a hundred. tonight's question is from friend of the show paul scheer. so let's take a look. >> larry, if you had to have penises for toes or vaginas for ears, what would it be? keep it 100. ( laughter ) >> that's a good question. >> larry: let's see. i don't know. okay, okay. ears. thanks for watching! good night! >> from comedy central's world
9:48 am
news headquarters in new york, this is "the daily show" with trevor noah. (cheers and captioning sponsored by comedy central applause). >> trevor: welcome to the daily show. thank you so much for tuning in. thank you, everybody, i'm trevor noah. great show for you tonight. we have two guests joining us, connecticut congressman jim himes will be here to talk about gun legislation and congress and musician jack garratt will also be performing. give them a round of applause, everybody. (cheers and applause). >> trevor: but first, first, big congratulations to the new nba champions. the cleveland cavaliers, what a great moment for the city of cleveland, right? what an amazing moment. (cheers and applause). >> trevor: 52 years without a national championship and after next month's gop convention, might go another 52 years without a city. it was a story book ending, lebron returns home to give his
9:49 am
city the title. and in the process, i think he may have picked up a grand new sponsor. clean ex. >> the emotions from lebron james who delivers on his promise to come home and bring a championship. >> [bleep] i set out a goal. and i came back to bring a championship to the stism i poured my heart, my blood, my sweat, my tears to this game. and-- . >> trevor: a-w-w-w. he looks like the cutest, biggest, most dangerous teddy bear ever, dun he? i love how black guys only let themselves show emotion when think win a sports relationship. every other time it is like yeah, man, my pops left when i was young it is what it is. but that's why this high-scoring air hockey means so much to me right now, thank you, jesus, thank you so much. but let's move on now to the presidential race. where one candidate has just taken a big step toward making his campaign great again. >> the big shakeup for the
9:50 am
donald trump campaign just weeks before the republican convention is set to begin. trump campaign's manager corey lewandowski is out. he has been part of trump's innercircle from the very beginning, from even before day one. he is part of that sort of original group of trump supporters who were with him since he came down that escalator at trump tower. >> trevor: yes, the escalator that brought us trump. it almost seems like whoever was on that escalator ride got to be part of the trump campaign it doesn't seem like they were pandz. trump was just riding and going who is this guy, i like his style, i like him, he's on. >> sir, that is the keas later railing. >> yeah, i want him on the campaign. i need more black support, i'll take it. >> circumstances i don't think he. >> hurry, he's getting away, he's getting away! >> so it appears coree lewandowski's grip on power was not as strong as his grip on young female reporters. and i can only imagine what it must have been like for him when
9:51 am
done all trump told him he was offer the campaign. lewandowski probably walked into the conference room. trump was sitting in a big chair behind a mahogany table and trump looked at him and said, corey, your services are no longer necessary. you're a liability to the campaign and need to leave. oh, and one more thing, you're fired up and that will sirve well in the future. oh, an you're fired. now firing his controversial campaign manager as he pivots to the general election may be one of the smartest decisions this entire campaign. and just like mops of trump's other smart decisions, it turns out someone else made it. >> we hear from sources inside the campaign that it really was done ald trump's children who were responsible for the final decision. >> first and fore most, i'm told that it was his daughter daughter ivanka.
9:52 am
>> she said either he goes or i can't do this any more. >> trevor: wow, ivanka with the ultimate up. it's either him or me. i mean when she puts it that way, it's really no choice for donald trump at all. because i mean let's face t he can't fire his daughter. and he can't bang his campaign manager. so-- now there may be many reasons why ivanka wanted to get rid of lewandowski. one of them could be that under his management trump's polls have dropped faster than carly fiorina on a podium, and-- and it's not just in the polls. >> some of those high profile republican lawmakers declined to go anywhere near the latest round of comments if donald trump. >> yesterdays. >> they will duck into offices. >> i know you do. >> cut off interviews. >> i think we're doing questions. >> and they'll avoid uttering his name. >> the majority chip john cornin is done talking about trump until after the election. >> i'm not ifing to be comment on the presidential candidate today. >> it seems like it's now, i
9:53 am
don't want to comment. and just to run out the clock here. welcome to our world. >> trevor: they are looking like idiot ducking into random rooms that is what they are doing, to avoid talking about trump. if i was then, i with make sure i'm carrying something i can eat the entire time. if the reporters jump out and say sir, can we ask you about done alz trump, what do you think about trump. i will just be like-- senator, what are you eating it's a dick, i'm eating a-- i didn't want to-- a dick. >> the truth s it's easy to see why republicans don't want to be associated with donald trump. i mean he keeps giving them reasons. just like last week. when he let everyone know that he is getting the bands back together. >> i called for a ban after san bernardino and was met with great scorn and anger. but many are saying that i was right to do so. and although the pause is temporary, we must find out what is going on. we have to do it.
