Jon on L.A. Protests Against ICE & Desi on Trump-Newsom Feud & Military Parade | The Daily Show

of a liberal city reliant
on an immigrant population colliding with a heavy-handed MAGA migrant-trolling operation, looking to hit its quota of brown Pokemen. Gotta catch ’em all. Yes, America, this is where we started. – We gotta get the criminals out first. We’re gonna get the criminals, the murderers, the drug dealers. – And this is where we are now. – Protests started following ICE raids at the Home Depot
parking lot in Paramount, south of the city. – A Home Depot? (audience laughing) From the worst of the worst
to a (beep) Home Depot? Geez, ICE, if you need
assistance in arresting people, you know, those guys are
looking for work, so. (audience laughing) It’s an explosive situation on the cusp of federalism
versus state’s rights, border control versus due process, terrifyingly militarized sweeps versus hardworking people
in local communities, the United States Marines versus the Postmates guy who
brought you an egg sandwich. (audience laughing) It’s going to require a deft and firm, experienced and wise. (audience laughing) I think you know where
I’m going with this. A deft touch from
leadership in Washington. – Well, we’re gonna
have troops everywhere. We’re not gonna let this
happen to our country. They spit. That’s their new thing, and when that happens, I
have a little statement. They say, “They spit, we hit.” (audience laughing) – Well done, Mr. Churchill. (audience laughing) When they spit, we hit. (audience laughing) For the love of God, someone
protect Hawk Tuah Girl. (audience laughing)
(audience clapping) Now, obviously, this is a bit of a change
in attitude from Trump towards protecting law enforcement from his previous January 6th attitude of they hit, we don’t give a shit. (audience laughing) So why this escalation? – Top Trump aide, Stephen Miller. – Oh. (audience laughs) (beep) (audience laughing) What is it young Lord Vader wanted? (audience laughing) – Stephen Miller held a meeting
screaming at ICE officials to arrest more undocumented immigrants. – Yeah, that sounds like him. Although I’m pretty sure
Stephen Miller wasn’t screaming. I think it’s just his
default tone is banshee. (audience laughing) It’s what happens when oxygen
molecules are desperate to exit his unholy lungs. (audience laughing) So it just comes out
like (yells gibberish). – Miller, setting a new quota
of 3,000 arrests per day, to include more than just
migrants with criminal records. – Miller reportedly asked ICE officials, “Hey, why aren’t you at Home Depot?” (beep) – And don’t say, ’cause they’re not bothering
anybody down there, ’cause they’re bothering me. Let’s just say at home. I’m sure that’s an exaggeration. I’m sure Stephen Miller
understands overwhelmingly that these are people, and not monsters. – They released people into this nation, not people: monsters. Deport, deport, deport. – Deport, deport, deport. I’m gonna guess that’s what Stephen Miller shouts when he (beep). (audience laughing) “Deport! Deport! “Deport!” (audience clapping) And then, obviously, to be
sensitive to his partner, he has to be, like, “You
deported too, right?” (audience laughing) And then she probably
goes, you know, “Yeah!” (audience laughing) And then goes into the
shower and self-deports. (audience laughing) (audience clapping)
Sorry, that’s, yeah. (audience clapping)
You’re very kind. So now, predictably, these nontargeted, much
broader deportation efforts in cities that feel very connected to the immigrant population is a tinderbox, and Trump happily lights the fuse. Peaceful protestors mixed
with anarchists and vandals pushed back by horseback and tear gas. Nothing could survive the onslaught except the attitude of teenagers. (audience laughing) “(beep) you, Dad, I mean, cops!” Luckily, in the midst of all this chaos, there have been no fatalities. Well, human fatalities. – Self-driving car company Waymo said it was suspending service after at least five of its cars were vandalized and set on fire. – Took five of them before you were like, “Should we stop sending the Waymos?” (audience laughing) You think they were just sitting around? You know, four could be a coincidence, (audience laughing) but it was no coincidence. – It is believed that those Waymos were summoned or booked by the protestors with the intention of then
getting them to the location and torching them. – My God. How dare you? How could you use Waymo’s innocence and helpful spirit against the Waymo? Imagine for a moment
