The Democrats' popular affordability platform has Trump jealously weaving plans for 50-year mortgages and socialist-seeming tariff rebates, and Josh Johnson deciphers how the “money man” president thinks $2,000 checks will solve everything.
On this edition of Who Won It Best, Desi Lydic and Troy Iwata dive into the crèmè de la crème of awards season: the Fox Nation Patriot Awards, where Sean Hannity tortured the crowd with his singing, Mike Waltz got an adoring shoutout, Melania Trump plugged her Amazon flick, and Jason Aldean shined as the biggest star they could muster.
Actor, comedian, former Daily Show correspondent, and U.S. Marine Corps veteran Rob Riggle joins Josh to discuss his memoir, "Grit, Spit, and Never Quit: A Marine's Guide to Comedy and Life." They talk about employing the “don’t quit” military mindset in comedy, fighting excuses by becoming your own drill instructor, and advising veterans who are struggling with the transition from military to civilian life not to isolate.

Jon Stewart "Can't F**king Believe" Democrats Caved on the Shutdown | Rep. Chris Deluzio & Rep. Pat Ryan
In the wake of Democrats' decision to end the government shutdown, Jon Stewart returns to his prediction that they were going to piss away last week’s hard-earned electoral victories. With nothing to gain from caving, momentum on their side, and a deeply unpopular president, Jon compares the Democrats to the New York Giants, who at least had the good sense to fire their coach.
Rep. Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania and Rep. Pat Ryan of New York, who are both Iraq war veterans and members of the House Armed Services Committee, talk to Jon about how the Trump administration prioritizes a trillion dollar military budget over the livelihood of veterans and service members. They also point out where Democratic leadership is lacking, especially after the party’s “weak” concession to end the government shutdown without any gains for their healthcare agenda, and how Americans across the political spectrum are asking for representatives who will fight for them when it matters.
