‘Donald Trump’ Interrupts The Daily Show to Defend Himself

Donald Trump paid a timely visit to “The Daily Show” yesterday to celebrate his first 100 days in office, and, as Noah said, “his first eighteen-hundred holes played.” Anthony Atamanuik gave Alec Baldwin a run for his money with an impression that’s a bit more flamboyant, and a skin tone that plagiarizes directly from Frito-Lay. He called Trevor Noah “Travis” throughout the segment, explained how the Mexicans will pay for the wall (“they don’t have to pay with money”), and expounded on his philosophy on “tipping”.
The best moment of the segment comes before Trump’s entrance, with Noah delivering a withering deadpan in response to footage of the President defending his wall on CNN by saying, “It will have an effect on human trafficking, it’s a problem that’s probably worse than any time in the history of this world”.
What form will this border-project take? Will it be a wall? A fence? Maybe a blimp? The answers are below.
"Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief"
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
