1:25 am
- huh? - don't you see, kyle? i don't get it! token, i get it now. i don't get it. i've been trying to say that i understand how you feel, but i'll never understand.l i'll never really get how it feels for a black person to have somebody use the "n" word.have sm i don't get it. - now you get it, stan. yea - yeah, i totally don't get it! ♪ get up, come on get down with the sickness ♪ ♪ come over me ♪ ♪ ♪ >> announcer: from chicago... the city named after that broadway musical... it is "the daily show"'s "indecision 2024:" the democratic national convention with your host, desi lydic! [cheers and applause] ♪ ♪
1:26 am
[cheers and applause] >> desi: welcome to "the daily show!" i'm desi lydic, and we are in chicago! [cheers and applause] oh, i love this city! i am seeing so many famous chicago places from movies and tv! i ate at the restaurant from "the bear"... [cheers and applause] i went to the museum from "ferris bueller"... [cheers and applause] and tonight after the show, i'm going to go rob the house from "home alone!" chicago's the best! [cheers and applause] but of course, we're here for the democratic national convention. and last night was so jam packed with speakers, that even music legend james taylor got bumped for time. yeah. but good news:
1:27 am
we've got him on our show tonight! [cheers and applause] yes. james taylor will be here! but first, let's get right into our coverage of "indecision 2024!" [cheers and applause] ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] it is day two of the dnc! all of the delegates are gathered from across the country to participate in this most hallowed and sober-minded democratic process. so let's go live with our own ronny chieng! [cheers and applause] ronny, a lot of major players there tonight. who are you talking to on the
1:28 am
ground? you got barack obama? bernie sanders? doug emhoff? >> no one, desi. no one would talk to me at all. it's like they're not even taking me seriously. >> desi: why do you think that is? >> it's pretty obvious. duh! racism. >> desi: yes, yes, definitely racism. thank you, ronny. ronny chieng, everyone! [cheers and applause] okay. that was immensely unhelpful. so let's go back to night one. last night was all about president joseph retirement biden. and everyone came forward to toast the man of the evening, including a surprise appearance from the woman who's been taking measurements in his office, kamala harris. >> and i want to kick us off by celebrating our incredible president, joe biden. we are forever grateful to you. [cheers and applause] >> for president biden's
1:29 am
lifetime of achievement, we owe him a great debt of gratitude. >> thank you to joe biden. >> thank you, joe. >> thank you, joe. >> thank you, joe, and god bless you. we love you. [crowd chanting "we love joe!"] >> desi: aww, that is so nice. even nancy pelosi was chanting "we love joe," and she's the one who pushed him out of the race! it's like the iceberg waving goodbye to the titanic. [cheers and applause] "bye! thanks for everything!" now before president biden came out to speak, we got to hear a powerful speech from hillary clinton. [cheers and applause] yes, hillary clinton, the former secretary of state, and the reason you have a trauma
1:30 am
response every time you hear "this is my fight song." she made a case for kamala harris while making the case against donald trump. although, there was one moment where she also sort of... became him? >> the first person to run for president with 34 felony convictions. as vice president -- [crowd chanting] as vice president, kamala sat in the situation room. [crowd chanting "lock him up"] [cheers and applause] >> desi: well, well, well. looks like the lock-them-up-ee has become the lock-them-upper. look at that smile. that's the smile of a woman going, "i get it now. sometimes it feels good to be
1:31 am
bad." [laughter and cheering] i thought hillary's whole speech was very moving. in fact, she killed it. although, it will be ruled a suicide. [cheers and applause] on the other hand, over in the right-wing media world, they had a major complaint. >> hillary clinton. she's the most joyless person i think was ever walked on this earth. that speech of just like her kind of, like, stalinist negative half screaming to the crowd. >> desi: come on. criticizing hillary for being joyless? why don't you go post a harambe meme on vine, you 2015 piece of shit! [cheers and applause]
1:32 am
but if conservatives hate hillary not smiling, i'm sure they'll love kamala, who was all smiles last night. >> kamala harris came out on the stage. all the laughing. it's like she got into the sherry or something. >> desi: come on, guys. hillary doesn't smile enough, kamala smiles too much. you know what? you don't get an opinion on this. okay? you get to control one hole on women's bodies, not two! and you picked one already! [cheers and applause] women can't win! this right here is exactly why i'm going to have that plastic surgery where they remove your mouth entirely. it's just easier. it's just easier. but let's move on, because remember, this is joe biden's night. and it's actually starting to get a bit late, so let's get to joe biden! >> please welcome former rhode island governor gina raimondo. >> robert garcia. >> dick durbin. >> doris johnson.
