Jon Stewart Mocks Trump’s Bizarre Signature During ‘Daily Show’ Monologue

Jon Stewart took a break from his usual routine on Monday’s episode of The Daily Show to critique Donald Trump’s signature on an executive order. The comedian questioned the president’s decision to sign a document accelerating the FDA’s review of psychedelic drugs.

“And to be frank, I don’t think Donald Trump should treat that with hallucinogenics anyway,” Stewart said, referencing Trump’s past joke about being depressed. “But if he did, would we even notice? If he took hallucinogenics, he’d be like, ‘They’re eating the cats and dogs right near my beautiful ballroom. By the way, did you know I’m Jesus?’”

While Stewart acknowledged the executive order’s intent, he couldn’t ignore the “weird as s–t” way Trump signed it.

“I don’t mean this as political — but it was weird as shit the way he signed that,” Stewart said. “Like, I’m looking at that signature right now. Does that even say Donald Trump?”

He added, “The last name is longer than his first name. It looks like it says Lynyrd Skynyrd. It doesn’t make any sense. None of this makes sense.”

Stewart then joked about the signature’s legality, saying, “I’m sorry to derail the program. Can we go back? Just play him writing the last name.”

“I swear to God, he doesn’t write Trump,” he continued. “That’s too many letters. I counted, like, 10 letters — unless he’s just adding characters, like this is his Wi-Fi password. It doesn’t say Donald. I would make sure this executive order is even legal, because it appears to have been signed off by David Hasselhoff.”

The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11 p.m. ET on Comedy Central.
