Reacting to Trump’s comments about John McCain (who spent six years in a Vietnamese prisoner camp) not being a war-hero on Monday’s episode, Stewart said ‘What the f*** is wrong with him?’

Trump, who made the comments over the weekend during a speech at the conservative Family Leader summit in Iowa also went on to explain why he though John McCain was not a war-hero, saying “He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured.”

Mimicking that, Stewart said Trump must feel the same way about cancer survivors. “You know what else, if I may? Just a moment. And fuck cancer survivors, too. I like people who don’t get cancer. Let me tell you something: I like winners. Those are the people whose bodies don’t suffer from an uncontrollable division of abnormal cells attacking their organs.”

Moving on to respond to Trump’s admission that his ‘hair is fine’ on ABC’s This Week after telling co-host Martha Raddatz that he’s getting tired of people ‘constantly attacking’ his hair, Stewart said, “First thing’s first, your hair is not fine.”

Towards the end of the episode Jon Stewart also had a request for Donald Trump.

“Don’t flame out now,” Stewart said, reffering to Trump’s antics.

“I gotta squeeze out three more weeks of this shit.” he added.
