Jon Stewart compares Donald Trump to ‘man-made disaster’
“Trust me – after the complete Americanization of Iran, the only thing they’ll be six months away from developing is diabetes and heart disease”, Stewart said. During the in-depth interview, the two discussed an array of topics, including the recent Iran deal on nuclear weapons – which had CBS News’ Major Garrett rather upset – as well as veterans, the current healthcare system, and yes, Donald Trump. Lindsey Graham explaining on CNN that he thought the deal was bad, even though he hadn’t read it yet.
The Obama administration sent the nuclear agreement to Congress on Sunday, and as Stewart noted, many Republicans expressed their extreme unhappiness with it. Some, like Sen.
“I guess some would say that’s tautological reasoning”, Stewart countered, using his McConnell “impersonation”. Stewart allowed that the deal isn’t flawless, but wondered, “what is our alternative?” But on Wednesday night, Jon Stewart said he wanted to try to give the Trump talk a break for one day. “Basically, you’re treating this critical worldwide accord like some kind of bizarro iTunes user agreement”. “Blah, blah, blah, just skip all the details, go to the bottom, and click disagree”.
The comedian, who only has three weeks left as host of “The Daily Show (sob!), was positively gleeful as he asked the question that’s been on everyone’s mind since Trump announced his presidential bid: “What the f**k is wrong with him?”