Waymo’s disappointment upon realizing it was, as Admiral Ackbar might say, “A trap!” (audience laughing) You got Waymo going, “Hello, “it is my honor to take
you to Hollywood and…” “What are you doing?” (audience laughing) “My God, no!” (audience laughing) “I’m giving you only one star, no!” “Tell my Roomba I love her.” (audience laughing) For more on the immigration raids, we go out live to Los Angeles with our very own Jordan Klepper. Jordan! (audience cheering) Thank you for joining us. Where do we. Where do we stand right now? Where do we stand right now
with the immigration raids? – Well, the Trump administration does not see these raids as an overreach. They see this as necessary to confront one of the
world’s most notorious gangs. – The gangs at Home? What do they, believe these
people are what, Tren de Aragua? – Even worse: Casa del Depot. (audience laughing) – That’s just Home Depot in Spanish. – Sí, señor, these are bad hombres. (audience laughing) – Jordan, they’re just day laborers. – Oh, well, to the uninformed, perhaps, but I’ve seen some of the pictures of what these folks are
capable of: gruesome depravity. You know what? If anyone at home is watching, and there are children in the room, you might wanna ask them to leave, but take a look at this. Disgusting. (audience laughing) – I mean, what am I looking at? It’s like a stone wall. – You’re looking at what was supposed to be a Tuscan inspired retaining wall Does that look Tuscan
inspired to you, John? – I mean, looks fine, – John, I didn’t pay these
guys 40 (beep) dollars each for fine. Look at my side patio, ugh. – All right I mean. (audience laughing) (audience laughing) – Okay They’re (beep) impatience John. I mean, are you kidding me? They can’t handle full sun, look. Look at these stairs. Does this buff sandstone
look plumb to you. Jordan, I don’t know what
any of those words mean. – Okay. Tell me these guys aren’t
the worst of the worst. – Jordan, see, isn’t this
what the Trump administration wants for people to conflate
violent gang members with innocent day laborers who
are already being exploited? I don’t think anyone would be
complaining about a rational system of due process
getting rid of criminals. – You’re right. – But this right now is needlessly provocative in Los Angeles. – You’re right, you’re right I’m sorry. I lost my head. You know, the American guys
quoted me a patio figure that just was, you know, I
mean, I’m on basic cable, John, but you’re right, I can’t get behind indiscriminately kicking out blameless workers, especially since I still
wanna put in a koi pond, but you know what? You can’t expect a compassionate
approach to deportation when you got a psycho like
Stephen Miller in charge. I mean, that guy just
gives me the willies. (audience laughing) – Jordan don’t, Jordan don’t look, but Stephen Miller is, is he clicking? Is Stephen Miller clicking? (clicking sound) – Yeah, Johnny he’s clicking now, right? He uses Echo location to hunt his prey. He found me, okay? I shouldn’t have said his name. I just can’t say it again or another Stephen Miller will appear. Dammit! Dammit! John, it’s too late for me. All right. (audience clapping) John, John, tell my wife I love her idea to build a gazebo next to the koi pond. Stay away, stay away. – Jordan Klepper, everybody. Jordan Klepper. I’m sure he’ll be fine. I’m sure he’ll be fine. (audience clapping) That was eerie. Very eerie. Now, moving back to the tension, turmoil and violence
coming out of Los Angeles, it’s hard to watch an American
city torn apart like this, and quite honestly, I was a bit surprised, but even the MAGAsphere is somber and reflective at what
they’re seeing in Los Angeles. – It’s deeply, deeply unfortunate. – Look, I’ll be honest, this like really hurts my soul. – I think it’s a sad thing to see it. – No one wants to see this. – I hate to see it. I think America hates to see it. – Most importantly, it’s
gonna be bad for the country. – I think it is important for us to pray, you know, for peace. (audience laughing) – Sorry, I’m being told that
wasn’t about Los Angeles That was them heartbroken
that Trump and Elon have gone no contact. (audience laughing) That’s a slightly different thing. That’s true. See, for the right, right now, I guess that’s the real national tragedy Elon Musk has unfollowed cat turd. We must pray for peace. (audience laughing) See, the upset in LA is in a blue state, in a blue city with people that they don’t give a (beep) about. – I’m incredibly happy with
