-- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com >> july 20, 2015. from comedy central's world news headquarters in new york, this is "the daily show" with jon stewart! ♪ (cheers and applause) >> jon: welcome to "the daily show"! my name is jon stewart! my guest tonight, "ant-man"! "ant-man" will be joining us tonight! (cheers and applause) while we were out, huge, important, the beast, revenge from tundz taker. and the iran deal. also that.

(laughter) angela merkel gave greet a deal -- dealing with greece is like the economic equivalent to sitting on greece's chest, pinning down their hands and drooling into their mouth -- or as the germans call it, foreplay. (laughter) there's another tragic attack, chattanooga, five servicemen lost their lives. when will this end? i don't know how i'll talk about any of this. >> donald trump is at it again! (cheers and applause) >> jon: and then he appeared. (laughter) donald trump.

the patron saint of topical comedians who are just running out the clock. i mean, look... we did just have two weeks off from talking about trump, a dumb-springa, i called it. just out of curiosity, what is he at again? >> unleashing his latest political firestorm on a new target, this time john mccain. >> he's not a war hero. trump in iowa going directly after the arizona senator and former navy fighter pilot who spent five and a half years as a p.o.w. >> he's a war hero because he was captured. i like people who weren't captured, i have to tell ya. >> jon: hey! hold on! just -- (laughter) and you know, if i may, (bleep) cancer survivors, too!

(laughter) , no let me just say, please, i like people who don't get carnes. i like -- (laughter) -- let me tell you something, i like winners, those are the people whose bodies don't suffer from an uncontrollable division of abnormalle cells attacking their organs. those are the people we should be making wishes and running marathons for, winners, winners, winners, winners (cheers and applause) trump 2016. trump's bold -- (laughter) -- p.o.w.s -- oh, we're going out on a high note! trump's p.o.w.s aren't hero raise questions of what the (bleep) is wrong with him? >> when you're criticized or attack, you often respond with name calling using terms like dummy, loser, total losers on twitter an and elsewhere. you even demean some people's

physical appearance. is that something you will continue doing if you're president? >> people attack me. you say physical appearance. it's my hair. people are constantly attacking my hair. i don't see you coming to my defense. my hair is just fine. (laughter) >> jon: first things first -- your hair's not fine. now, i agree, attacking someone's physical appearance is a cheap blow -- but that hair? that is comedy entrapment! (laughter) people are not attacking your hair. they are defending themselves from something that appears like it's about to attack them! wil(laughter) i smell a new pixar movie!

(laughter) trump's comments clearly caught on tape. trump had no choice but to recognize he had misspoken and take the honorable way out. i'm just (bleep) with ya! here's what he did. >> why did savannah start out by saying i said he wasn't a war hero. he was a war hero. savannah started it off by saying i didn' i said he wasn'tr hero. i didn't say that. >> jon: i swore you could have. >> he is not a war hero! >> jon: yeah, let's watch it upside down. >> he is not a war hero. >> jon: no, still -- better there, but still sounds like he said he's not a war hero. let me see a little "sesame street" vibe --

>> he's not a war hero. >> jon: that appears to be brought to you by the letter "you said it"! >> he is a war hero. i said that. they don't want to play it. if you would have let it run another three seconds, you would have seen i said very clearly, he is a war hero. >> he's a war hero because he was captured. >> jon: so you said he's not a war hero. the guy next to you goes, he's a war hero. and you go, well, he's a war hero because he got captured. so, really, does calling someone a war hero count if you're doing it sarcastically? he's not a war hero, but, all right, he is a war hero, fine, he got captured. whatever. (applause) but, of course, who better to

talk about sacrifice in wartime than donald trump. >> i had student deferment and medical deferment because of my feet. i had a bone spur. >> jon: okay, gi et that as a man who is also constantly suffering from medical conditions that aren't real! i will say a bone spur is very painful. it's the kind of pain you never forget. >> which foot do you have a bone spur in? >> i don't know, it's in the records. (laughter) >> jon: right or left, one of those two. i don't know. probably the one i don't normally have in my mouth. (laughter) listen! don't flame out now! i've got to squeeze three more weeks of this in! you're at the point where even your fellow republican candidates, people trying very

hard to not recognize what a terrible person are now are. >> it's ridiculous. denounce donald trump for that. >> donald trump owes every american veteran and in particular john mccain an apology. >> jeb bush is saying "enough with the slanderous attacks. senator john mccain and all our veterans, particularly p.o.w.s, have earned our respect and admiration ." >> jon: yes, at long last does the man who accused the vast a majority of mexican immigrants of being drug-addicted rapists have no sense of decency? (laughter) but they're right! they're right! (applause) i so love this man! (laughter) i really feel like he's some sort of jewish holiday waiting to happen. like, we thought the craziness

would only last a day. but by a miracle, it burned for eight, ten, holy (bleep)! that's what we should call it, holy (bleep)-ka! (laughter) why is everybody surprised about trump? the only thing you like him is because of the terrible things he's willing to say about obama. but he has no control over the vomit of dickishness that comes out of his mouth! his word puke will get on you! you should have known that, you have been down this road before! >> nancy pelosi is a ding bat. waterboarding is how we baptize terrorists. >> jon: once you cast the spell -- (laughter) -- and bring an internet comment

development in donald trump's presidential bid because, you know, why not, nothing else really is fun to talk about, we turn to senior election correspondent jordan klepper who's at the trump hotel. thanks for joining us. jordan, a month in the trump campaign, and he has already managed to alienate most of his own party. >> i know. the man is truly an inspiration. >> jon: wait a minute. an inspiration? to whom? >> well, to me, to my hedge fund manager, to frat boys everywhere, jon. don't you see, donald trump could very well be our first openly asshole president. (laughter) (applause) >> jon: come on. that can't be true. what about andrew jackson, he's an asshole. >> no, jackson was a compassionless killing machine. >> jon: warren harding. a dickhead, not an asshole. it's nuance, but a difference. >> jon: nixon.

nixon, clearly an asshole. >> gaping. a gaping asshole but closeted. nixon's assholishness went unconfirmed until the tapes leaked but trump, on the other hand, says it loud and proud. i'm here, i'm an asshole, get used to it you mexican rapist losers. >> jon: i admit it. i never thawed about it. >> jon, clearly, you are prejudiced against asshole americans. >> jon: that's totally not true, jordan. i have very close friends who are assholes. >> really? >> jon: yep. like who? paul rudd. paul rudd is an asshole. (cheers and applause)

>> jon! thank you for the shoutout, buddy! really, this is the best asshole you could come up with? >> jon hey, klepper, i just (bleep) your man while your da dad watched. you piece of (bleep). trump 2016! (applause) i stand corrected. that guy's a real asshole. >> jon: i get it now, trump's campaign is a step forward for assholes everywhere. >> a giant leap for ass kind. let me tell you a story about a little boat. people used to say to me -- to him, little boy, you will never be president. you're way too big an asshole, jordan -- lilt boy. then he'd cry myself to sleep listening to nickel back.

do you know who that little me was, jon? >> jon: it was you. no, it was me, jon, me! but today is a new day, not just for me but the little assholes at home sassing their underpaid cleaning woman, running the first puppy mill or clapping at the wrong parts of wall street, now those assholes can dream. so we say thank you donald trump for being such a tremendous asshole! >> jon: jordan, that was beautiful. thank you. >> thank you, john. by the way, i also (bleep) your mom while your dad watched. >> jon: my dad's passed away, jordan. >> sorry. paul rudd makes it look so easy!
