Jon Stewart on presidential candidate Donald Trump:
“Donald Trump: the only presidential candidate maybe in history who looks like the back of a Shar-Pei brought to life by an enchanted wig.”
I ask that you withhold judgement until you see the next photo Jon holds up. If this still sounds cold to any of you Trump supporters, (the ones who were not paid fifty dollars to pretend), please put Stewart’s remark in context. With only a few weeks left before he leaves the show – short-timer Jon Stewart rejoiced – as did all comedy fans, when The Donald finally made his official announcement to run for the highest office in the land. Jon’s emotional elevator soon plunged to the basement, when it was disclosed that Trump had not yet filled out the necessary paperwork, as mere mortals do before making a legitimate announcement. It was enough to make Stewart stage an early retirement – until, a late breaking report revealed that Trump had indeed gotten around to it. There is joy in Trumpville again! So, you see – unintentionally, Donald Trump has put Jon Stewart on an emotional roller coaster, and the gloves are off!
Stewart recapped Trump’s bizarre foreign policy statements, which makes me fervently hope they aren’t paying any attention to us. Someone might actually think we intend to put Mexico on restriction ‘until they behave.’ Imagine Myanmar – ‘Newsflash! American billionaire declares we are Burma again! ‘
Jon thinks we should let Trump run. The comedian in Jon said: “Let’s have fun. What’s the harm of riding this crazy train and see how long it will take us?”
