Jon Stewart said he knows what “Donald Trump’s whole plan” with his big trade war is, sarcastically celebrating “Liberation Day” as the day when “Jesus rose from the tomb and raised prices on Honda Civics by $2,000 a car.”
On Thursday’s The Weekly Show podcast taped Wednesday, Stewart quipped with fake enthusiasm for the announcement of Trump’s tariff plan, “I don’t know how you traditionally celebrate with your families, but Liberation Day was always, always big. I may go down to Times Square today and see soldiers kissing nurses and see the people throwing their hats in the air. Three cheers for Liberation Day!”
But the whole point of the chaotic nature of the plan’s rollout, Stewart said, more seriously, is the “unpredictability.”
