Summary

Jon Stewart mocked Donald Trump’s reaction to the war plan leak, accusing him of exhibiting ā€œquick onset dementiaā€ whenever faced with accountability.

Stewart noted Trump’s aloof response to the security breach, where classified war plans were leaked via a Signal group chat mistakenly including a journalist.

Stewart criticized Trump’s repeated denial pattern, comparing it to previous instances where Trump distanced himself from controversial actions.

He also condemned the ā€œcrazy arroganceā€ of officials involved in the chat, calling the situation a major national security blunder.

    This is the faux-progressive version of ā€œDid he say Thank You?ā€

    Edit: maybe I misconstrued your sentiment. In the linked clip, he did not talk about the bombing of Yemen, only Trump feigning (or legitimately claiming, although I doubt it) ignorance.

      I was just hoping that he talked about the important part—the bombing—in addition to the unimportant part—the text message.
