[0:39](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=39) You hear that? You hear it? Still got that You still feeling that weird thing that what do they call it? HOPE. still on your phone uh gloat scrolling. Are you still doing that? Well, may I be the first to add another compilation to your for you page? Uh it's a short film. Uh believe the Nelson the great Nelson Muntz TITLED can't sugarcoat it. Republicans got spanked. [1:19](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=79) It was an ass kicking. Weak ass Republicans. You just got your asses tonight. You got punished deservedly so. [1:27](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=87) None should be spared from blame. Starting at the top, Donald Trump destroyed the Republican party. [1:33](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=93) We stood for nothing and got run over. Useless, pathetic, and downright stupid bunch ofinging Guys, guys, guys, just take a breath. Repeat after me. I am deporting my anger, deporting my rage. You know, uh uh one analysis stood out as to why Donald Trump lost this election. I think it's worth highlighting. It's from former Trump enabler and noted Putin sexual Tucker Carlson. A lot of men who voted for Trump two years ago imagined that this was a masculine, vigorous leader. Wait a second. Kind of seems a little bit more like a old woman than an alpha male, does he? [2:41](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=161) You get him, girl. The only thing we alpha males hate more than running out of zen is a catty Woo. [2:55](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=175) I'm sorry, Tucker. Continue to tell us what real men hate about Trump. Uh, now, and perhaps if you could punctuate that critique with the most, I don't know, alpha male noise you can muster. Here's a guy who's vain and venal and indecisive. He's dancing to YMCA. [3:27](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=207) Wow, that laugh pairs well with any masculine thing you can say. Honey, take the kids inside. I reckon these fellas might be looking for some trouble. Meanwhile, while the rest of MAGA is in some kind of Mexican standoff for people who don't like Mexicans, Donald Trump headed over to the newly magified CBS for a little self soothing with one of 60 Minutes new correspondents, a religious conservative by the name of Ross Doutat. We have created we have created wealth at a level that our country has never seen before in [4:24](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=264) including for yourself. Was that young man? Was that sass? Did the new magnified CBS 60 Minutes just deliver sass to Donald Trump? I think you're supposed to. Yes. And not yes, but [4:51](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=291) there's a Forb story that said that your net worth, maybe it's changed with the stock market recently, but your net worth went up by $3 billion. [4:59](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=299) Well, since you since you returned to Okay, you ready? So, everyone's my net worth did not go up by $3 billion. I think I'm going to enjoy this. I did not come into this interview thinking uh I'm going to enjoy this. But now as I am watching this, I am thinking to myself, I am going to enjoy this. Let me prepare the table for the feast we are all about to enjoy. As regular viewers of our program know, Donald Trump has a somewhat high regard for his own financial acumen. In fact, not 20 minutes prior in this very same interview we are watching, Donald Trump said this. [5:50](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=350) I'm really good at money and finance is probably maybe my best thing. Best better than pool renovation, finance and money. He's better at money than pool. So, let's hear from Trump about the intricacies and sage financial acumen that brought him this $3 billion windfall. [6:17](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=377) I make I have a lot of money and far more than I ever thought I'd have and I guess it's gone up. I don't even know. [6:27](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=387) So, when it's global finance, Trump is Keanu Reeves from the Matrix. But when it's his own $3 billion postelection windfall, he's Keanu Reeves from Bill and Ted. Dude, whoa, I don't Yo, that's a LOT OF MONEY. THE only problem is like my frustration with reporters is I wish someone would like hammer down on this. Trump acts like he's got all this money squirreled away in some index fund and it just magically grew. Meanwhile, since the guy's return to office, he's made $125 million from foreign golf and real estate schemes, $17 million from legal sentiments, $636 million from selling that novelty memecoin. He's gotten $800 million from his World Liberty Financial crypto company. Why can't someone just bring this up to his face? [7:31](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=451) Your son manages or helps manage a cryptocurrency company called World Liberty Financial. [7:37](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=457) You are a You are a co-owner of that company, right? That's correct. Right. This company is also partially owned by investors connected to the government of the United Arab Emirates. I think if I told you that story and it was about the Biden family, if I said Joe Biden is the part owner of a company and it has all of these investments from the Middle East, you would say that sounds corrupt. [8:19](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=499) I'll have what he's having. Woo! Oh my man. First of all, I love that in the middle of that line of inquiry, Trump is like, "Which which which son? Which which one of my sons runs this thing you brought? Is it Lanky Chinless or New Guy? Which which one of these? And second of all, I love that Douat is forcing Trump to compare himself to the Biden crime family. [9:03](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=543) You would say that sounds corrupt, right? Well, he he did have a lot of but you is why is it why is it different? [9:11](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=551) Well, here's tell you why. Because I know