Jon Stewart on Trump’s Heel Turn on Zelenskyy In Favor of Putin’s New World Order | The Daily Show

Welcome to The Daily Show how are you my name is John Stewart thank you oh man we we got thank you w God we got a great show boy tonight I'm very excited um as you can see I am I am fully healed oh we see this is what caused all the commotion uh they glued it back together where is it they glued it back together boom that's all that's it that's what nearly brought an old man down a tiny puncture wound that all the blood in my body went let's go uh we got a

hell of a show tonight my guess sociologist and author Matthew Desmond is Gonna Be Love they love him fresh off his upset win as best supporting actor uh and the crowd goes well but first uh if I can just pick up uh something from the last time that I was out here I I'd made a bit of a critique of Elon Musk and the Doge program let me let me reset uh the scene [Applause] um uh I I am not allowed to have big boy mugs anymore there was there was an actual meeting of the

safety department of Paramount and Viacom that was like no more ceramic for Mr Stewart so they they wanted to Baby proof so this is anyway uh we had some critiques about Doge after the show Governor musk tweeted or xed uh I guess that he would like to come on here and and talk to me as long as the show airs unedited so I thought about it and after a a prayerful week with my family well a family um Family Hall Pass situation you don't want to know you don't want to know and quite frankly I

don't want to know but after thinking about uh his offer I thought you know hey that's actually how the in studio interviews normally are is is unedited so sure uh we we'd be delighted uh as a matter of fact let me sweeten or unsweeten the pot the interview can be 15 minutes it can be an hour it could be two hours whatever uh I'll be honest I don't think this network makes any other programming so we could do whatever the we want as long as we rrap before the new season of South Park which comes

out like May or June of 2026 so uh I am game I think it'll be a very interesting conversation but then I I checked x uh again and I saw another uh tweet from Elon because uh you can't not and uh he then said after saying I'd like to come on uh John Stewart cannot be trusted uh and and that I am a propagandist and you give me too little credit and that I am not uh bipartisan again uh the guy who custom made his own dark Maga hat that he wears to opine in the

Oval Office with the president who he spent $270 million to elect thinks I'm just too partisan I I'm really not sure what he thinks bipartisan means but it's generally not I support Donald Trump and also Germany's afd party that that's not bipartisan that's just the same so uh I guess what I would say is this uh look Elon uh I do have some uh criticisms about Doge I support in general the idea of efficiency and delivering better services to the American public in cheaper and more efficient ways and if you want to come on and

talk about it on the show uh great uh if you don't want to sure but can we just drop the pretense that you won't do it because I don't measure up to the standards of neutral discourse that you demand and display at all times because quite frankly that's you know it I know it but let's get to the big story Americans are still trying to process the global realignment that has occurred following the disastrous Oval Office meeting between the president JD Vance and Vladimir zalinski what happened they say are we still America they say who

sideway on they say it's complicated the best way that I can expl explain what happened and show Americans uh how to process this new reality was with another shocking turn of events from this weekend on Saturday night at the elimination chamber the WWE shock the world as John Cena turn heel joined the Rock and attacked Cody rhods now if that does not immediately Ely explain to you our current geopolitical climate you must have grown out of watching wrestling through the normal course of Aging I on the other hand understand this in my bows this explains

it folks all of your shock all of your disappointment all of your anger it's in there it's in the squared Circle you see Saturday night oh we're doing this Saturday night John Cena the good guy of professional wrestling Mr Hustle the champ the man who stood for everything truth justice the guy who literally holds the record for the most make A- Wish Foundation meetings of all time people would get cancer just to meet John Cena [Applause] last weekend Cena fli the script and went from being a face a good guy to a heel a bad

guy now if you don't follow professional wrestling and I'm guessing if you watch this show you do not judging judging from all right but let me continue to bore you with this met metaphor so here's what happened the current WWE champion is one Cody [Applause] rhs seven people say around Cody rhods is the people's champ unquestioned bravery he stands in for zalinski in this metaphor couple of weeks ago the rock the now evil owner of the WWE Putin in our story made Cody rhods an offer the one thing that I want more than anything in

