Jon Stewart Rips Tucker’s Putin Interview & Desi Lydic Questions “Moderate” Haley | The Daily Show

Welcome to The Daily Show I'm your host John Stewart captain of this dying medium why would you even say that to me a gentleman tell me tonight he said uh oh I'm so happy to be here you know your television is dying I said I am aware and in fact I'm contributing to it you're [Applause] welcome how does Russia have a subway station that normal people use to get to work at home every single day that's nicer than anything in our country there's no graffiti there's no filth there no foul smells that's a nice Subway that's a very although to be fair to the New York City system uh it was constructed in 1904 out of urinal kick by the great engineer jepp be piss everywhere but point taken it's a very nice Subway but the subway that's only one thing so we thought it would be interesting to take a look at a contemporary modern day 2024 Russian grocery store go on all right here we go so I guess you put in 10 rues here and you get it back when you put the cart back so it's free but there's an incentive to return it and not just bring it to your homeless in [Applause] Camp I know I've said this before you're such a dick now I didn't realize really truly like a dick I didn't realize America's homeless problem is caused entirely by easy access to grocery Garden I had all my stuff in my house but I I know I could just put it on Wheels it's so much e this is the uh grocery cart escalator this is designed I'm figuring this out now where the wheels don't move they lock on the grocery cart escalator look ma no hands oh okay okay Forest an escalator for the grocery cart and the doors open automattic Al oh Mother Russia Russia is famous for its bread which is one thing I can assess pretty well look at that that's fresh too look at that come on the [Applause] uh got really likes bread uh I hate to think what would have happened if he had found a [Applause] bagel but hey if being a free speech Warrior means you have to bang the occasional [Applause] sourdough but our time is limited could you drive home the purpose of your deception on this trip in the most cynical way possible please we didn't pay any attention to cost as we were just putting in the car where we would actually eat over a week and we all came in around 400 bucks about 400 bucks um it was $104 us here and coming to a Russian grocery store the heart of evil and seeing what things cost and how people live it will radicalize you against our leaders that's how I feel anyway radicalized radicalized and it will radicalize you unless you understand basic economics see $104 for groceries sounds like a great bargain unless you realize Russians earn less than $200 a week but that's the kind of context that a what did you call yourself earlier a journalist would have provided but here's the reality youing know all this because you are in as dumb as your face would have us believe perhaps if your handlers had allowed you would have seen there is a hidden fee to your cheap groceries and orderly streets ask Alexi naly or any of his supporters in Vladimir Putin's Russia political repression is everywhere and hundreds have been arrested for daring to honor naali so publicly right because because the difference between our Ural caked chaotic Subways and your candelabra beautiful Subways is the literal price of freedom but the goal that Carlson and his ilk are pushing is that there's really no difference between our systems in fact theirs might be a little bit better the question is why why is Tucker doing this here's why it's because the old civilizational battle was communism versus capitalism that what drove the world since World War II Russia was the enemy then but now they think the battle is woke versus unwoke and in that fight Putin is an ally to the right he's their friend unfortunately he is also a brutal and ruthless dictator so now they have to make Americans a little more comfortable with that I mean Liberty is nice but have you seen Russia's shopping carts and Tucker would have gotten away with it if it weren't for for those meddling assassins in a statement to the New York Times Carlson said quote it is horrifying what happened to Naval the whole thing is barbaric and awful no decent person would defend it correct no decent person would uh let's kick things off with Nikki Haley she made a big announcement today but it wasn't the one we were all expecting some of you perhaps a few of you in the media came here today to see if I'm dropping out out of the race well I'm not okay we'll just wait another week then do what you want but it's not a good sign for your campaign if you have to keep announcing that you're not dropping out of the race Nikki Haley's campaign has reached the guest who doesn't know when to leave the party stage Republican voters are like oo oh God I got to wake up early tomorrow and Nikki's like o let's start a game of Risk and if this speech was supposed to convince people that she should stay in the race I'm not really sure it did we've all heard the calls for me to drop out the argument is familiar they say I haven't won a state that my path to Victory is Slim they point to the primary polls and say I'm only delaying the inevitable why keep fighting when the battle was a apparently over after Iowa uh she's making a really good case against herself they say my campaign is