Trump: Stewart is 'begging' me to appear on his final show

Source: The Hill

[img][/img]

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that Jon Stewart is “begging” him to appear on the final episode of Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.”

“They have invited me,” Trump told The Hill in an interview. “I like Jon Stewart — I think he’s good. They’re begging me to go on.

“I would do it ... the problem is it looks like pandering. It looks so false and so phony if I do it,” he added.

The left-leaning comedian has spent much of July mocking the billionaire business mogul on his show, most notably his 2016 launch address that featured Neil Young’s 1989 song “Rockin’ in the Free World.”

the people he's made fun of to his last show to give them an opportunity to tell Jon to fuck off. Trump is just one of many and I doubt very much there was any begging involved.

Maybe someone asked him, or someone suggested it. That is usually “begging” in the eyes of the Golden Hamster.

I would say it was an alien, but that would be an insult to aliens.

... he'd say it looked RICH, and YOUTHFUL, and VIGOROUS, and RICH.

To be fair, he may have been right about Rick Perry's glasses looking false and phony.

"I'm VERY rich - let me tell you. And because of that, I can afford the best hair stylists money can buy. So with that sort of reasoning, ya hafta conclude that I have the best hair of anyone on earth! OH! Did I tell you I'm very rich? Cause I am - let me tell you."

That's one way the word 'whoring' can be used as a verb. without offending anyone.

I'm sure he will agree that there are millions of fans of his begging to taste his delicious feces for dessert. Get Trump, fresh from the rump.
