As Colbert pointed out, Trump recently complained on Twitter about the barrage of jokes at his expense on late-night TV, even wondering, “Should we get equal time?” While Colbert deadpanned an answer – “No” – he nevertheless brought out Stewart to balance his own anti-Trump material. However, the former Daily Show host inevitably struggled with to say anything more laudatory than, “Donald Trump is not a cannibal.”
Elsewhere, Colbert cracked: “Last week, we learned that Donald Trump’s own Secretary of State called him a ‘fucking moron.’ Not only is that an insult, he gave away Trump’s Secret Service code name.” Stewart attempted to soothe the burn, but instead stammered, “Given the choice between having hot lava poured into my pee-hole and Donald Trump being president … I choose the latter.”
Stewart also recorded a quick web-exclusive video, in which he was inducted into The Late Show’s “Trump Attacked Me on Twitter” Hall of Fame. Trying to keep his emotions in check, Stewart joked: “You know, all the teachers would say, ‘You can be anything you want, you can be president.’ And I said, ‘Well, I don’t know if I want to be president, but I’d like to be someone that the president called a ‘pussy’ on Twitter at 2:30 in the morning.'”
