Jon Stewart Donald Trump Rant: What Ex-Daily Show Host Said About President’s Time In Office
Comedian and former "Daily Show" host Jon Stewart appeared on the “Late Show With Stephen Colbert” Tuesday night and slammed Donald Trump’s presidency.
Stewart imitating Trump's attire with a "super long tie, dead animal on head," said: "We have never faced this before: Purposeful, vindictive chaos."
The 54-year-old then poked fun at Trump’s signing of the executive order on the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
"I hereby direct that to secure our border, China shall immediately and without hesitation send us their wall," Stewart said. "Done. Boom!"
Stewart then read what he claimed were certain executive orders, which he said Trump would direct his staff to speak in “bulls--t.”
"I, Donald J. Trump, have instructed my staff to speak only in bulls--t," Stewart said. "Bulls--t all the time. Immersion, it's the only way to be fluent."
The final order stated “that I, Donald J. Trump, am exhausting,” Stewart said. “Eleven f------ days. Eleven. The presidency is supposed to age the president, not the public. The reason that I am exhausting is that every instinct and fiber of my pathological self-regard calls me to abuse of power.”
“I want — no, deserve — not just your respect but your adoration. Parades with the tanks and the synchronized dancing, and why can’t they train 10,000 doves to spell out “Trump” in the clouds? How hard can it be? They’re already flying,” he said.
Stewart then addressed the U.S. citizens and said: “No one action will be adequate, all action will be necessary, and if we do not allow Donald Trump to exhaust our fight and somehow come out of this presidency calamity-less and constitutionally, partially intact, then I, Donald J. Trump, will have demonstrated the greatness of America, just not the way I thought I was going to.”
