I haven't enjoyed a Daily Show episode like this in a long time. Well worth a watch. Mr. Stewart at his best.

My favorite part was about 19:00, where Jon buries the lede "Beyond the fact that Trump was terrible, the dinner should not have happened at all. In fact, it shouldn't ever happen. Quite frankly, memorializing the collegial and cozy relationship between the press and those that they cover is, at best, a very bad look in normal times. I don't need to see the cops and robbers getting along at a banquet honoring our penal code. You can celebrate the First Amendment without asking your opponent in that fight what he thinks. You already know what he thinks."