President Trump’s decision. – Trump is right on target with this. This just screams common sense. – An enormous positive for our country. – It’s certainly well deserved. – There was never any consequences and now the hammer is being dropped. – Do you wanna live in Los
Angeles, which is mini Mexico? (audience laughing) – To be fair, they also
have a fantastic Koreatown. (audience laughing) But you know, why escalate this shit now? The unrest in LA is a predictable outcome of these aggressive tactics. I believe the right refers to federal overreach
as, don’t tread on me. we the people, cold dead hands, something along those lines. So why is this happening now? What’s it meant to distract from? I mean, I can’t even remember. What were we even talking about right before the first
Waymo went up in flames? – Elon Musk is now accusing Trump of being in the Epstein files. – Oh, right, that’s what
we were talking about. (audience laughing) Which now, to be fair to Trump, it is ridiculous. I mean, you can’t just make
wild accusations like that just because Trump and Epstein
hung out once or twice, or Trump was in the flight logs, or Epstein called Trump his closest friend or they went to parties
and whispered, you know, I can only assume biblical
passages in each other’s ear. I’m telling you, I’m telling you Epstein, 2 Corinthians, you gotta check it out,
it’s (beep) awesome. (audience laughing) It’s not a crime to be
in each other’s hearts and what indication has Trump ever given that there may be things
within those Epstein files that may be concerning to him? – Would you declassify the 9/11 files? – Yeah. – Would you declassify JFK files? – Yeah.
– Would you? – I did I did a lot of it? – Would you declassify the Epstein files? – Yeah, yeah, I would. – All right.
– I guess I would. I think that less so, because you know, you don’t know, you don’t want to affect people’s lives if it’s phony stuff in there. (audience laughing) (people clapping) – A lot of phony stuff in there. You know, he can put anything in a file, say anything about anybody. By the way, just for the
record, asking a 17-year-old masseuse if she’s planning on
staying in the United States, that’s a legitimate question, and the rest of the video is AI. If there’s a video. My favorite moment was when the head of the FBI, Kash Patel, found out Elon accused Trump of being on the Epstein
list live while podcasting. (audience laughing) – Does he know that Donald
Trump is in the Epstein files or does he have access
to the Epstein files? – I’m just, I don’t know how he would, but I’m just staying out
of the Trump/Elon thing. That’s way outside my lane. – What the (beep) are they doing? – I know my lane, and that ain’t. (audience laughing) Not your lane? Aren’t you literally in
charge of the Epstein files? (audience laughing) I know my lane. I’m just a guy in charge of
law enforcement domestically, conspiracies, crimes, coverups, Home Depot parking, overcrowded, you know. But now, because of their personal issues, Musk has threatened to expose Trump and Trump has threatened to cancel Musk’s government contracts and he’s threatened serious
consequences to Musk, if Musk funds democratic candidates. It must be hard for the
right to see how petty and petulant these two man babies are and how they wield their
power in vindictive and capricious manners when
they don’t get exactly their way and the damage that that behavior causes and I guess what I would
say to the right is, welcome to our (beep) world every day. (audience clapping) Now, you know. Now you know. Harvard won’t bend the knee? Attack. A law firm represented a Democrat, attack. A long term ally that prefers to retain its sovereignty, attack. A small mom and pop business just trying to complete
an $8 billion merger? Attacked. You on the right didn’t give a shit when Godzilla and Mothra
teamed up to destroy the city. You are only mad that now
they’re fighting each other, ’cause you just got a taste of their paper thin,
oversensitive, fragile, ego-driven nihilism, or, as you call it. – It’s like watching two giants fight. – These are two titans. – Two very strong-willed heavyweights. – Two big dogs living in close quarters. – Two grown men that are
fighting, two alpha males duking it out. (audience laughing) – Alpha males? I don’t think we’re
