Will Republicans Divorce Trump Over Xi Embrace? Probably Not | The Daily Show Oct 13, 2026

Description

Jon Stewart examines the limits of Republican allegiance to Trump after his weekend of wooing President Xi with granite, helipads, and an exclusive tour of the White House ballroom. Will MAGA loyalists denounce Trump's offer to sell weapons to China, America's supposed enemy, or is their frustration with the president a Susan Collins-style display of feigned outrage? #DailyShow #Xi #China #SusanCollins #GOP #Trump
