“Daily Show” host Desi Lydic used her Tuesday monologue to pounce on President Donald Trump for talking about the “power of the nuclear weapon” as several children surrounded him at the White House.
“We can’t let Iran have a nuclear weapon,” said the president before turning to a child standing next to him during an Oval Office signing ceremony. “You might be too young for this.”
“The Daily Show” host quipped, “No, they’re not too young. I’m sure they’ve already seen the ‘Paw Patrol’ episode where they drop a ballistic missile on Humdinger.”
Lydic questioned why Trump would bring up “nuclear war” in front of kids during the Oval Office photo-op, one where he signed an executive order to reinstate the presidential fitness test.
“If there was ever an event where it was important to stick to the topic at hand, it’s the one where you’re surrounded by small children. You understand that, right?” the comedian asked.
