Throughout “The Daily Show” on Monday, all it took was for host Jon Stewart to say President Donald Trump’s title as soon as for the group to erupt into raucous boos.
However Stewart rapidly drew the group’s consideration to a clip of Trump sharing information of an extremely necessary “very, very big announcement—like as big as it gets.”
“And I won’t tell you on what,” Trump mentioned within the clip, inflicting Stewart to humorously gasp.
Maybe not the precise “big announcement” Trump was touting—however nonetheless stunning—was when the ghoulish Stephen Miller, White Home deputy chief of workers, mentioned on Might 9 that the administration is trying into whether or not or to not “suspend” the constitutional proper of habeas corpus.
“That’s a big announcement. Big enough for Stephen Miller to risk bursting into flames, because of the touch of God’s sunlight,” Stewart mentioned.
Stewart then thought of one other chaotic transfer that might have been Trump’s “big announcement”: that Fox Information ignoramus and conspiracy theorist Jeanine Pirro will serve as interim U.S. lawyer for Washington, D.C.
Or, Stewart thought of, perhaps the large reveal was that Trump was “gifted” a luxurious jumbo jet from the ruling household of Qatar to probably substitute Air Pressure One.
Declaring that Qatar has well-documented ties to Hamas, Stewart remarked, “Oh, Trump’s going to take a $400 million jet from people he would expel from Columbia University.”
But it surely seems that Trump’s massive information wasn’t that he’s considering destroying the Structure, that he employed one other unqualified Fox Information shill for an necessary authorities place, or that he’s overtly taking bribes from international nations.
The “big announcement” was that he plans to reintroduce a coverage that caps drug prices on the lowest worth supplied in different international locations. This announcement appears nice however, upon nearer look, is hardly greater than marketing campaign theater, because it’s unclear whether or not it should really decrease U.S. drug prices.
Of all of Trump’s bulletins, that is the one one which’s really unbelievable.
