Donald Trump’s chaotic inauguration was the main focus of Jon Stewart’s opening monologue throughout Monday night time’s episode of “The Daily Show.”
After years of righteously, and justifiably, criticizing the convicted felon for making an attempt to overthrow our authorities, a lot of his detractors rolled on into the Capitol rotunda to look at his coronation.
“Even Mike Pence showed up, I guess, to let the crowd finish the job,” Stewart mentioned concerning the former vp, who virtually misplaced his head after Trump focused him forward of the Jan. 6 rebellion.
“Solely Michelle Obama appeared to have the constant moral stance of claiming, ‘When they go low, I stay the fuck home,’” he added.
Your complete inauguration was a show of the oligarchical takeover of the U.S. authorities, with the entrance row actually stuffed with the world’s wealthiest males.
“Populism, ladies and gentlemen,” Stewart mentioned. “Shouldn’t this gathering be happening at a volcano lair near Zurich? Or are we just open source illuminati now?”
And to prime all of it off, Trump didn’t even hassle to place his hand on the Bibles that Melania Trump held for his swearing in.
“Yes, it turns out Trump didn’t actually put his hand on the Bible. Obviously, because one or the other would burst into flames. Perhaps both,” Stewart joked.