watching the same fight. (audience laughing) You’re seeing this. (audience laughing) It’s actually this. (audience laughing) (people clapping) It’s just a couple of (beep) pussies. If these were two alphas fighting, Ted Cruz’s description of their fight wouldn’t be this funny. – These are two alpha
males who are pissed off, and unfortunately, they’re
unloading on each other. (audience laughing) Deport, deport, deport! (audience laughing) I’m telling them, not me. I’m a citizen. I’m a citizen. Leave me be. – By now, you’ve probably
seen all the protest footage out of LA in the wake of
Trump’s immigration sweeps, but despite what you’re
seeing on the news, keep in mind that most of the protestors have come with more of
a chills, SoCal vibe, dancing, playing music, and unleashing these devastating
projectiles at police, so there’s definitely a chance that this can all be resolved peacefully as long as nobody escalates this thing with an unnecessary show of force will be A-okay. – President Trump mobilizing 2000 California National Guard troops against the will of the state’s Governor, – President Trump ordered
the deployment of 2000 more California National Guard troops, making for a total of 4,000 – Now, making the unprecedented move of dispatching 700 active duty Marines to the streets of Los Angeles. – Yes, nothing calms down a situation like a military invasion. (audience laughing) In fact, that was part of my birth plan. I was like, honey, I want
candles, classical music, and 700 armed Marines
storming the hospital room,. (audience laughing) Also drugs, lots of drugs. (audience laughing) You know what? Scratch that, just the drugs. You know, I’m beginning to wonder if Trump is intentionally trying
to escalate this situation because more chaos allows
him to portray blue states as centers of crime
while positioning himself as a strong man that the country needs to rally around. No, that’s silly. (audience laughing) I’m sure he’s just doing
what’s best for everyone. (audience laughing) Although deploying soldiers
in an American city could put Trump on the wrong
side of the law, again. There is concern over violating the Posse Comitatus Act. – Posse Comitatus Act says that the US military cannot
engage in police functions on US soil. – That’s right, Posse Comitatus. It’s a very serious legal principle, so let’s hear more about this
very serious legal principle. (audience laughing) – Look, I believe strongly
in Pussy Comitatus. (audience laughing) (people clapping) – Indeed, Trump is truly in
violation of Pussy Comitatus. (audience laughing) That’s to say nothing of his
violations of the Snatch Act. (audience laughing) But in all seriousness, this is an extreme measure. The last time Pussy Comitatus was used, it was on your mom last night. (audience laughing) Another major concern here is that Trump called up the National Guard without permission from Gavin Newsom, governor of California, and man with strong opinions about the food in business class. but Newsom is hitting back. – The absurdity of this
cannot be understated. There were 2000 National Guard that were quote unquote deployed, of which only 315 actually
were mission assigned. 1700 have no particular
role or responsibility. – This wouldn’t be the first
time someone went to LA looking for a role and couldn’t find one. (audience laughing) Hey, you listen to me, 1700 troops, you keep following your dreams. (audience laughing) You work on your craft. Knock down those doors. And most importantly, most importantly, do not go into porn. (audience laughing) (people clapping) Do not, don’t do it. Although if you did, I’ve got a great title for you. – Pussy Comitatus. (audience laughing) – There it is. So, okay, Newsom is lobbying
the unfathomable accusation that Trump might make decisions without fully thinking them through, but I’m sure Trump will
be the bigger man here. – Earlier in the day,
the President suggesting that it might be a good idea if his border Czar, Tom Homan, arrested the California governor. – I wish we would, Tom,
I think it’s great. – When asked what crime
Newsom has committed to warrant arrest, the
President responding. – I think his primarily, primary crime is running for governor, ’cause he is done such a bad job. (audience laughing) (audience booing) – That’s a ridiculous
statement from Trump, Gavin Newsom’s primary crime
is obviously his podcast. (audience laughing) And even if Newsom wasn’t good at his job, being a bad governor doesn’t