nothing about it. My god, Ross, you beautiful bearded bastard. Do you know what you've just done here? Do you have any idea what you just did here? You have made Donald Trump admit that the difference between him and Joe Biden is that Joe Biden is more aware of his surroundings. That's what he did. [9:51](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=591) The difference is I have no idea what happened. And that's when got weird. What do you think happens when you die? [10:09](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=609) You want Trump to answer one of the great philosophical questions of our existence? He doesn't even know where money comes from. [10:18](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=618) But uh let him answer. What do you think happens to Donald Trump when you die? You mean where I go? [10:23](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=623) Exactly. Well, I'm a religious person, so in theory, I go to heaven. Do you think you're going to heaven? [10:28](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=628) Uh, I hope so. I don't want to go to hell. You know, uh, you know, that's not how hell works, right? It's not, uh, you check your preference like fish or steak, you know, first choice, safety school kind of a thing. I I think the whole heaven hell thing is connected to behavior and sometimes something savior-ish. A and the interviewer did his best to see if Trump could even meet the bare minimum of requirements for eternal grace. [11:05](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=665) Let's say you pass away. You're entering the next life. And all you have to do to enter paradise is feel love and forgiveness for James Comey, Nancy Pelosi, anyone who you have expressed hate for over the years. Do you think you can do it, [11:34](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=694) my brother? Oh, he said this is a gimme putt. YOU JUST WALK RIGHT JUST RIGHT IN THE CUP. THIS ONE'S for eternity. A grain of forgiveness for an ocean of bliss. It's heaven. The whole The whole place is nothing but ballrooms. It's just it's just heaven. It's just all ballrooms as far as the eye can see. And as Trump answers the question, I have to give the greatest congratulations and prompts to the artistic choice. 60 Minutes made for when to cut away from the interview and go to commercial for maximum dramatic impact. [12:23](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=743) Can I can I be honest? I probably cannot do that now because I do hate some of my enemies and I always will. [12:37](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=757) Oh No, they didn't. OH That is some EENEA SCROOGE ON THAT. I hate my enemies. 60 MINUTES DIRECTED BY BERGMAN. NOW, is there a sound that is any more of an ominous portant of the fate that awaits Donald Trump? [13:15](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=795) Touche. Now, Trump might not be willing to forgive his enemies, but there was one issue that he was unusually circumspect about. [13:24](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=804) Do you think immigration hurt you in the midterm? Do you think the crack? I think it both helped and hurt. [13:29](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=809) So, you think your deportation policy went too far? It was too tough. I think it might be too tough. Yeah. It may be a few years too late, but it sounds like Trump is ready to find some common ground on immigration, and we should welcome that. [13:45](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=825) Breaking news. The president just announcing Steven Miller will be the new White House chief of staff. [13:58](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=838) Very interesting. Before the show, I mentioned to the audience, this is true. I said, you know, you're going to see some clips you might not like them. Please try not to boo. We got some jokes written off all the clips. They they couldn't resist. Literally, I And in some ways, I don't blame them. This is enttrapment. I I I don't know what it it is. I I don't know what the opposite of a honeypot is, but I trapped them. So, I mean, you're going to go with Stephen. You just said you went too far with with deporting landscapers and maids. Steven Miller wants to eat all those people and you're going to make him chief of staff. No, no, no, no, no. that not before we interview him. We don't know. [14:48](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=888) We don't know if he's Why did I bring another pen out? All right. You have a pen. This isn't some easy no-show patronage job that you can jam any into like your cabinet. The chief of staff. You You'll catch up later. The chief of staff has to hold the fort down while you're picking out chandeliers. All right. Who wants to name the first qualification required for the job? [15:16](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=916) One of the roles of the chief of staff is is to have a relationship with the president where you can tell him the tough news, the hard news, uh provide constructive criticism. [15:26](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=926) He's the person who you're trusted to tell you things that you don't want to hear. [15:30](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=930) I get it. Not a sick fan. You don't want a sick fan. Uh Mr. Miller, is that a role that you're comfortable in? [15:35](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=935) Thank you, President Trump, FOR BEING THE GREATEST PRESIDENT IN AMERICAN HISTORY. This man saved America. He saved the Republican party from the ash heap of history. And I pledge to you, Mr. President, my absolute loyalty, my unwavering commitment, and my total devotion. [15:56](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=956) I'm going to put that down as a no. What's the level of filty that goes beyond sloppy Um, and by the way, what what kind of Transylvania is I pledge my total devotion and absolute loyalty? Cuz I I do think I've heard the phrase before. [16:19](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=979) I'm loyal to you, master. I'm your