Summary
Jon Stewart mocked Donald Trump’s reaction to the war plan leak, accusing him of exhibiting “quick onset dementia” whenever faced with accountability.
Stewart noted Trump’s aloof response to the security breach, where classified war plans were leaked via a Signal group chat mistakenly including a journalist.
Stewart criticized Trump’s repeated denial pattern, comparing it to previous instances where Trump distanced himself from controversial actions.
He also condemned the “crazy arrogance” of officials involved in the chat, calling the situation a major national security blunder.
It’s a very very different show. The Daily Show is pretty much back to the Obama-era show in tone and theme, but the hosts change.
Jon’s long form interviews are now a “Weekly Show” podcast that’s on Thursdays.
Ah thank you. I’ll check those out!
