Never understood how she could be on Jon Stewart's team.

Maybe its your own sense of humour that needs a check.
I find Sam not only funny, but very intelligent.
Then again, to appreciate intelligent humor its probably best if you're blessed with both intelligence and humor.

... I didn't even have to watch the video to know the poster was a Bernie supporter. Then I watched the video, and understood that Samantha Bee might have made just a little tiny bit more fun of Bernie than she did Hillary. Unforgivable. UNDER THE BUS WITH YOU SAMANTHA!!!

It's an all too obvious pattern. People who a bad word was never said about them are being thrown under Bernie's supporter's bus regularly. Their offense? A negative word about Bernie or a positive word about Hillary. She actually did get Bernie slightly more than she did Hillary, thus the expected response.

I'd like to see John come back, but maybe he wanted to go out on top, like Jerry Seinfeld?

Don't get me wrong, I understand why. The problem is, for people that didn't see the debate or haven't watched any of them, it would seem that Bernie was a dick for telling her to wait her turn to talk when the truth is, she constantly talks over him and cuts him off. To turn this into a women's issue the way she did at the end is a little disingenuous. But, it's for comedy, so I get it.