this world is that I want your [Applause] soul he wants zinsky so but sir but sir I am smaller and weaker than you it will take incredible bravery for me to protect my soul and the soul of my people but luckily I am not protecting my soul alone for I have the support of the great John Cena so Cody rhods zalinski told Vladimir Putin Rock no soul for you motherucker and that's when they met in the Oval Office America went to hug zalinski but when America looked up somehow Putin had given John Cena the international

sign for its time and rather than repudiate Putin America smelled what The Rock was cooking and through that bsty Haze America delivered the nutshot the nutshot to the hopes and dreams of ukrainians everywhere and then for no reason America jumped on selinski and started punching him in the face as many times as he could too simplistic no this is it am I uh being too simplistic assigning to the delicate art of real politique a scripted outcome perhaps but judge for yourself Putin broken 25 times his own signature 25 times he broken cire you're in no

position to dictate what we're going to feel you're not in a good position you don't have the cards right now you're gambling with World War II you're gambling with World War II have you said thank you once this entire meeting we gave you through this stupid president $350 billion you're either going to make a deal or we're out this is going to be great television I will say that it sure wasn't but isn't that what you want from the high stakes diplomacy and real life urgency that ending war demands and you know even reporters got

some nut shots in why don't you wear a suit oh no you didn't let's do the dozens oh zilinski you're so poor and War torn you're down to one Brook's brother oh you've you've so War torn you've given up the meaningless Protocols of business attire if you think I'm pushing this metaphor look at the stunned faces in the crowd at WWE when John Cena turned heel I now present you the equally stunned faces of those watching this Oval Office pay-per-view Scott I've never seen anything like that you've never seen anything like that wow uh just

wow that was uh that was something Caitlyn I I want to start with look at her face I mean [Applause] Christian you broke Christiana Alor the woman wanders unprotected through Taliban controlled Afghanistan doesn't give a 10 minutes of trump diplomacy and she's like is anyone else dizzy my A1C is plunging now of course there is one big difference between the WWE and the world of politics in the WWE they seem very clear on who the good guys and who the bad guys are nobody walked out of the match pretending that the guy who got nutshot

was the bad guy there was this attitude of ungrateful seeing his smirk seeing him roll his eyes seeing him refer to JD Vance the vice president as JD he shows up in his Equinox Chic outfit to the dog on oal office president sininsky was also antagonistic and frankly he was rude so impertinent so disrespectful tone deaf going in and fighting back getting sassy with the president and the he sassy he was sassy he was sassy [Applause] he was a real scallywag you know what I would say if I was there in the Oval Office with

him I'd say you better watch your tone Mis I think it was Churchill who during World War II was roundly criticized for being a bit Lippy excuse me Mr we'll decide where you're going to fight them whether it's on the beaches or not or whatever poor guy zalinski his nation was invaded he's Against All Odds held off a much bigger Army for 3 years and we're like would it kill you to smile a little more dress a little nicer you're beautiful country nobody would know show off what you got you know what I'm talking about

maybe some of those rare medals I've been hearing some about but of course if you criticize Trump's very clear hostility to zalinski and very clear appreciation of Putin as being suspicious or a repudiation of American values as they've been outlined since World War II Trump's people quickly set up Straw Men north of Richmond if there are no negotiations what is the alternative another four years of war we're not saying there should be no negotiations we're just surprised at the side you seem to be negotiating for president Trump recognizes the urgent need to end this war

after three long bloody years president zalinski has different AIMS in mind yeah I'm pretty sure everybody wants everybody wants to end all Hitler wanted to end the war just not the way it ended you're pretending that we have we have no other options our hearts all break for the suffering and loss and death but you know what would be even worse World War I yes I'm sure your heart in quotation marks is breaking but in your little zero some formulation you are correct total capit popultion by Ukraine loss of all their mineral wealth and no

security guarantees is still better than World War II for now but you know everything sounds better if the only other option you're presenting us is World War I you can listen to the Amelia Perez composer freestyle another verse at the Oscars or World War I eventually you will agree to hear another verse by hair these guys are so up Trump's ass they can't even admit that this meeting was Russia's wet dream the world is now watching how Trump behaves and acts when he's pressed I thought he stood up for America that we're a good people

