He absolutely is. He would argue he is just a guy, or just a comedian, or that he was ignorant of the power of making an endorsement at that point of time (and platforming a bunch of MAGA nuts). But the reality is that we know from his own previously that he understood exactly what a softball interview with Trump along with an endorsement would do.

He was just at the White House and texts Trump and Trump Jr all the time.

These rats are all jumping off but also trying to hold onto their bags of gold. I hope they’re heavy.

If we evaluate him by who he still platforms, supports, and surrounds himself with rather than what he says, the conclusion is exceedingly clear.

Its a grift and MAGA loved him because regular comedians would make fun of them for being fucking ass backwards. Now he brings himself and his cronies to Austin and makes fun of liberals and so they can say racist shit. There was an opportunity and Joe took it, fucking scum.

Comedians are funny (ostensibly).

And he def was complicit because of the timing of it. The month before the election, he brought up like a half dozen supporters and the big Orange himself right before the election on JRE. On the other side, I think he brought along only like one Democrat on his show. Ummm, I think that's a bit "unfair and unbalanced", Joe

He's a very stupid guy that agrees with whatever the last person who he spoke to.
