Jon Stewart discovered and trained Trevor Noah, a young black guy from South Africa, and entrusted him with the comedy show he had run for many years in 2015. The Jewish Stewart himself should be regarded as the wisest political satire in the United States in recent years, but the movies created by the same brain can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

"Irresitible" (Irresitible, 2020), which premiered on Friday, has a clear focus-an economically declining town in Wisconsin, an important swing state for the 2020 election, the story roughly says that the mayor election also requires the use of both "The Art of War" and Makia. Willy's strategy plus a large amount of capital investment. The problem is that if the money is directly used to improve people's livelihood, the effect may be much greater. There is no lack of wit in the film, but using the difference between simile and metaphor as a joke is a certain distance from Stewart's sharp and talented show when he hosted the evening comedy show.

During the epidemic, all movies premiered on streaming media platforms seemed to choose a fee of $19.99 for 48 hours. In order to make myself feel value for money, I can only replay it repeatedly without hesitating to pay more for electricity.

The locals can’t see it anyway, but the car rental refused to BMW 7. Instead, he chose the domestic brand Ford Explorer and asked for the car audio to be BOSE. , So that he can listen to NPR's talk show Fresh Air.

    Mayor Braun: Come on in.

    Diana Hastings: Thank you. I'm so sorry. I... I'm pulling the plug.

    Mayor Braun: Hey, hey.

    Diana Hastings: I mean, we have the money we need. We have more than we would need. And this would... destroy your brother.

    [inhales deeply]

    Diana Hastings: And I'm just so sorry.

    Diana Hastings: [looks down] Mm-hmm.

    Mayor Braun: This place was done. Just another town in the middle of nowhere, going nowhere. And everyone agreed... yours was the best idea we had.

    [sighs]

    Mayor Braun: Well, I just know how proud of you your dad is and how proud your mom would be. And how grateful every single one of us are for what you've done and everything you've given. It's working.

    Diana Hastings: We used you? You guys only show up here once every four years, and only then 'cause it's a swing state. And then, when it's over, you're gone.
