill Murray knows it. We all know it. Let’s face it, we are totally fucked for the next four years. We need a plan – and this is the best possible plan I can think of. Are you in, America? Hell yes, you are. I knew it. Lets’s do it. We got this.”
This would be an interesting prospect, as you know Stewart has a semi-political background with his hosting duties on The Daily Show.
In a world where celebrities can run for President and win (Ron Perlman jokingly announced his plans to run for President in 2020 earlier this week) who knows what could happen.
If you’d like to sign the petition, you can do so here.
