‘Daily Show’ reveals Trump’s strange crush on Kamala Harris

Following Donald Trump’s chaotic X interview with Elon Musk, recurring Daily show host Desi Lydic has plenty of questions for the former president. Chief among them: Does Trump have a crush on his new opponent, Kamala Harris?

She played audio of Trump talking about Harris’ recent cover photo TIME Magazine, in which he said: “She looks like the most beautiful actress who ever lived. It was a drawing. And she actually looked a lot like a great first lady, Melania. But of course she is a beautiful woman. So we’ll leave it at that.”

“Oh, someone’s in love,” Lydic replied.

“Where did that come from?” she asked. “He had a sex dream about Kamala that he just can’t shake and now everything feels different?”

She jokingly speculated: “He can’t focus on anything. Just passing through TIME magazine looking for a centerfold.”

Lydic found the bright side in the revelation: “I think I finally found the one thing that Trump is incapable of lying about. If he thinks someone’s hot, he’ll say they’re hot. He will lie about winning elections, but he has a deep respect for the sanctity of bangability. That is noble.”

Earlier in her Tuesday monologue, Lydic commented on Trump’s apparent limp and slurred speech throughout the interview, saying, “What’s going on in his mouth? I know the guy’s good at insults, but this is next level.”

She also responded to claims by right-wing pundits that many problems with the interview — from its 40-minute delay to Trump’s apparent speech impediments — were the result of “deep state” interference.

“If there’s a deep state trying to silence Donald Trump: You’re bad at your job, okay?” Lydic said. “Because he is the opposite of quiet. There is no one more silent than Donald Trump right now.”

Lydic turned to the camera and said, “Hey, deep state, look at me. look at me Do better.”
