Mary Trump Calls Jon Stewart a 'Danger to Democracy'

Jon Stewart returned to The Daily Show on Monday night after a 9-year hiatus—and Mary Trump has slammed the comedian's take on the upcoming presidential election.
The comedian, who began hosting the satirical news show in 1999 and left in 2015, is presenting the show again on a part-time basis through the 2024 election season. His return follows Trevor Noah's departure in December 2022 and comes amid the series' unsuccessful search for a new permanent host.
During the show, Stewart took aim at President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, mocking both 2024 presidential contenders for gaffes seemingly related to their ages.
