“The Daily Show” dedicated an entire 10-minute segment Thursday night to President Trump’s new global tariff plan. “Yesterday Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs across the entire globe — Asia, South America, Narnia, Arendelle, Wakanda, Bachelor Nation,” host Michael Kosta joked. “If you can imagine it, Trump slapped a tariff on it.”
Kosta then tee’d up a reel of news anchors from different networks and programs all reporting on the stock market drops that have occurred this week as a result of Trump’s tariffs. “Economists say we could be on the verge of a recession,” Kosta noted. “So things are looking scary right now.”
