'The Daily Show' host Jon Stewart mocked Donald Trump's Gettysburg speech on the latest episode: 'Is he talking about a Civil War battle or a horse giving birth?'
The "Daily Show" host also mocked the former president appearing to fall asleep in court: "Imagine committing so many crimes you get bored at your own trial."
“Our former president and illustrious historian, Donald J. Trump, spoke near one of America’s most hallowed battlefields,” Stewart began. “And if you thought Lincoln consecrated Gettysburg with his soaring rhetoric… Well, buckle up.” Stewart joked that Trump’s statement was "plagiarized, almost directly, from my seventh-grade book report, ‘Gettysburg, Wow.'"
Stewart then jokingly came to Trump’s defense:"To be fair to the former president, he does have a lot on his mind right now," he said, before pivoting to a discussion about Trump’s latest criminal trial, regarding alleged hush money payments made toduring his first presidential run. The host cut to a CNN broadcast where reporter Maggie Haberman claims Trump appeared to be sleeping during the trial as “his head keeps dropping down and his mouth goes slack.
