‘Motherf*cker! How Dare You!’ Jon Stewart Rips Trump’s Interview With Kristen Welker

 

The Daily Show host Jon Stewart ridiculed President Donald Trump Monday night for telling NBC News that children need no more than three or four dolls and five pencils amid his ongoing tariffs.

Reacting to Trump’s interview with Meet the Press host Kristen Welker, Stewart said, “Look, I’m trying very hard in this new Trump flood-the-zone media ecosystem strategy to not get too high or low, to not take the bait, to find things in my life that give me pleasure or peace. For instance, quick story, I have a niece, 11 years old, loves dolls. I was gonna get her 20 to 30 of them for her birthday, just to see the joy of a child. You can’t put a price tag on that, it gives me great solace. Anyway, like I said, I’m not trying to take these interviews personally.”

Stewart then played a clip of Trump from the interview saying, “I don’t think a beautiful, baby girl that’s 11 years old needs to have 30 dolls.”

“First of all, I don’t think we consider 11-year-olds ‘baby girls,'” mocked Stewart. “Second of all, you don’t know what she needs! She’s been through a lot this year! How many dolls would you get her? What is the appropriate number of dolls to get a beautiful baby 11-year-old girl, Mr. President?”

Stewart then played a clip of Trump answering, “I think they can have three dolls or four dolls.”

“You know what? Doesn’t matter. Dolls are not her only happy place anyway,” Stewart responded. “She also loves taking standardized tests. No, it’s true. Very erudite. So I was thinking of getting her this wonderful ‘Baby’s First SAT’ kit. It has all the Scantron sheets and around 250 No. 2 pencils. She’s gonna go crazy. She is gonna love it.”

After The Daily Show host played a clip of Trump stating, “They don’t need to have 250 pencils. They can have five,” he shouted, “Motherfucker! How dare you?”
