Summary

Jon Stewart mocked Donald Trump’s reaction to the war plan leak, accusing him of exhibiting “quick onset dementia” 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 “crazy arrogance” of officials involved in the chat, calling the situation a major national security blunder.

    This is the faux-progressive version of “Did he say Thank You?”

    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.