9:54 am
>> we have to stop people from pouring into our country. we have to stop it. until we find out what the hell is going on. >> trevor: look, man, anyone who has been in a relationship will tell you there's no such thing as a temporary ban. you don't temporarily pause anything. if someone ever tells you that they want to take a temporary pause, you are single. yeah, trump insists it's temporary, like what, people are going to be like muslims, muslims, it's cool now, i figured out what was going on. come on back, it turns out there say very small sub sets of ready kal that leave in violent jihad and that has nothing to do with the vast majority of people muslims. why didn't anyone tell me! (cheers and applause) it's obvious, it's obvious why trump is having such a tough month. it's because he won't stop
9:55 am
saying crazy [bleep] all the time. there was trump's big thought on how the orlando shooting could have been stopped. >> trump endorsed by the national rifle association said that if some club goers had been armed, the tragedy could have been less horrific. >> if some of those wonderful people had guns strapped right here, right to their waste or right to their ankle, and one of the people in that room happened to have it and goes boom, boom, you know what, that would have been a beautiful, beautiful sight, folks. >> trevor: boom, boom, right in the-- i'm sorry, but if you ever think that someone being shot, whether criminal or otherwise, can be described as a beautiful, beautiful sight, you are one deranged [bleep]. lev laugh (cheers and applause) you're not describing a killing, you're describing a sunset. like donald trump, what is wrong with you. you know, now republicans who are really nervous about trump's
9:56 am
candidacy do actually have another option. you see, we found this out but on friday a former trump advisor told "politico" that he thinks donald trump would drop out of the race if someone offered him $150 million. yeah. which i know, sounds like a kick starter waiting to happen. but, but, there's a catch. >> i hear these, like little rumors, he wants 150 million-- do you believe this. could you offer me five times that amount and i wouldn't do it. one of the people was supposedly quoted, he might do it for five billion dollars. now for five billion, i guess we would have to think about it, right? >> trevor: (laughter) what? i love how trump's honesty always betrays him. yeah, he can't hold it in. because most politicians know, because it's fictional money, you should trn it down in a sank mondayious hon man thary makes you look patriotic. you have to be like there is no amount of money that can buy my pride. you can't buy america. you can't buy america, trump is
9:57 am
like yeah, you can, yeah, yeah, yeah. mr. trump, what are do doing? it's fictional money. it doesn't matter. all my money is fictional money. now i'll have 15 billion fictional dollars!

