Donald Trump is launching something called Trump Accounts, which will essentially gift $1,000 to babies born between 2025 and 2028, investing the money in tax free accounts that are only accessible when the children turn 18 — and The Daily Show has thoughts.
“I didn’t expect this from Donald Trump,” says host Desi Lydic in the clip above. “Mostly the part about where he says you can’t touch something until it turns 18.”
Lydic goes on to recap the launch event, which featured Nicki Minaj as a celebrity guest, admitting the accounts “aren’t the worst idea that either Trump or Nicki has endorsed” before introducing a gameshow-style parody ad that makes “the bigger picture much more clear.”
