Jon Stewart Breaks Down Trump’s ‘60 Minutes’ Interview: ‘Young Man, Was That Sass?’

Jon Stewart mocked Donald Trump’s interview with Ross Douthat on “60 Minutes”, focusing on the interviewer’s challenges and Trump’s responses. The segment matters because Stewart used the exchange to question Trump’s claims about his wealth and his grasp of money and finance.

Douthat noted that his own net worth had not risen by $3 billion, prompting Trump to rebuff him. Stewart contrasted Trump describing finance as his “best thing” with saying he did not know whether his wealth had increased; he also joked about questions on death and forgiveness. The article says Trump named James Comey and Nancy Pelosi as enemies he could not forgive, after which the programme cut to a commercial break.
