‘Daily Show’ Reveals Trump’s Unusual Fascination with Kamala Harris

In the aftermath of Donald Trump’s chaotic interview with Elon Musk, recurring Daily Show host Desi Lydic has plenty of questions for the former president. Chief among them: does Trump have a new crush on his political opponent, Kamala Harris?

Lydic played the audio of Trump discussing Harris’s recent picture on the cover of TIME Magazine. Trump commented, “She looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live. It was a drawing. And actually, she looked very much like a great first lady, Melania. But of course, she’s a beautiful woman. So we’ll leave it at that.”

“Ooh, someone has a crush,” Lydic responded.

“Where did this come from?” she asked. “Did he have a sex dream about Kamala that he just can’t shake and now everything feels different?”

She speculated jokingly, “He can’t focus on anything. He’s just going through TIME Magazine looking for a centerfold.”

Lydic found a humorous bright side in Trump’s admission: “I think we finally found the one thing Trump is incapable of lying about. If he thinks someone is hot, he’ll say they’re hot. He’ll lie about winning an election, but he has deep respect for the sanctity of bangability. That’s noble.”

Earlier in her Tuesday monologue, Lydic also commented on Trump’s apparent lisp and slurred speech throughout the interview, saying, “What is happening in his mouth? I know the guy’s big on slurs, but this is next level.”

She also addressed some right-wing pundits’ claims that the interview’s many issues—from its 40-minute delay to Trump’s speech irregularities—were the result of deep state interference.

“If there’s a deep state trying to silence Donald Trump: you suck at your job, okay?” Lydic remarked. “Because he is the opposite of silent. There is no one more unsilent than Donald Trump right now.”

Lydic turned to the camera and said, “Hey, deep state, look at me. Look at me. Do better.”
