That's what Trumpers believe. Over and over, we see these mega-wealthy entertainment "elite" do acts of compassion and do what they can to really help people who need it. While the real elite, like Trump, work to help the ones who don't need help but just want more and more and more.

Jon Stewart has done a really good thing for the First Responders. He's made a difference. A quality person, a quality American citizen. A great guy.

Loved his takedown of Congress recently. He was right, too.

This was so touching. My eyes were filled with tears and that is a rare occurrence. Jon Stewart is a real mensch and I so admire the support he gave to this community. I am so heartbroken over what they have been through and how callously they were treated by the government. I hope that they get all the help they need. It is the right thing to do.
