Summary

Jon Stewart measures Trump's weight on the authoritarian scale. Between the president's refusal to correct the wrongful deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to his incompetence on a variety of issues, Donald's dictatorship isn't looking very healthy. Award-winning actor and comedian, Ramy Youssef joins to talk about the new animated series he co-created called “#1 Happy Family USA” and how the series, which follows a Muslim family trying to navigate post-9/11 America, resonates in Trump’s second term. They also discuss his favorite parts about making an animated show, the family members who inspire some of the characters, and how the word “Islamaphobia” kind of lets Islamaphobes off the hook.
