Jon Stewart unleashed a curse-laden rant on TV Monday as he played footage of Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer trying to explain why he backed the GOP spending bill.
“What the f— happened?” a visibly furious Stewart demanded to know.
He added, “[Schumer] probably got a little something out of this… [He] wouldn’t have given up that powerful leverage on the budget for nothing. My guess is Chucky got some cheese.”
Stewart is one of many angry that Schumer and a handful of other Democrats helped the spending bill — laden with offerings to assist the Trump agenda — pass. Some, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) preferred to let the government shut down.
Schumer announced Monday that he was canceling a book tour because of the backlash he’s been hit with.
“Senator Schumer, no disrespect, but you are a disgrace to Jewish stereotypes about financial negotiations,” Stewart said. “That’s just, I thought the whole point of us is that’s what we do.”
He also hit Schumer for claiming he would continue to oppose Trump. “We’re going to keep at it,” he said.

“You’re going to keep at it?” Stewart mocked. “At what?”
“This was it! This was the ‘it’ that you would have been keeping at… Don’t you have to start it to keep at it? If this wasn’t it, then what is it if this not be it?”
“… There is a persistent fiction within the Democratic Party that if they just hang out with Republicans in the gym, or wait out Trump’s popularity, or give them concessions on a continuing resolution they said would harm the country, that Republicans will finally see the light.”
The Democratic Party has seen a major plunge in approval numbers in recent days.
