“Daily Show” Slams Trump’s Greed: The Oval Office as a Personal ATM

“Daily Show” correspondent Ronny Chieng unleashed a verbal barrage on President Donald Trump’s audacious exploitation of the Oval Office for personal gain.

Chieng's critique zeroed in on revelations that Trump had invested in publicly traded companies, only to later extol their virtues. Case in point: on February 10, Trump reportedly snagged millions in Dell stock, and just nine days later, he was urging a Georgia crowd to “go out and buy a Dell computer.”

“Wow! Okay, this guy does not give a f**k anymore. They’re gonna have to start replacing the presidential seal with a hashtag ad,” Chieng quipped. “In hindsight, we should have suspected something. I mean, if you’re telling people to buy a Dell computer in 2026, you’re probably doing something illegal. Even the folks at Dell are like, do they still make Dell computers?”

Chieng pointed out that the signs of corruption were glaringly obvious, showcasing a clip from ABC News where Trump dropped the Palantir stock ticker in a Truth Social post shortly after purchasing shares.

“I mean, he’s even putting the stock ticker symbol in his tweet! You know, the way we all casually drop stock symbols into our everyday conversations. Like, ‘Hey, officer, officer. That man stole my iPhone (AAPL),’” Chieng remarked. “Here’s the bottom line. It’s undeniable at this point that Trump has achieved a level of corruption no one has ever imagined before.”
