Related: About this forumJon Stewart Crashes Colbert’s Show, Becomes Donald Trump
On Thursday nights The Late Show, host Stephen Colbert got a surprise guest in the form of former Comedy Central colleague Jon Stewart.
Stewart showed up to share an important message about the Zadroga Act, which covers medical expenses for 9/11 first responders. Congress has yet to reauthorize the Zadroga act and Stewart has been making the rounds on the late night shows to try shame members of congress who continue to do nothing.
But before Stewart could tell everyone why the Zadroga act is so crucial and how any congressperson who doesnt support it is less than human, Colbert had to interrupt him to remind him to Trump up his rhetoric because The media wont pay attention to anything at all unless you are Donald Trump.
Colbert then brought out his Trump wig (which he keeps around for times he wants to say anything important) and put it on Stewart and along with some make-up (or rather, Cheeto dust) to make Stewart more closely resemble the Republican front-runner.
And finally, Stewart brings the noise and brings the Trump.

I get the feeling we wouldn't be able to tell Jon's Trump from his Andrew Dice Clay.

Jon did an amazing "Trump", got the message across about the importance of this legislation, hope it does the job. Meanwhile, why doesn't Congress do its job? Oh, never mind, we know the answer to that.
What a blessing Stephen and Jon are to all of us!
Big K&R, and thanks for posting.
Peace.

That's two days in a row that I've posted videos mocking Trump so I'm on a roll.