10:01 am
>> trevor: welcome back to the daily show. now in the wake of the or landso shooting, each house of congress had its own own way of responds together tragedy. in the senate's today, they debated four different gun control mesh-- measures. now we're taping the show while they're voting, so technically before the vote comes in. so while you know that these measures didn't pass, we don't know that yet. but last week in the house of representatives, there was no such debate. but they did follow their post-mass shooting tradition of observing a moment of silence. well, some of them did. >> silence, that is how the leadership of the most powerful country in the world will respond to this week's massacre of its citizens. silence. not me. not any more. i will no longer stand here absorbing the full concern, con triefed gravity and tep i had smugness of a house complicit in the weekly blood shed. >> trevor: joining me now to discuss this is connecticut
10:02 am
congressman jim himes, everybody. (cheers and applause). >> trevor: thank you for being here. thank you for being here. thank you so much for being here. really powerful words. you have seen mass shooting after mass shooting. you've had to observe these moments of silence over and over again. what took you to your breaking point? >> you know, it was sundays an as it happened i bumped into one of the fathers of a child that we lost at sandy hook. in connecticut is a small place. we know the families. we know the teachers. and i bumped into mark barden who is here with us tonight actually who lost his son at sandy hook. and i imagined telling him, you know, mark, this is probably a dozen moments of silence. you have 435 people who with about three hours of work could pass a bunch of bills that are supported by 80, 90% of the american public, doing what we are designed to do. but we're not going to do that. instead we'll stop talking about sports and stop talking about dinner and stop talking about done alleged trump for eight
10:03 am
seconds, we'll be quiet, put on our serious face and be quiet. how do you feel about that. i realized those moments of silence don't honor anybody there. they are emblematic of congressional neglect i will against on this issue nedges on this issue. >> trevor: you are looking at a situation whereas you said 80, 90% of the public is behind a lot of these measures. how do you con sol date that between congress and the public. shouldn't congress be trying to enact what the people want? aren't you supposed to be governing the peoplement isn't that what the function of the system should be? i don't understand it how do people out there, you know what do you say to someone who goes this is crazy, 890% of us or 10% just really, really convincing s that what it is? >> you have an intensity problem which is it is a very small am number of people who are willing not even to enter into the conversation, you know, whoever whatever you say, you can point out the fact that if you really believe that the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun, we have got a lot of good guys with a gun in this country. and we have a huge problem that
10:04 am
no other country has. you know, they're out there just saying, spreading fear. and the fear is that the president is coming to take your guns, that is way lapierre pierre special. or it say dangerous world and you better arm yourself. >> trevor: how do they translate that fear in congress. as a laymen of everyone-- -- in congress, the lawmakers, how is this applying to you. >> right, particularly look, there say partisan di vice-- divide here, not perfectly but a partisan divide and a lot of my good friends on the other side. aisle think that if they enter into a common sensical conversation about things that should be easy to talk about, they will get primaried by somebody who levels that fear at them. in other words -- >> trevor: does the nra have that power. can they genuinely say hey, mr. republican, we don't like what you are saying about guns. we're going to get someone to fill your seat. do they have that power. >> not that they can say that, they do say that. and of course they said that this week when they knew that these bills would come up. and in a dises joinltd and complicated political time and
10:05 am
it that right now, there is a lot of fear amongst my colleagues too. so again, the nra is partly powerful for their money. but they are mainly powerful because for years now they have been spreading fear that causes americans to say well, we're not even going to have that conversation. of course that translates into their representative government. >> trevor: how do the people out there do it after orlando the one thing i saw on twitter, thoughts and prayers, what do we do, how do we help. we want to donate blood, people want to do something. people want to be a part of the change. but a lot of it feels like people don't know how to be part of the change. so how can the public help you, how can the public help congress to get its job done. >> we need more advocacy. and we need it in those swing states. we talk a lot about swing states. all seven of us in the state of connecticut, we're on board. in those swing state, states like ohio, pennsylvania, north carolina, people need sto stand up and say to their elected officials, i care so much about this that my vote is at stake. they need to make that case and then it's up to all of us to
10:06 am
stop the insane debate that the nra wants us to have. they want us to say are you progun or antigun. what about me, i support second amendment rights, i like recreational shooting. but i believe that we ought to probably test people and make sure there is as much licensing and regulation around a gun as there is around an automobile. (applause). >> trevor: it is always shocking to me that show the conversation has been convoluted to the point where people have to be made to believe that licensing show infringes on their right and really that is just responsible ownership of these weapons. >> we've got a big bill of rights with all kinds of rights. and not a single one of them is absolute. we talk most about the first amendment, yes, we have a right to free speech but there are all kinds of restrictions, no screaming fire in a crowded theater, et cetera. so that is the kind of discussion we need to have we should have it with people who say wait a second, we have a huge problem in this country. 30,000 gun deaths, think about that, in two years we lose as many people to gun deaths as we lost in the entire course of the
10:07 am
vietnam war. two years we lose that many people. and we should have this conversation and people really need to push their elected representatives. >> trevor: i think with your voice, with twitter, with what is happening out there, people are getting hoind it. and pushing the representatives, but thank you for coming. >> thank you, trevor. >> trevor: we'll be right back. at our house, we're always down for more... case in point: our handcrafted skydiving chamber.
