‘The Daily Show’ mocks Trump’s Epstein friendship with a brutal parody ad

Josh Johnson is on his third day hosting The Daily Show, and the focus is still very much on the Donald Trump/Jeffrey Epstein story — and the fact it’s only getting bigger, despite the president’s best efforts.

“At this point, forget about excuses,” says Johnson. “Trump is going to need psychoactive drugs to get people’s minds off Epstein.”

Cue a parody ad for “Ozempstein”, the “revolutionary new drug from the Trump administration that suppresses the body’s natural urge to know more about Jeffrey Epstein.”

The Daily Show isn’t the only late night show focussing on this story — Stephen Colbert has been going scorched earth on Trump all week.