mean you should get arrested, it means you should be mayor of New York. (audience laughing) (people clapping) So while Newsom and
Trump fight each other, Los Angeles is becoming a
battleground for their rivalry. It’s a hard story to turn away from, especially when some of these reporters are
real easy on the eyes. – It is entirely possible
that by the end of today, we will see nearly 5,000 combined
California National Guard and Marines deployed here
in Southern California. – You can see how much smoke is being deployed on the
other side by the LAPD. – Uff. (audience laughing) Oh, I’m definitely seeing a smoke show. (audience laughing) Someone should really hose that down. Excuse me, are you with CBS? Because I’d like to watch
that ass for 60 minutes. (audience laughing) These jokes were brought
to you by the female gaze. (audience laughing) The female gaze, it’s not creepy, ’cause we’re girls. (audience laughing) (audience cheering) So that’s basically
where we’re at right now. Trump’s terrible policy has
generated a huge backlash, which he’s responded to by overreacting, which is gonna generate another backlash. We don’t know how this is going to end, but at least we know it’ll
be a huge waste of money. – Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth says, the deployment of the State
National Guard Marines will cost at least $134 million. He expects the deployment
to last at least 60 days – Hello, DOGE? (audience laughing) I found some cuts for you. Can you put your mom on the phone? (audience cheering) Let’s kick things off with
Memecoin entrepreneur, Donald Trump, who also moonlights as President of the United States. (audience laughing) Yesterday, he went to Fort
Bragg to give a speech to his favorite men in uniform, who aren’t in the village people. (audience laughing) He was there to commemorate
the 250th anniversary of the Army. So, of course, he ended
up discussing Joe Biden. (audience laughing) – We had a grossly, grossly unfit president. And by the way, I’ve known
this guy for a long time. He was never the sharpest bulb. (audience laughing) – Sharpest bulb? What a wordsmith. See, most people would’ve
gone with brightest bulb or sharpest tool, but Donald Trump took half of both and
squished them together. (audience laughing) That is what makes him
the cream of the litter. (audience laughing) (audience clapping) Bravo. But again, Trump wasn’t there to talk about Joe Biden, he was there to talk about
America’s proud military history and that went great too. – Recently, other countries celebrated the victory of World War I. France was celebrating, really. They were all celebrating. The only one that doesn’t
celebrate is the USA and we’re the ones that won the war. Without us, you’d all be
speaking German right now. Maybe a little Japanese thrown in. (audience laughing) – Okay, I know what you’re thinking, why would we be speaking Japanese when they were on our side in World War I? Well, I think it’s because
he said World War I, but what he meant was light bulb. (audience laughing) But just just for the record, I’d love to speak German and a little Japanese, because that would help me understand like 95% of the porn I watch. (audience laughing) Does anyone know what eine
kleine megachode means? (audience laughing) I don’t, but I like it. (audience laughing) But what got the most attention wasn’t what Donald Trump said, but how much the troops enjoyed it. – President Trump’s rally
style speech yesterday at Fort Bragg in North Carolina. He had active duty
troops booing the media, booing his political opponents. – You think this crowd
would’ve showed up for Biden? I don’t think so. (audience booing) I don’t think so, I don’t think so. The fake news, ladies and
gentlemen, look at ’em. Look at ’em all. Ay, ay, ay. What I have to put up with. Fake news. (audience booing) what I have to put up with. In Los Angeles, the
governor of California, the mayor of Los Angeles. (audience booing) – Oh, those boos are very upsetting and not just because they remind me of my fifth grade talent show. (audience laughing) And looking back, I probably
shouldn’t have performed the entirety of Eddie Murphy’s Raw. (audience laughing) I gotta say, I gotta say, this is not a good look for the military. The military is supposed to be political, that graphic is off. (audience laughing) I’m sorry. Oh, I gotta say, I gotta say, this is not a good look for the military. The military is supposed to be apolitical. They don’t serve Democrats or Republicans, they protect all of us. Even Jill Stein voters for some reason. (audience laughing) But maybe the reason
