Trump Just Can't Get Over Biden

Featuring: Jon Stewart, Desi Lydic, and Stephen Colbert

Only 81 days left until the election— and today is National Relaxation Day! Hi, I’m Geoff Plitt, and welcome to What You Need to Know, the brief, weekly newsletter where I share the best comedy videos I’ve seen all week. It will always be free, and you’re welcome to become a friend by following me on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every week.

And now, the videos you came for:

1. I’m so glad Jon Stewart is still on the air. In this clip, Jon covers Donald Trump thinking he was cruising to victory against Joe Biden, Trump's half-hearted attempts to adjust to the new challenge of Kamala, and he wonders if Trump is hatching a devious plan to help Biden take back the nomination, January 6th style:

2. More from The Daily Show with the amazing Desi Lydic, who tackles Donald Trump’s glitchy interview with Elon Musk on X, Trump announcing plans to close the Department of Education, and Donald’s new celebrity crush:

3. Colbert has also been great lately. Here he skewers the Musk/Trump livestream, jokes about Trump renting a plane that belonged to Jeffrey Epstein, and Barack Obama’s summer playlist:

4. And one more from Colbert, on Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz pulling huge crowds that Trump cannot comprehend:

Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend.