1:33 am
>> jesse jackson. >> tony goldwyn. >> steve kerr. >> shawn fain. >> in the words of the great american poet, nelly, "it's getting hot in here." [cheers and applause] >> desi: okay, yeah, i guess we had time for a dad bod strip tease. guys, it's really getting late now, so let's wrap up the other speakers and bring out joe! please welcome congressman jim clyburn. >> raphael warnock. >> kathy hochul. >> alexandria ocasio-cortez. >> jaime raskin. >> jasmine crockett. >> chris coons. >> and i want to talk with you for just a few minutes. [laughter and applause] >> desi: jesus christ! is this still going on?? no disrespect to chris coons,
1:34 am
but [bleep] chris coons. it's almost midnight! mama's got to get to bed. and you know who else has to get to bed? joe biden! for the love of god, let's hear from biden! >> please welcome ashley biden. >> desi: not that biden! it is 11:00. you can't be introducing new bidens right now! do we have to go through the whole family? is commander biden going to come out after this? [cheers and applause] it was so late by the time biden actually got on the stage, even the right-wing pundits were insulted. >> a sitting president pushed out of prime time. >> it was incredibly disrespectful. i mean, no matter your politics or how you feel about the current commander in chief, he is the current president of the united states. >> i almost felt badly for him. >> it was the ultimate slap in the face. >> is this really how you treat someone that you love?
1:35 am
i just think that's disgusting. >> desi: i'm sorry. i'm very confused here. do you guys hate him or not? "joe biden is a corrupt leader of a crime family who stole the presidency, and how dare they keep him up past his bedtime! the nerve!" the nerve!" [cheers and applause] but finally, joe biden took the stage at 11:26 eastern time. which is late, although i will remind the east coast media elites at fox news that there are other time zones. and i'm in one right now! [cheers and applause] i like it here. now you might expect that by 11:26, joe biden would be coming to the stage in pajamas and an
1:36 am
old-timey sleeping hat. instead, he gave his most high-energy performance in a long time. >> putin thought he would take kyiv in three days. three years later, ukraine is still free! [cheers and applause] china would inevitably surpass united states. they haven't noticed. no one is saying that now. he never built a damn thing. who in the hell does he think he is? who does he think he is? not worthy of being a commander-in-chief, period. not then, not now, and not ever. [cheers and applause] >> desi: woo! excuse me! is it getting hot in here? aside from bringing the energy, he also brought all the feels. >> i've made a lot of mistakes
1:37 am
in my career, but i gave my best to you. for 50 years, like many of you, i've given my heart and soul to our nation. and i've been blessed a million times in return with the support of the american people. but i hope you know how grateful i am to all of you. it's been the honor of my lifetime to serve as your president. i love the job, but i love my country more. [cheers and applause] >> desi: this was one of joe biden's finest moments. he was forceful, he was selfless, he was patriotic. honestly, it almost made me wonder if maybe we should go back and...
1:38 am
jesus, nancy! i take it back. i take it back! for more on biden's big night, we go live to troy iwata! [cheers and applause] troy, after biden gave that great speech, do you think democrats might have any regrets? >> no. i mean, no! not at all. they appreciate everything joe biden has done for them, but they're also happy he's gone. and that's why i'm here at the greeting card store. i'm looking for something that says "we love you" while also saying "do not come back." nancy pelosi gave me $1,000 to buy one with just the right message. >> desi: wait, nancy pelosi gave you $1,000 to buy a card? >> yeah. she doesn't know how much things cost. [cheers and applause]
1:39 am
you know, also, i think she thinks i'm her assistant, steve. >> desi: what makes you think that? >> she keeps calling me steve. so anyways, here's one: it says: "thanks for the memories! and just to be clear, we're not going to make any new ones." or there is this one: "you've done so much for us... and we're all good now. thanks!" >> desi: wow, hallmark's making very specific cards. >> yeah. how about this one? it says: "don't cry because it's over. smile because it happened. but just to reiterate -- it's definitely over." >> desi: i don't know, troy, that seems kind of mean. >> yeah. well, here's one! "to my dear president, thank you for your years of service, but what i'm most grateful for is your statesmanlike surrender of power. you will be enshrined in the history of our nation."
1:40 am
[cheers and applause] >> desi: wow, yeah, that one is beautiful. it sounds perfect. >> yet, but it is in comic sans font, so... >> desi: troy, we need you back at the studio. so just pick a card. any card. >> desi: all right, calm down, david blaine. forget the cards. i'll do what i normally do to thank people, and just venmo him $20. >> desi: troy! nancy pelosi gave you $1,000! >> okay, fine. the best i can do is $25. >> desi: troy iwata, everybody! [cheers and applause] when we come back, the best [bleep] news team hits the convention floor. and coming up: the great james taylor! don't go away. [cheers and applause]
