[♪ "macarena" by los del río playing] [explosion] come on, big money. still $300. -uh, how about t again? -[buzzer sounds] [♪ serene music playing] -strike. -[announcer] strike three and he knew it. [grunts] ♪ ♪ >> announcer: from the most trusted journalists at comedy central... it's america's only source for news. this is "the daily show" with your host, desi lydic! ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause]

♪ ♪ >> desi: welcome to "the daily show!" i'm desi lydic. we've got so much to talk about tonight. kamala harris faces a mcflurry of questions, donald trump declares war on furniture, and we'll have a live performance from raye! [cheers and applause] let's get right into it with another installment of "indecision 2024." ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] we are just 40 days away from the election, which means it's time to start working on that insurrection body! both kamala harris and donald trump gave campaign speeches on the economy today. kamala laid out her priorities for the middle class, while donald trump promised to bring back north carolina's manufacturing jobs. and he wasn't dramatic about it

at all. >> all of your furniture makers are going to come back and come back bigger and stronger and better than ever before. they're mostly gone. they're all coming back. this is why people in countries want to kill me. >> desi: that's why people want to kill trump? does he think ikea issued a fatwa on him? although fatwa is my favorite ikea bookshelf, i have to say. now, in her speech, kamala was emphasizing her middle class roots, while in his speech, trump was saying, "nuh-uh!" >> she never worked at mcdonald's. it was a fake story. it was a fake story. she said she worked at mcdonald's and she didn't. it was a lie.

she never worked at mcdonald's over the hot french fries. i think i'm going to a mcdonald's in two weeks actually. >> desi: did trump just talk himself into getting hungry? "she never worked over the piping hot fries, so crispy and salty. each bite a perfect -- we should go to mcdonald's! let's go to mcdonald's!" so trump's new conspiracy theory is that kamala harris never worked at mcdonald's when she was young. which to him is basically stolen valor. "how dare you disrespect our men and women in uniform! those people served with honor and with extra ketchup packets if you ask." and yes, it's ridiculous that trump is asking to see kamala's burger certificate. this isn't the kind of thing you would lie about, it's not like... sex with a porn star while your wife is pregnant.

[audience reacts] [cheers and applause] but look, i get why he's suspicious. if she had ever worked at any mcdonald's between the years 1960 and last week, he probably would have seen her. or maybe this whole thing is just a ploy for him to get free food. "you worked at mcdonald's? prove it. make me seven big macs!" but look, here's the thing: trump and kamala weren't supposed to be doing this stuff today. originally, there was another debate scheduled for tonight. and "the daily show" would be broadcasting live. but there was no debate, and we -- we're not live. in fact as you're watching this right now, i'm already at home in bed, watching videos about how bad it is to look at your phone in bed. and now, it's looking more and more likely that the first trump-harris debate was also the last. because while kamala keeps saying she's down for a rematch, trump wants no part of it.

>> the problem with another debate is that it's just too late. voting has already started. it's too late to do another. i'd love to in many ways, but it's too late. the voting is cast. [boos] >> desi: i'm sorry, it's too late! i'd love to have my ass handed to me for another two hours, but there's just no time! there is no time. [cheers and applause] i can't blame the guy. people don't typically volunteer for a second beat down. drake's not going to kendrick, like, "hey, we should beef again! send me some dates!" get it on my calendar. but then again, there's only 40 days until the election. there is no time to lose, which is why trump is working overtime to make his final sales pitch. and it's not the one you think. >> hello, everyone. i have something incredible to share today. we are announcing the launch of

trump coins, a true symbol of american greatness. each coin comes with a certificate of authenticity with my signature to ensure you have purchased a real trump coin. i've seen a lot of coins out there using my very beautiful face, very beautiful guy. i'm only kidding. >> desi: "i'm only kidding." apparently there are some lies even trump can't stand by. but trump is right, there are a lot of different trump coins floating around out there, and you don't want to be scammed by some grifter's fake coin. you want to be scammed by donald trump's fake coin. and that's why trump's coin comes with a "certificate of authenticity." which authentically certifies that you should not be in charge of your family's finances. [cheers and applause] now if he was just peddling this coin, i would understand, what

