S30·E115 October 20, 2025 - Bernie Sanders

Jon Stewart examines the "No Kings" protests that failed to meet Fox News's violent expectations, why Trump fits the mold of a gold-smeared monarch, and how even the Declaration of Independence foreshadowed Trump's king-ish antics. "It's got to be a bottom-on-up revolution, not a top-down." Senator Bernie Sanders sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss his latest book, "Fight Oligarchy." They talk about harnessing the energy of the "No Kings" rallies to build a clear vision for the Democratic party, prioritizing universal healthcare and affordable housing expansion, how Trump has embraced some socialist policies, the danger of corporations and oligarchs regulating the government, and making AI work for working people.