making everyone sad that I'm a born loser whose own mother wouldn't vote for her they claim I have a 14% on Rotten Tomatoes and I'm not even a movie anyway what were we talking about although look if Haley wants to stay in it's her right if her strategy is to just just hope that Donald Trump goes to prison for life she wouldn't be the only one game recognized game speaking of Donald Trump it's been a week now since Russian dissident Alexi navali mysteriously died in prison after devoting his life to fighting Vladimir Putin's dictatorship and Donald Trump honored him in the only way he knows how by making it about himself the former president for his part weighed in yesterday evening what he did was he shared an opinion piece on his social media website that compares President Biden with Vladimir Putin and Compares himself with Alexi [Music] naly this is utterly disgusting but I have to give Trump credit I didn't realize he could make analogies look at that he's got the double colons and everything little guy's ready for the SATs but yes it is unacceptable to compare navali with Trump navali sacrificed his life for democracy Donald Trump tried to sacrifice Mike Pence's life to kill democracy you could not find two men who are further apart than these two now if you're stupid enough to believe that Donald Trump is a courageous Freedom Fighter like Alexi navali then good news Trump has some perfume he'd like to sell you new Trump branded cologne it's called Trump 47 with the former president's head at the top of the bottle according to the website selling the cologne it smells of a crisp opening of citrus Blends into a cedar Heart underpinned by a rich base of leather and Amber the last time Trump was underpinned by a rich base of leather and Amber Amber had to sign an NDA also I love the shape of that bottle is that cologne or a vibrator from hell now if you think Hawking perfume is undignified for the front runner for president excuse me don't worry it's not just perfume Donald Trump introducing a new sneaker line at a shoe conference in Philly over the weekend this is a big crowd appearing at Sneaker conon in Philadelphia we're going to remember the young people and we're going to remember Sneaker Con your sneaker heads right the former president took today to promote a money-making deal having struck a naming rights agreement for a limited edition sneaker line the most expensive pair in the series selling for $399 that's the real deal that's the real deal this is actually the perfect shoe to tell the world you're about to lose a game of one-on-one by 50 points to be fair though at least when you give money to Trump you actually get something in return if you give money to Democrats all you get is 50,000 emails asking for more money send me a body spray Nancy but I don't know who am I to judge I'm still wearing Crocs from the first time they were popular but poor Donald Trump this week alone he was fined for $355 million historians voted him the worst president of all time and Madame Webb turned out to be too bad to even jerk off to real setback for him so last night Trump took his ego to the day spa also known as Fox News where he sat down with Laura Ingram who came cosplaying as a purse she asked Trump one of of the big questions on everyone's mind what qualities are you looking for in your vice presidential pick well always the first quality has to be somebody that you think will be a good president a lot of people are talking about that gentleman right over there Tim's Scot he has been much better for me than he was for himself I watched his campaign and he doesn't like talking about himself but boy does he talk about Trump I'm sure he talks about him to a therapist God that was so humiliating Trump basically said you're only useful when you talk about how wonderful I am and Tim just had to sit there and smile I mean who knew Trump also like to grab him by the [Applause] balls so okay Donald Trump tell us why he'd be a good vice president and you make it even more humiliating the one thing that always surprises me is that the VP Choice has absolutely no impact it's whoever the president is it just [Applause] seems always remember Tim no one cannot matter quite like you can't now get out there and show the world nothing now one thing Trump did have going for him was that it seemed like Joe Biden would be going into the general election facing impeachment over his son's business dealings and if you've been watching Fox News you would know that the case against Biden was a slam dunk thanks to one of their GOP star Witnesses just listen to Fox News anchor and human polo shirt Jesse Waters the highly credible FBI informant says that the burisma executive who allegedly bribed Joe Biden has audio recordings of Joe and of Hunter one of the FBI's top informants a guy with impeccable credentials a great tracker record the highly credible multilingual extremely trustworthy longtime confidential FBI informant wow highly credible extremely trustworthy multilingual proficient at Excel a good Tipper a generous lover always puts the seat down this guy is Rock Solid bulletproof impeachment case closed in a new court filing federal prosecutors allege one of the FBI's own longtime informants spun bogus tales about President Biden and his son Hunter after meeting with Russian intelligence officials Alexander smirnov was arrested Wednesday charged