we want to help you but we're going to be respected so I think Moscow is probably more afraid of trump than ever yes people get terribly afraid when someone viciously takes their side they must be quaking in their what do Russians wearing their feet I don't is it shoes inside other shoes and then they get very small until the last shoe that you take off is a tiny shoe and you you're really you're positive this has got to be the last shoe and then but no you're little baby tiny shoe little baby little baby tiny

no we [Applause] don't you know what uh Putin must be quaking let's get the this is the actual Russian State television view on Russia's fearfulness the new Administration is rapidly changing all foreign policy configurations this largely coincides with our vision America said do whatever you want it has nothing to do with us it's such a pleasure to watch basically he is taking our bread and butter we wanted to saw the Western world into pieces but he decided to saw through it himself not only are the Russians not fearful they're delighted do you know how hard

it is to Delight a Russian there's only two ways to do it break up the Western Democratic order or bear on roller skates it's the only two ways or so social media dash cam death three things really look none of this is to say zilinski handled this meeting well everyone knows by now Trump's love language is subservience if he calls your wife ugly you praise him if he calls you Whittle you run his State Department and if you're a foreign leader who wants to be on good terms with America you got to butter Trump up

like he Texas toast British PM Kier ster knows how it's done it is my pleasure to bring um from his majesty the king um a letter he sends his best wishes um it's an invitation uh for a second state visit uh this is really special this has never happened before this is unprecedented um and um I think that just symbolizes uh the strength of the relationship between us so this is a very special letter that's how you do it zinski it's a letter from the G it's called a wax seal on it it was brought

here by Harry Potter's owl what a delight the the king is throwing you a ball you'll be the bell of the ball and then I'll sweep your chimney zalinski shouldn't have gone in there with Russia hasn't abided by any ceasefire agreement so we can't trust should have gone in there with a dessert cart and a ke Hotel opportunity so this meeting has deeply wounded America's alliance with Ukraine as well as the rest of Europe and the punditocracy it's having a hard time figuring out the strategy I worry that the the president is actually not interested

in a deal about Ukraine and and but I don't understand it the question now Jim is what happens in Europe how does this make America great again it just does not make any sense you poor dumb bastards it makes perfect sense if only you watched professional wrestling do you get it it was a heel turn I'll explain it again it was a heel turn designed to create the alliance Trump always wanted in the first place what's to understand Trump and the Republicans like Putin better just listen to Putin the radical neoliberalism destroying Traditional Values the

obsessive emphasis on Race modern cancel culture it turns into reverse discrimination Reverse Racism they invented five or six genders Transformers trans you see I do not even understand what it is share toilets for boys and girls cats marrying dogs uh Will and Grace reboot I mean come on it sounds like Putin is primarying Marjorie Taylor Green from the right a woman who by the way gives up the whole point of this realignment the Ukrainian government is attacking Christians Russia is not doing that they're not attacking Christianity as a matter of fact they seem to be

prot in it by bombing other Christians so everyone's wondering why isn't Trump aligning himself with the West in his mind he is Western Civilization not Europe to most of us Russia is not that because we and historically everyone has used the West to mean Western values Europe represents the expansion of Liberties advocated by great enlight thinkers like Lo voler and Russo but to Maga this is Europe it's gay super gay when Maga talks about Western Civilization they mean the knight's Templar still pretty gay I gotta say but excitingly so but that's the thing it's not

democracy versus dictatorship or capitalism versus communism anymore it's woke versus unwoke and Russia is not woke they're very tired they're Kos it wasn't decided in a particularly volatile meeting on Friday you got to give credit where credit is due to magga architect Steve Bannon they've been working on taking out the EU for a while now it's a global Revolt it's a zik we're on the right side of History the Beating Heart of the globalist project is in Brussels by Drive the state through the Vampire the whole thing will start to dissipate we'll call it the

movement or the cause or something like that and that's literally when we take over the EU holy what a concise centrally planned social engineering scheme but here we are the end result of a scripted Arc that culminates in America betraying its old Alliance for the L of a strongman partnership that carves up the world's Rich bounties and places classic Democratic Values behind transactional convenience so say it with me conspiracy theorists by Design it's a new world order so Europe sadly if I may [Music]
