Jon Stewart came out of hibernation again to remind America what they are voting for
Well never fear - he's back! (kinda)
WHilst speaking at a 'Stand up for Heroes benefit in New York, Stewart gave us a colourful history of his feud with GOP candidate Donald Trump.
The former Daily Show host explained how the Twitter war gave rise to a nickname for Trump that the internet has taken delight in reminding him of on a regular basis.
Here are the tweets in order.
The initial volley came from the Trump camp.
I promise you that I'm much smarter than Jonathan Leibowitz - I mean Jon Stewart @TheDailyShow. Who, by the way, is totally overrated.

Follwed by another salvo.
As Iâve said many times before, Jon Stewart @TheDailyShow is highly overrated.

And one more for good measure.
If Jon Stewart is so above it all & legit, why did he change his name from Jonathan Leibowitz? He should be proud of his heritage!

Stewart returned the 'compliment'
"Did you know Donald Trump's birth name is F**kface Von Clownstick? ... That's all over Twitter... I hope." http://t.co/C4Rropggqr

That seemed to have angered Trump.
Amazing how the haters & losers keep tweeting the name âF**kface Von Clownstickâ like they are so original & like no one else is doing it...

Like...a lot!
Whatâs funny about the name âF**kface Von Clownstickâ -- it was not coined by Jon Leibowitz-- he stole it from some moron on twitter.

Another response from Stewart.
We seem to have hit a Fuckface Von Nervestick.

And the final line...
@caaataclysm Little Jon Stewart(?) Is a pussy, he would be hopeless in a debate with me!
