Jon Stewart Calls America ‘The Jake Paul of Nations’ After Donald Trump Threatens ‘Easy Marks’ Like Panama, Denmark and Canada: ‘We Used to Fight Nazis’
On this week’s episode of “The Daily Show,” Jon Stewart took aim at President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs and his plans to take over Panama and Greenland.
Stewart opened the segment with a compilation of news clips detailing a “new trade war” that could emerge from Trump’s tariffs on the EU, Canada and Mexico.
“The EU? Canada? Do we have any friends? I mean, Mexico, I get. Trump’s been hate-fucking Mexico pretty much since the escalator,” Stewart said, referencing Trump’s famous ride down the Trump Tower escalator before announcing his presidential candidacy in 2015. “But Canada? Ca-nada? We’re picking a fight with our most reliable and pleasant friend? The labradoodle of allies?”
Stewart then took aim at Trump’s threats to “take back the Panama Canal” and “use military force to take Greenland.”
“Denmark, Panama and Canada. We’re America! We used to fight the Nazis.
