A batch of newly surfaced Epstein emails sparks Trump’s fight-or-flight mode, a diversionary DOJ investigation into the Democrats, and a Fox News crash out as pundits try to downplay the Epstein files. While rumors swirl about a jaw-dropping degree of closeness between Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, Jon Stewart urges the GOP to hold their Epstein sleuthing to the same standard as their investigation into the QAnon Pizzagate conspiracy. #DailyShow #JonStewart #Trump #Epstein 0:00 - Jon Stewart's TDS Welcome 0:59 - Epstein Emails Reveal Shocking Information About Trump and "Bubba" 2:46 - Mark Epstein Clarifies Bubba is Not Bill Clinton 4:48 - Trump Has "Nothing to Hide," Asks for Release of Files 6:38 - The President Pivots Epstein Blame to Democrats 10:10 - Trump Distracts From Epstein to Affordability 11:57 - Republicans Downplay Epstein Emails 14:06 - Jon Compares Republicans' Treatment of Pizzagate to the Epstein Emails Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedailyshow Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral About The Daily Show: Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.

The best part about the whole Bubba thing is that nobody is denying it happened... They just said it wasn't Bill Clinton.

I have seen people defend the "blowing" email by saying Ghislaine had a horse called Bubba. How in the name of all that is holy is that better.
