Jon Stewart zeroes in on Trump’s ‘big butts’ fixation -and does not lie - in savage takedown

Jon Stewart skewered President Donald Trump over his repeated remarks about “big butts” in the lead-up to the midterm elections.During at least four rallies this month, the 80-year-old president has marveled at Ohio Senator John Husted’s behind, declaring in Kentucky: “I examined his a**.” He gave the same treatment to Nicki Minaj one week later in Michigan, stating that the pro-Trump rapper has “one hell of a beautiful a**.”“Voters are for some reason fixated on the economy, cost of living, the war in Iran,” Stewart said on Monday’s episode of The Daily Show. “Donald Trump is actually back out there on the campaign trail to make his closing arguments. I imagine the president will be laser focused on the issues that matter most.”The comedian then cut to a montage of Trump discussing derrieres.“I looked at his a**, and I’ve never done that with a man before,” the president said. “His a** was like a big piece of muscle.” Stewart then cut back in: “It’s not like a big piece of muscle. It is literally a big piece of muscle. That is what an a** is. It is literally a big piece of muscle.”‘He’s like Yogi Bear floating towards a pie on a windowsill,’ Stewart said of Trump (The Daily Show)“By the way, don’t feel left out, ladies. Trump’s got plenty of ogle left for you,” the comedian continued.He then played footage of Trump at his October 25 rally in Michigan, attended by Nicki Minaj, who has described herself as the president’s “number one fan.” In the clip, Trump said: “By the way, I looked at one hell of a beautiful a** before, Nicki Minaj…That’s hard to miss…Stand up! That’s hard to miss.”Stewart then paused and stared uncomfortably at the camera before exclaiming: “How the f*** is this real?”“By the way, look at Trump’s face when Minaj is talking,” Stewart said, displaying an image of the president standing behind the “Super Bass” singer. “He’s transfixed, he’s staring at her a**. He’s like Yogi Bear floating towards a pie on a windowsill.”Trump was joined on stage at a Michigan rally by rapper Nicki Minaj, who has described herself as the president’s ‘number one fan’ (Reuters)The Independent has contacted the White House for comment. Trump has previously labeled Stewart “overrated,” an “a**hole” and a “total phony.”The president has hit the campaign trail in a number of states in advance of the midterm elections next week. Multiple polls indicate the Republican Party is poised to suffer steep losses, amid voter frustration over the cost of living and the war in Iran, which has stretched on for seven months with no clear end in sight. Some polls indicate the GOP could lose their majorities in both the House and the Senate.
