Summary
Jordan Klepper covers Trump calling a reporter a "dumb person" over questions about his ballooning ballroom project and dives into the president's CEO-spangled boys' trip to a major summit in China. Plus, while Trump is away overseas, MAGA pops off on Don Jr. and Eric’s Trump Mobile phone company for failing to fulfill its orders for roughly 600,000 people. The Constitution forbids Trump from being elected president again, but that hasn't stopped him from floating the idea with an endless stream of "jokes" about a 2028 run. Charlamagne Tha God looks at how Republicans are giving Trump cover by shrugging off his third-term talk as playful trolling, all while refusing to state whether they think he's bound by the 22nd Amendment. Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist and best-selling author, sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss alien etiquette and his new book, "Take Me to Your Leader: Perspectives on Your First Alien Encounter." They talk about what the Pentagon files mean for the reality of UFOs, leaving flat-earthers at home for your first extraterrestrial encounter, what movies and pop culture are getting wrong about alien depictions, and whether intelligent alien life would be interested in meeting Donald Trump. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