with lying about financial ties between the president his son Hunter and the Ukrainian Energy company barisma allegations that have been Central to the Republicans impeachment push yeah Not only was this guy lying about Joe Biden getting bribes the FBI says that he was also working with Russian intelligence yeah Russia again can we please just get a new storyline just once I want to hear that like Bhutan is meddling in our election just to mix things up I mean didn't we just find out that aliens are real maybe they want to get in on this know so the impeachment case against Biden just took a big hit although it wasn't that strong to begin with I mean it's like saying when Jimmy Carter entered hospice he blew his chances of making the NBA so now that prosecutors say this guy is a liar working with Russian intelligence surely Jesse a responsible journalist is taking it upon himself to apologize and make the necessary Corrections everyone who Blows the Whistle on the Biden Syndicate or is connected to it has been arrested what does that tell you Joe Biden's a Smooth Operator informants business partners whistleblowers they're all paying a price but the Biden family has never paid a price you got to hand it to the big guy he's getting away with it that was an interesting way to say I'm sorry I made a mistake but I personally would not have responded to this by accusing Biden of arresting his enemies but hey every news outlet has different standards some issue Corrections Jesse issues an all Cap's Facebook comment that's a beauty of free speech you can say whatever you want out of your big dumb mouth the idea that we have biological boys playing in girl Sports it is the women's issue of our time really Nikki that's the women's issue of our time not abortion access or equal pay or even how to part your hair so teens don't bully you never thought I'd say this but Nikki Haley is so bad at knowing what women actually want I think maybe her husband should order for her at restaurants so most of her policies aren't more moderate than Trump and if you ask her she herself doesn't identify as a moderate on the campaign Trail Haley has made it very clear that she says she's not a moderate I have been a conservative fighter all my life I was a Tea Party candidate when I became governor and we passed one of the toughest illegal immigration laws in the country we passed pro-life bills we took on the unions and we took on Obama when it came to the unions the Syrian refugees and everything in between guys she says she's not a moderate believe women so again if she doesn't say she's a moderate and her policies aren't moderate why is everyone calling her a moderate I guess it could be her demeanor she's certainly the only candidate speaking at her moderate volume you got Trump screaming so loud AT&T satellites are exploding and then you got Biden at every press conference whispering to the Ghost of Christmas path just using a proper inside voice is going to seem like a breath of fresh air but that can't be all of it when it comes down to it there's only one real difference between Nikki Haley and Donald Trump that's getting her this label do I think Joe Biden is the legitimate president yes wow what a reasonable middle-of the road answer the man who won the election won the election but that's where we're at that is the big split in the Republican party today do you think Joe Biden won the election or did you take a [ __ ] on Nancy Pelosi's [Applause] desk but the media is not used to discussing democracy versus fascism they're used to discussing left versus right so they put Donald Trump on the far right and any body who didn't who didn't storm the capital becomes a moderate but that means that any Republican no matter what their views are gets labeled as a moderate just because they believe in democracy like Georgia Governor Brian Kemp he's been called the most conservative governor in Georgia's history but he also doesn't think the election was stolen so now people call him a moderate or Liz sheney she denies climate change she's anti-abortion and she loves bombing other countries just as much as her dad yeah she's the nepo [Applause] bomber she loves bombing other countries so much she thought Oppenheimer was the first season of an ABC sitcom but because she says that Trump lost guess what she's called you've got Liz Cheney being a you know a female voice in the Republican Party demanding a a more moderate approach the thoughtful Pro Constitution Republicans likely is Cheney and you might be wondering why does it even matter so what if the media mistakenly calls some conservatives moderates sometimes I call my husband my ex-boyfriend's name it's fine he barely notices he left me but it does matter because the word moderate means much more than just believing Joe Biden won the election most people still think that it means not extreme or willing to compromise compromise so when the media attaches this label to candidates who support abortion bans and endless Wars that makes those beliefs sound moderate but they're not and the media should not be labeling them as moderates just because they passed the low bar of not overthrowing the government I'm sorry I'm sorry if I'm getting emotional about this but I just believe that having biological conservatives competing in moderate sports that is the women's issue of our [Applause] [Music] [Applause] time
