00:00They should be taking whatever magical drugs can kick their brains into gear because this ain't
00:06Olympic swimming. John Stewart and others are reacting to Joe Biden and Donald Trump's first
00:12presidential debate of 2024. The Daily Show host dived right into roasting the performances of
00:17both candidates, which aired on CNN on Thursday night. Both men came out and oh yes, okay. And
00:24then of course, both men are ambulatory. They are both upright. Stewart was particularly concerned
00:30by Biden's performance, with the president seeming shaky on stage during CNN's 90-minute
00:35telecast. The host rolled clips of conservatives claiming Biden would use performance-enhancing
00:40drugs to be charged up during the debate. Both of these men should be using performance-enhancing
00:47drugs. The host played a clip of Biden seemingly blanking out and losing his train of thought
00:51about 10 minutes into the debate. Um, dealing with everything we have to do with, uh, look,
00:59if we finally beat Medicare. Stewart also ripped Trump for saying a great many things that were
01:07obviously false. Everything that Donald Trump said in that clip is a lie. Blatant and full.
01:17CNN analysts also weighed in criticizing Biden's performance, with former White House Communications
01:22Director Alyssa Farrah Griffin concluding,
01:25I'm someone who believes the former president is a threat to democracy. I think he's a threat
01:29to the America, and we know he wants to fundamentally change our institutions. He has laid out what his
01:35plan is. I am not confident that Biden is the man to take him on. For more on this story,
