Welcome to the Daryl Show. My name, Miyamo. John Stewart, great show for you tonight. Later on, we'll be talking to New York City mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani. We'll be talking... We will be discussing his plans to turn the city into a communist hellscape! Where crime is legal and subway rats receive universal basic income. I haven't had a chance to read the platform. I'm just assuming.

But first, our current president, Donald Josephine Trump, is currently on a tour of Asia where he will be meeting with allies, such as the new Japanese prime minister, and rivals, such as Xi Jinping. It's a crucial moment with huge ramifications for the current tariff regime in this country and for the peace and security of the entire region itself. First stop, Kuala Lumpur.

So let's dance, mother . He loves this shit. I love at the end, he was like, eh, eh, eh, and then he just goes like, eh? That's all I got. He loves the red carpet. He loves the hats. None of it makes any... They're playing the theme song to Hawaii Five-0. None of it made any sense. But he loves the pomp, and he loves the circumstance. That's why... He loves going overseas.

That's what they give him overseas. Ladies and gentlemen, it's... It's what he loves. Look what we do to him here. This is what he tweeted right before leaving on the trip. I want to thank Donald Trump for working like a dog for no money to save a country that doesn't appreciate his sacrifice. I hope you're happy, America. Look at this poor son of a bitch.

207.279 - 239.155 Jon Stewart

He just wants... He just wants to save his country. And all he asks for in return is a little bit of total unquestioning fealty and a few billion dollars in influence money and new forms of currency. This poor bastard. Hey, buddy. Want to go to Malaysia?

244.564 - 244.925

Yeah, there we go.

244.945 - 286.715 Jon Stewart

Come on. But what do we do when he comes home? Beef is too expensive. My health care bankrupted me. Where's my abuela? Poor little billionaire president. He hates it here. And why wouldn't he? Everything he does for us, we have a problem with. What's the one thing that we've wanted in this country, for as long as I can remember? An outsized ballroom. I have been talking about this.

287.376 - 335.929 Jon Stewart

Someday I'll grow up and do the cha-cha. Remember the march when we all wore the chandelier hats? No crown molding, no peace. When I say crystal, you say stemware. Crystal. Crystal. I can't believe how well that works. We don't rehearse any of that. How easily fascism comes to America. Chant with me. So we've always wanted a giant ballroom.