these troops seem so MAGA is because the non-Trumpers
didn’t wanna be there. – According to military.com, memos from Fort Bragg reveal
a tightly orchestrated effort to curate the optics of
Trump’s recent visit, including handpicking soldiers for the audience based
on political leanings. Other rules for troops appearing on camera included no fat soldiers. (audience laughing) – Wow, that really sums
up the two principles of Donald Trump, doesn’t it? (audience laughing) Number one, total loyalty. Number two, no fatties. (audience laughing) Keep in mind, that before
Trump turned the military into his own personal MAGA cheer squad, he started the week by sending Marines into America’s most bangable city and this is all just the warmup before the main event this weekend. – President Trump’s highly
anticipated military parade kicks off this Saturday. – The parade marks the
Army’s 250th anniversary. – Oh my God, Give these
troops a break already. They have to sit through your show. They have to invade Los Angeles, and now they have to parade for you. America doesn’t do military parades, so why is this one so important? – The parade just so happens to also fall on President
Trump’s 79th birthday. – Ah. (audience booing) Yes, there it is, There it is, there it is. The parade just so happens
to be on his birthday, but that’s not why he is doing it. This parade is for the Army and the fudgy the whale
cake is for the army, but he gets to blow out the candles. So how much is the DOGE president gonna spend on this Army
birthday extravaganza? – The total cost to
taxpayers, up to $45 million. – The Army said it expects minimal damage to DC roads from the 70
ton tanks rolling down, but they’ve budgeted 16
million of your dollars to repair those roads
once the parade is over. – $45 million and a third of that is just
you ripping up the roads? People don’t usually throw down that hard unless they’re moving out the next day. Wait, is Trump moving out the next day? (audience cheering) But hey, at least they’re budgeting for the road damage in advance, ’cause as Donald Trump always says, a penny saved is a bird in the hand. (audience laughing) Let’s start with Robert F Kennedy Jr, Secretary of Health, and the only member of Trump’s cabinet to be reheated in an air fryer. (audience laughing) Earlier this week, Kennedy
abruptly fired all 17 members of the CDC’s Vaccine Advisory Committee, which understandably (audience booing) caused a lot of concern among people who prefer not to die from an old timey
Oregon trail disease. (audience laughing) But RFK Juniors got a new batch of doctors to replace them with, so I’m sure they’re all equally qualified, so let’s get to know some
of these vaccine experts. – Some of the picks are
well-known vaccine critics, including Dr Robert Malone. – Robert Malone, who’s
claimed that millions of Americans were hypnotized
into taking the COVID-19 shots and has suggested those
vaccines cause a form of AIDS. (audience laughing) – I think they liked this guy a lot better when he was just selling us Dos Equis. (audience laughing) I don’t always take vaccines, but when I do, they give me AIDS. (audience laughing) Look, this guy’s obviously crazy, but you can’t deny there was some hypnosis going on during the pandemic, like we were washing our hands every day? (audience laughing) Like, what was that all about? But forget the Department of Health. Let’s move on to the great work
being done by Tulsi Gabbard, director of National Intelligence, and the only Hawaiian who can make aloha sound like a threat. (audience laughing) She decides which of America’s
secrets need to stay secret, but lately she’s been getting some help. – Tulsi Gabbard, head of DNI says, the government is now using
artificial intelligence to speed up its work in
determining which documents can be declassified and released to the public. That includes files related
to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. – Cool, that technology
we’re all scared of and have no idea how dangerous it is, let’s teach it how to kill a president. What could go wrong? (audience laughing) Also, why are you having AI
read the JFK files for you? AI is for tedious things. These are the most exciting
documents in the government. It’s like asking AI to watch