slave. I give you my allegiance, master. I pledge myself to you, body and soul. [16:28](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=988) I swear now and always. Oh, command me, Lord. I will do whatever you ask. Good. I got to say, Trump does look pretty good here. All right. So, he's not going to be a hard truth kind of guy, but I'm sure Miller has other qualities that make him a good chief of staff. What else do you need for this job? [17:05](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1025) If there is calm at the center, if there is steadiness at the center, there's calm that radiates throughout the whole team. [17:11](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1031) Oh, that okay, that makes sense. A good chief of staff is emotionally grounded, projects a cool rationality that can calm the ship of state. Mr. Miller, does that sound uh Oh, it just roll the tape. [17:21](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1041) Are you trusting the numbers of dictatorship? I am trusting the fact that Kla Harris is letting illegal immigrants into this country who are raping and murdering children. [17:29](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1049) Children are dead and you are wasting my time. They're plotting. They're scheming. They're planning. They rape and pillage and murder. Kidnap people, beat them senseless. We are being conquered now. Not a month from now. Not a year from now. Right now. How many more innocent people have to die in pursuit of an open agenda? [17:50](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1070) Calm down a minute. We don't have to yell. QUIET WOLF, YOU'RE INTERRUPTING MILLER'S CALM STEADINESS. You can read all about it in Miller's book, Zen and the Art OF THE CHILDREN ARE DEAD. All right. Well, right now, I'm not sure Miller has the qualities as much as he has quantities, but surprisingly, you're not out of the running. Can Miller pull this thing out? Temperament is is a huge part of it. These are grounded, sensible people who are comfortable in their own skin. [18:29](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1109) Oo, comfortable in his own skin. Survey says last Sunday on Face the Nation, Miller appeared to have used spray-on hair to hide his bald spot. Alas, his hairline was the one border crisis he couldn't solve. Talk about the great replacement. But even though Steven Miller does not seem remotely qualified for this kind of job, he has in fact been given this job. And today, Monday, was his first day. For more on Trump's new chief of staff, we go to the White House with our very own senior White House correspondent, JORDAN CLIPPER. JORDAN, THANKS FOR JOINING. [19:15](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1155) THANKS, JORDAN. Appreciate being here, buddy. Uh, so, so, uh, Jordan, today was his first day. What's the latest, [19:23](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1163) John? Today was Steven Miller's first Monday as chief of staff, and it was mostly administrative duties. getting a new picture for his ID badge, changing his email signature, being briefed on his new responsibilities. [19:36](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1176) I'm sorry, George. Jordan. Uh uh I don't want to uh what what what is that behind you? [19:46](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1186) It's the White House, John. No, no, no, no. The There is a giant glowing eye. Oh. Oh, that. [19:55](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1195) Yeah. Not really sure what it is. All I know is if I make eye contact with it, I foresee my own death. Masturbation accident, John. Not pretty. [20:09](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1209) Doesn't that worry you? Well, it's not the best way to die, but it's not going to keep me out of the game. [20:17](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1217) I I I mean the eye. Ah. Oh, I don't know. With staffing changes comes new cosmetic changes. Aside from that, it's just another day at the White House because they really want to hit the ground running this [20:36](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1236) Oh my god, JORDAN. ARE those monkeys? Flying monkeys. Yeah. Uh but like I was saying, the first week is critical to establishing tone for the chief of staff. [20:46](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1246) But where where did the monkeys come from? The darkened horizon, John. Heralded by a banshee death whale. It appears they have made this realm their own. What? Where are they headed? [20:57](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1257) Oh, John, that's up to them. Now, Miller might be a little bit more interested. [21:02](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1262) They're gone. They're gone. Jesus. Oh my god. Thank God they're gone. Oh, what are they carrying? [21:08](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1268) WHAT ARE THEY CARRYING? YEAH, THEY'RE CARRYING CRYING CHILDREN, JOHN. Or maybe they're small adults. I don't want to speculate. [21:14](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1274) Anyway, Miller had a 2:00 meeting today. WHAT ARE THEY TAKING THE CHILDREN, JORDAN? [21:18](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1278) IT'S UP TO THE MONKEYS, JOE. OH MY GOD. NOW, you know what? A fun little known White House tradition is picking out stationery. Every chief of staff gets to do it. And Steven Miller's been looking for it. [21:29](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1289) Snowing there now. Ash, John. Volcanic ash. You know, now that I smell it, it could be monkey feces. Uh, one of them got me good this morning. Felt like he was really aiming the thing at me. [21:45](https://reclip.me/podcast/the-daily-show/trump-hopes-for-heaven-on-60-minutes-and-stephen-miller-becomes-chief-of-staff-the-daily-show/transcript?t=1305) Jordan, what the hell is that? Are you okay? Yeah. that says some sort of call to prayer, you know, but for demon stuff. All I know is that when it plays, we head towards the reflecting pool and begin speaking in tongues. Anyway, the eternal waters beckon me. John, stay safe.
