Can Donald Trump forgive his enemies, if heaven depends on it? Ross Douthat asks him exactly that on 60 Minutes, and Jon Stewart makes the answer the center of The Daily Show's 39-minute compilation for the week of November 9.
Trump does not hedge. "I probably cannot do that, no, because I do hate some of my enemies and I always will," he says. Stewart reaches that moment after walking through Douthat's earlier questions about the president's personal wealth and his family's crypto business ties to the UAE. One exchange sets the tone: Douthat points out that his own net worth did not rise by $3 billion, and Trump replies, "I guess it's gone up. I don't even know." Briefly, Trump even allows that his deportation policies "might be too tough."
The episode opens on conservative commentators reacting to Republican midterm losses, including Tucker Carlson questioning Trump's leadership. It then turns to Stephen Miller's appointment as White House chief of staff. Stewart tests him against an on-screen checklist: not a sycophant, calm and steady, comfortable in his own skin.
From about the eighteen-minute mark, Desi Lydic anchors the headlines. She covers the reported scandal that ended with Jensen Huang leaving Nvidia, Lauren Boebert's lost seat and the Hegseth impeachment vote that failed after eleven Democrats stayed away. Scott Colom's Mississippi Senate win, the other half of the title, closes the episode.
The comment section moved quickly, with nearly twice a usual first day's comments in 14 hours. Much of it is about Douthat rather than the hosts: many viewers single out his questioning as the part of the episode they came for.