with all the legal bills he has to pay for the fraud and the sexual assault, and all the big macs. but this is just the latest in a long line of junk he's been hawking all campaign season. >> by popular demand, i am doing a new series of trump trading cards. these cards show me dancing and even me holding some bitcoins. >> the launch of world liberty financial. we are embracing the future with crypto. >> i'm proud to endorse and encourage you to get this bible. >> hello to my fellow patriots. we have some very big news. my new book, "save america" published by winning team publishing. >> we're going to remember sneaker con. that's the real deal. >> each physical card has a piece of my suit that i wore for the presidential debate. >> so they just came out with this t-shirt, which is really pretty spectacular. and it's selling like hotcakes. >> desi: yeah, so trump is selling a lot of stuff. and keep in mind, this is all in

the middle of a campaign season. is it me or does it seem like may be like his true passion is this? like, healthcare, he only has a "concept" of a plan. bible hawking, he has a whole warehouse ready to go! in fact, donald, why don't you just do this and, you know, do this and forget about the whole presidency thing. [cheers and applause] this is what you are good at. if it helps, you can sell a commemorative coin from when you retired from politics! i'd buy that! [cheers and applause] oh, sorry, what was that? trump just came out with a new product? well, let's check it out! ♪ ♪ >> hello, it is your favorite president, donald j. trump. over the years, you have bought my coins come on my shoes, pieces of my suit. and it made me wonder.

is there anything you won't buy? introducing, trump spunk. i'm the first president in american history to drain his own swamp into tiny little bottles, very tiny, and pass them on to you by the american people. look at that. that is my snake sauce. isn't that fantastic? each vial is personally hand cranked by yours truly, the greatest american president. they say my patriotic splooge is better than lincoln's, the crime of della crime. you can use trump spunk for anything. a charm on a friendship bracelet, incredible glaze for your easter ham or to propose to that special someone. you can add water and make your own eric. i wouldn't recommend it. every vial of trump spunk is guaranteed to be 90% of my man powder. i don't know where the rest came from. and for a limited time only,

each vial of my tadpole yogurt is only $29.99. act now and get a limited edition capsule of the j6 juice that was graded while i was watching the capitol riots. so wonderful. trump spunk. it is worth a shot. limited two per customer. i am not a machine. [cheers and applause] >> desi: well, that was gross! when we come back, raye will be joining me on the show. so don't go away. [cheers and applause]

[cheers and applause] >> desi: welcome back to "the daily show." my guest tonight is a singer-songwriter whose debut album earned her a record-breaking six brit awards. her new live concert album is called "live at montreux jazz festival." please welcome raye! ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] >> desi: welcome to the show! >> thank you so much for having me. i did a couple of star trump's just to get into the vibe. i'm out of breath. >> desi: a couple of star

jumps. >> you call them jumping jacks in america. >> desi: i'm now calling them star jumps for the rest of my life. that is so much better than "jumping jacks." [applause] brits do everything better. it is just the way it is. congratulations on all of your success. you just swept the brit awards with a record six awards including best album. [cheers and applause] >> thank you. >> desi: how did that feel? what does that mean to you? >> honestly, i think the night got more and more blurry and more a more emotional as the night went on. [laughs] the album was the last one. [laughs] i just was crying, sobbing. it is all blurry. i have watched it back again and i got to bring my grandma on stage which was the most beautiful moment. >> desi: oh! >> she is everything to me. aw! [applause] >> desi: she must be so proud of you. >> she is, yeah. >> desi: that is incredible. you know, the americans are

completely obsessed with british artists. charli xcx, you, harry styles, adele. are you all impressed with americans at all? you can be honest. >> [laughs] i don't know what to say back to that. >> desi: it's okay. >> we love americans. come on. go, americans. [laughter] [applause] >> desi: we need to do more star jacks. star jumps. you come, you mentioned your grandma, you come from a very musical family. your sister is a singer-songwriter. your grandfather was a songwriter. you grew up singing in the church choir. how has all of that influenced you as a musician? >> i don't know. i think the thing with music is when it gets you, it really gets you, do you know what i mean? and i was so young when i just decided, like, this was plan a. there was no plan b. i'm going to be a musician or

