The Daily Show host Jon Stewart tore into President Donald Trump’s “Great Gatsby-themed ode to decadence and hedonism” on Monday night, arguing that “even Jeffrey Epstein would have thought” the event was “a little over the top.”
Reacting to Trump’s controversial Great Gatsby-themed Halloween party at Mar-a-Lago last week, Stewart protested, “Donald Trump doesn’t give a f*ck about even looking like he gives a f*ck at all!”
He added:
On the very night SNAP benefits ended, Trump threw a Great Gatsby-themed ode to decadence and hedonism that even Jeffrey Epstein would have thought was a little over the top. There were dancers, costumes, champagne. A wonderful celebration where the theme was apparently gross income inequality. The slogan of the party as people were losing their food benefits was — I sh*t you not — “a little party never killed nobody.” Did you even read The Great Gatsby?! Spoiler alert, the party killed somebody. Two bodies! How do you not know that? I knew that and I’ve only read the cliff notes. The Great Gatsby is a cautionary tale and it’s the theme for your party?
Stewart noted, “Usually at a time of national suffering, there’s a generally accepted principle in leadership that you at least pretend to feel the pain of the people that you represent. But this president seems to go out of his way to let struggling Americans know that he is doing very well.”
“Your premiums may be going up, tariffs may be shutting down your small businesses, you may be losing your food assistance, but it’ll all be OK because Donald Trump is building a ballroom that looks like the inside of Marie Antoinette’s vagina!” he concluded.
