Jon Stewart responds to Trump banning CNN from the White House
Jon Stewart has responded to Donald Trump banning CNN, MS Now, and Politico from the White House.
Donald Trump recently issued a White House ban on several news outlets, including CNN, MS NOW, and Politico — and Jon Stewart has thoughts.
In the Daily Show clip above, the host reacts to footage of the president saying "there's something wrong with a country that can allow people to write purposely negative stories."
"Have you tried presidenting better?" responds Stewart. "You could ban the press, or you could be a better f***ing president? I mean, give the press something to work with. I mean here's a positive story: I never thought my car could take $140 worth of gas in such a small tank! I had no idea. Hurrah.
"And not for nothing, have we ever had a president just flat out in the Oval Office come out against the Constitution? What kind of a sick country doesn't allow unlimited warrantless search and seizure? I mean, that's not the North Korea I grew up in."