die trying. so my entire life has just been that pursuit of music and i started as a songwriter, got my foot in the door. it has been, yeah, it has been not the simplest journey behind the scenes, you know what i mean. but we made it. so far, so good. got big dreams, big plans come heading there. >> desi: is that what you did? you started out as a songwriter, wrote songs for beyonce, for john legend, four kylie minogue. how was it, last year you put out independently your solo album. how did that feel to do that and what was the music writing process like for you writing for yourself versus for another artist? >> do you know, it was such a liberating thing. and i have been an a record label for quite a while and it was a tricky time. for me, albums are everything. everything is becoming a lot shorter. all of our attention spans, including myself, just getting shorter and shorter. for me, albums are just essentially important and will never die and i really believe in the album. getting to make my own one was a

really beautiful experience and then on top of that, getting to be recognized and listen to. it is opened so many doors. it has blown my mind. a lot of people thought that i would never have success as an artist, do you know what i mean? so it is also so vindicating to be able to prove to myself that they were all chatting rubbish. [cheering and laughter] >> desi: you earned it! you have earned it! 1 of the things i appreciate so much about your music and that i think sets you apart from so many other artists is the way that you juxtapose these big, sort of joyful, big band, jazzy music along with lyrics that are really raw and vulnerable and about very serious issues. you talk about body dysmorphia, you talk about mental health, sexual assault. how do you even begin building music around those lyrics?

>> well, you know, i do think music is medicine. i always say that. i think, even sitting here and talking to you about these sort of heavier subjects, i get nervous, i don't really know how to address it or what to say. i think music is a safe space to kind of the raw and honest and that is my safe space. that is my therapy. yeah, i think there's a lot of us who are really broken and a lot of us who are hurting and a lot of us are deal with things we don't know exactly how to speak about or express even with the people that we love. i think music is a safe space to do that, to find healing or talk about it or just process it. that was really important to me as an independent artist. i just wanted to be honest about those things you are quiet about, you know? >> desi: you've talked a lot about imposter syndrome. >> yeah. [laughs] >> desi: experiencing that. is that something that you still think about, even with this amount of success that you have reached? >> oh, yeah. [laughter] you know what, i am just more of, like, i'm quite chatty and

just hang out, do you know what i mean? when you get put in these kind of fancy environments like the met gala for instance, i was just like, what am i doing here? so i guess, you do kind of feel like that. i don't necessarily feel like that is a bad thing. i think the kind of music i want to continue to greet them of the person i always want to be a someone who is just like, do you know they mean, normal. not being fancy, i suck at being fancy, even though the stress is very fancy. >> desi: -- [laughter] [applause] >> desi: you are going to be performing your song "genesis" for us tonight. and within that, you explore all of these different topics. you talk a lot about the dangers of social media, mental health, anxiety. you explore all of these radiating topics. what was so important to you about covering all of those themes in this one song? >> well, i don't know.

like i was kind of thing before, i feel like it is easy to blush over and gloss over the truth and for us to all be -- we are kind of stuck in these algorithms and it is all like "self-love, self-love, everything is great and everything is fine" but it is just not the reality at all. i spent 5 minutes on social media and my head starts to spin out. i've actually had to come off it completely. i made them change my passwords. i can't even login. someone hands me my phone and i'm like, i have 4 minutes. i leave it because it is really bad for me and i can't be the only one who feels that way. >> desi: that is brilliant. >> i wanted to make a song. it's a seven minute long song. i'm sorry, i am only doing the really sad parts on here. >> desi: that works for us. >> [laughs] so it is going to be quite depressing, starts out, gets quite angry, that it goes live. i don't know, it is just art and music, it is on this. it was tough to write, it is very raw. i'm proud of it. that is what matters most i think, yeah. [cheers and applause]

>> desi: you have a lot to be proud of. you should be very proud of yourself and we are proud to have you here at this show. so thank you so much for coming on.
