“Daily Show Asks Wade If Willis Affair Was Worth Ending Democracy”

Posted on June 28, 2024June 28, 2024 by yellowdogrising

Newsbusters: “For the Tuesday installment of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, Marlon Wayans broke out his Quan character as he interviewed former Fulton County special prosecutor Nathan Wade to ask if the affair with D.A. Fani Willis was worth ending democracy….

Since Wayans was playing a character, he never asked Wade explicitly about whether the tradeoff was worth it. Instead, he would try to make things awkward by using heavy irony and sarcasm to point out that none of Wade’s inside legal baseball talk explains the affair, “I see it all happen, countless hours, and I need a foot rub, and, you know what I mean? She rubbed your foot like ‘here, let me give you a massage’ and all of a sudden we up on this desk. Man.””
