Elon and Trump’s “Alpha” Male Struggle & Putin's "Election" Forecast | The Daily Show

let's get into our ongoing coverage of indecision 2024 Donald Trump has had a good week he sealed the GOP nomination one of his 54 trials was postponed and he just figured out you can Google boobs the man should be on top of the world but some of his close friends in the right-wing media are concerned and I know you have supporters uh friends family they say it's lonely at the top and I'm actually curious is it ever lonely for you what a ridiculous question for a journalist to ask of course he's

not lonely he saw his wife just six months ago Walter kronite over here Trump answered this question the way he answers every question by saying whatever was on the top of his mind at that moment I study history and and I was always told that Andrew Jackson as a president was treated the absolute worst he was just really lambasted and I heard Abraham Lincoln was second but he was in a thing called the Civil War I don't care Andrew Jackson or anybody else nobody has when you think of the the fak

e things nobody's been treated like Trump in terms of badly yeah yes in terms of badly Trump has been treated the badest although maybe Lincoln was treated a little bit worse what with being shot in the head and all but I doubt he was on his deathbed saying at least I didn't have a p tape rumor that's good point and by the way how mistreated could Andrew Jackson have been the man's on the $20 bill I use that bill every day it's the one I give to the homeless I asked for $19 back but that's not t

he point I mean I mean plus back then even if the Press wrote a horrible story about you half the country was illiterate you know honey do you see that article about Andrew Jackson no I can't read I can't read either well then why' we buy this newspaper I mean let's move on let's move on because not all the influential powerful men in the world have been getting such easy questions this week this morning a high-profile deal between two unlikely Partners imploding after a confrontational intervie

w between former CNN anchor Don Lemon and Elon Musk turned 10th during a taping of the new the Don Lemon show that was supposed to debut next week on must platform X hate speeech on the platform is up do you believe that X and you have some responsibility to moderate hate speech on the platform I don't have to answer his question great replacement Theory as it relates to Jewish people do you think that I don't have to answer questions from the reporters Don the only reason I've doing this interv

iew is because you're on the xplatform and you asked for it uh otherwise I would not do interview with this interview hours later lemon says he received a short text from musk that read contract is cancelled oo now to be fair to Elon though you never really expect to hire someone and immediately be asked about the Jewish great replacement Theory usually want to wait for the Christmas party to do that but I'm sorry between Trump and Elon when did all these Macho men become such you know AR aren't

you the ones who complain about the snowflakes and liberal victimhood when Elon bought Twitter he was like this is Free Speech Town Square baby and then some some then anytime somebody criticizes him he's like the Town Square is closed for repairs this is terrible Teddy Roosevelt's critics shot him during a speech and he didn't even go to the hospital which shows one how tough he is and two how terrible healthc care was back then but but look these alpha males today get one tough question and t

hey start whining like my kid when I tell him he can't watch Cars 2 for the eighth time today Daddy it's not fair well you know what else isn't fair son it's not fair that I a grown man know all the words to cars too yeah it's very sad Costa it is very sad let's move on to the big news in the travel industry the guy at Boeing whose job it is to change the days without an incident sign got to stay home from work yet again this morning an American Airlines Boeing Tri 7 traveling from Dallas to Los

Angeles forced to make an emergency landing after report s of mechanical problems this video capturing the moment the plane carrying 249 people touched down at LAX airport with a possible flat tire this comes on the heels of several other incidents on Boeing planes in recent days on Monday hydraulic fluid began leaking from the bottom of this Boeing 7 Boeing failed dozens of FAA audits with nearly a 100 instances of non- compliance after that door plug flew off a 737 max9 in January Boeing what

is going on with you there should be no leaking fluids on planes unless you were the guy on the diarrhea plane he's he's grandfathered in he can leak anywhere he wants at this point Boeing's competitors barely even need PR departments they look so good for doing just the bare minimum Airbus we don't have any screws left over in the bag nice look I have to say at this point I'm just done with Boeing airplanes back to cruise ships for me where nothing bad ever happened well you know who's not wor

ried about Boeing does he me all right yeah a door fell off and there was a leak but guess what the plane still landed Boeing should be advertising that Boeing we forgot some screws but you still made it to Tampa they agree you know what's way less safe than flying taking a car to the airport my driver this morning passed a semi-truck by cutting through a playground so no I'm not worried about Boe the truth is even with the doors falling off air travel is still the safest way to get around so ye

ah I'm going to keep flying I even flew here today from Brooklyn so I don't mind if a door flies off now and then in fact I wouldn't mind if a few more doors flew off if more people were scared of flying I could get through security a hell of a lot faster I've got all the things pre-check Global Entry clear clear plus clear plus with ads and I'm still waiting 15 minutes for a guy to fold up his stroller for the first time in his life and if you disagree too bad because planes are the only game i