all the sex scenes in a porno, so you can focus on whether
the pizza got delivered. (audience laughing) I mean, maybe I’ve been using
AI wrong this whole time. I thought it was for
doing my kids’ homework and seeing what I look like as Shrek. (audience laughing) Wow. Stay thirsty my friends. (audience laughing) Let’s move on to Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, and guy whose favorite cologne is roofie. (audience laughing) He’s been axing a bunch of
medical research programs for veterans that he
claims are boondoggles, but when Senator Dick Durbin
called him out on it yesterday, he gave a specific example of waste and it was very specific. – Gimme an example of a
boondoggle in medical research. – I mean, we’re talking about some stuff I shouldn’t say in in public. You know, marbles in
the rear ends of cats. Tens of millions of dollars. (audience laughing) – Sometimes I hear about
science experiments and I think, God, I am so
glad when I was growing up, no one was telling women
they should be scientists. (audience laughing) Really dodged a bullet there. To be fair, they were trying to find out why Garfield hates Mondays. (audience laughing) Now, they know. Now, they know. Also, anyone who has cats knows that this isn’t the weirdest idea ever. I mean, they are constantly
showing us their butt holes. (audience laughing) At some point someone’s
gonna be, all right, let me try something. (audience laughing) But in case you’re wondering who would fund such a ridiculous study, that would be President Trump himself. In 2020, his Defense
Department said it was part of a revolutionary new treatment
for spinal cord injuries. And that’s the thing about science, It’s easy to make it
sound made up and stupid. It’s not airtight like the Bible. (audience laughing) And someone who just wants to cut funding can
trivialize any research, because, yeah, trying
to make dogs salivate by ringing a bell sounds weird, but it proved an important point that dogs love bells, I think. (audience laughing) I don’t know I failed psych, but this is a great example of how anti-science the
Trump administration is. When Pete Hegseth talks about science, he makes it sound stupid and when RFK Jr talks about it, he makes it sound like someone dropped a fork in the garbage disposal. (audience laughing) Let’s move on to the reason your horse’s prescriptions are out of stock, Elon Musk. (audience laughing) Last week, he got into a
fight with Donald Trump that got so ugly, he claimed that Trump
is in the Epstein files. The friendship seemed unsalvageable, but it turns out it wasn’t quite as cyber (beep) as we thought. (audience laughing) – The world’s richest
man is now apologizing to the world’s most powerful man. Musk, backing away from some of his online attacks
posting this apology. I regret some of my posts about
President Trump last week. They went too far. – No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You cannot whoopsy Daisy you’re way out of saying
someone’s in the Epstein files. (audience laughing) It’s not like saying,
sorry, I slammed the door, or sorry, I shoved marbles
up your cat’s butt. (audience laughing) I mean, I’m glad he apologized because I guess it showed us exactly how long it takes for
ketamine to wear off. (audience laughing) (people clapping) Let’s move on from the worst wing, because America is having
a hard time right now. The military is invading California, US senators are getting
manhandled by federal agents, and people are about to be
thrown off their Medicaid, and President Trump is
hearing everyone’s concerns and he’s decided to rush to where he’s needed
the most, the theater. (audience laughing) – President Donald Trump
going to see a performance of “Les Mis” at the Kennedy
Center on Wednesday. – Do you identify more with
Jean Valjean or Javert. – Oh, that’s a tough one. The last part of that
question, that’s tough. I think you better answer
that one, honey, I dunno. (audience laughing) – I don’t know what’s worse, that a reporter thought it
was a good idea to ask Trump if he’s the hero or the villain, or that Trump’s response was,
oh, that’s a tough question. (audience laughing)

As Los Angeles protests the Trump administration’s ICE raids, Jon Stewart analyzes the president’s un-alpha response, and Desi Lydic dives into Trump’s National Guard order, planned military parade, and decision to hit the theater in the midst of chaos. #DailyShow #JonStewart #Trump
