Tucker Carlson on Thursday addressed comedian Jon Stewart’s recent advocacy on a veterans’ health care bill by ignoring the legislation entirely and focusing on what matters more to him: Stewart’s height and general appearance.

Spurred by Republican senators voting against the Senate bill to help veterans exposed to toxic burn pits, Stewart made several appearances on Capitol Hill last week into early this week, when on Monday he was filmed shouting at right-wing conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec and calling him a “fucking troll” not acting “in good faith.”

Carlson decided to highlight that encounter instead of anything else Stewart said over the past few days. After playing the clip, Carlson said Stewart looked “like a guy who lives in the men’s room at your public library, eating imaginary insects out of the air.”
