I So Miss Trevor‼️‼️ He Tells It Like It Is ‼️‼️‼️‼️

[@RobFoglesong]

This segment was the one that really sold me on Trevor. Using his background to help enlighten Americans.

[@LM_357]

Trevor is not enlightened

[@sarahopkins7138]

We need Trevor back!🥺 The most authentic and sensitive comedian with a heart!

A clown 🤡 nobody watched this 🗑 🚮

[@ichhabe330]

That interview with Amin on the river was insane. Remember watching it back in the days and it was crazy.

[@niklasAlarsson]

I miss Trevor Noah, he had such a talent to point out the craziness and comedy in the US politics.

[@Shorty_Lickens]

So far the daily show hasnt really given us anyone as talented as Trevor and Jon. But since most shows are on hiatus they have time to go looking.

[@mandelkar]

Me too. I miss him

[@michaelmurphy6195]

Did he die?

[@Shorty_Lickens]

@@michaelmurphy6195No he left the show, was getting bored and needed new stuff to do. It was well before the writers strike.

[@Barry-mp3bt]

Hope he went back to Africa, maybe you could join him.

[@ecamp6360]

This was great the first time and highlighted the genius behind the choice of Trevor for the host job. His different perspective was crucial.

[@embreis2257]

4:29 '...conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in general and Uganda in particular.' yeah, but also insisting on VC, DSO and MC - all three very British decorations, the _Victoria Cross_ , the _Distinguished Service Order_ and the _Military Cross_ oh, the irony

[@KT-bg7hf]

Still gold, still accurate, years later.

[@blackspider1405]

As a Nigerian, I laughed and cried at the exact same time. This is 100000% true.

[@A_Legal_Immigrant_1776]

As a none Negirian, you have been brainwashed by clown Trevor. Wake up...

[@Dom-mv3so]

Then you are blind,daft and seriouly have been misinformed. This is just a hit job to pls those paying his bills

[@MikesgeneralRepaird]

Hey what would happen if Trevor went to Nigera ,you know with his gayness.

[@ikennaifedilo5300]

​@@Dom-mv3soThanks for seeing the truth and not falling for these purveyors of falsehood

[@Profitfromcoaching]

​@@Dom-mv3somisinformed? The guy was all over social media or was it the misinformants who handled his social channels. We from Africa were not used to Western leaders coming across like African dictators before Trump.

[@kapangaf1]

This is truly a masterpiece, never gets old.

[@Kasamira]

I grew up watching Jon but I’m really going to miss seeing Trevor.

[@gildahnyamongo5973]

Every time I watch one of these guest hosts they keep bringing on the show, I find myself going back to one of Trevor's videos. This one never get's old, always leaves me in stiches.

[@generaltso6914]

More true today than in 2016!! Hilarious how his uniform keeps getting more lavish and decorated!! Needed this!

[@ErLeuchten]

i missed at least 5 russian medals, for him leaving syria, supporting kimjongun, cutting deals with western european allies, trusting putin more than his own secret service and interfering us/ukrainian relationships.

[@jamesvandemark2086]

Truly a classic! Thanks for bringing it back!

[@user-cc8kb]

Trevor is missed! He was the heart and soul of this show. The other correspondants were the icing on top. They were perfect.

[@BeautifulJ]

What happened to trevor? Did he quit?

[@TheFlutecart]

This has aged perfectly. 100%

[@rydistanley7052]

Trevor Noah always presented information in such an insightful manner...I miss him!

[@marohan]

Leftist stool

[@amossishuba3088]

Trevor says what he has been told because some villains are the real revolutionaries its not my opinion it's a fact let trevor see things by his western eye way

[@daviddrewniak1173]

Always outstanding work. Thank you

[@bkm2797]

This would be hilarious if it weren't True! Excellent Trevor, we miss you.

[@emsleywyatt3400]

Its truth is what makes it hilarious. Laugh to keep from crying.

[@OrthodoxRabbiBillClinton]

You can laugh now, our current president is a shill for China and Ukraine 😊

[@icmman7]

youtube has gaybots too now? sooooo many today

[@lizardguyNA]

It's sad people saw this and did nothing to stop him.

[@graceannecreque5491]

We miss you Trevor especially at this time your satire and political astuteness is especially important for those of us who are flabbergasted regarding the ascendancy of abnormal abhorrent behavior within the society.

[@biggig2872]

Saw this Video some years ago!!! He was so right, Trevor !!!!

[@pilargonzalez8442]

The comedy shows were incredible at this time and during the pandemic, it really kept us informed and able to make sense of the insanity that was happening in U.S. politics thanks to 45's daily doses of poisoning lies. Trevor was incredible, and I will always be grateful. I wonder what he will do next.

[@woodrochristopherwood1578]

@pilargonzalez8442 Jon Stewart and Trevor Noah really knew how to make the Daily Show informative. Using comedy to report the news is awesome when you know what is going one and what is a joke.

[@icmman7]

get fired from another platform, low ratings king ya tool

[@MrTubular13]

During the invasion of Iraq, the DS was airing stuff even before the NYT would report on it.

[@woodrochristopherwood1578]

@@MrTubular13 That all depends on when it is taped meaning the Daily Show vs. Live television which is local and national. The Daily Show will include news that not always gets aired on live tv.

[@archiegarg1958]

lies? like what? amazing economy? secure border? no wars overseas? man, you seem to gather the wrong idea from the show. the show makes disingenuous comparisons and/or outright false statements and poor analytical reasoning. Trump was great for this nation. Just cause your brainless Hillary lost doesnt mean you harden your heart.

[@PeteBolo-gi6qe]

He got me with that "born with this certain intellect" ,except that hand gesture made me laugh out loud... definitely him

[@simondewitt7161]

This was hands down the best segment Trevor Noah's Daily Show produced. Comedy Central should have hired someone else to do the traditional Daily Show (Wilmore, Oliver, Klepper, etc) and given Trevor his own World Daily Show.

[@sam_broesel]

The guy was brilliant, he hit the nail on the head.

[@liuoil8746]

Never gets old

[@Aliaxs]

America, we thank you for your recent contributions to political culture. You definitely killed it bigly this time. And that means something coming from a German! Thank you for lowering the bar. You taught us lately, everyone can make it, if one is just great enough - and a TV-Star. - Jan Böhmermann

Trevor Noah, all time authentic ""president " of sitcom ❤😊

[@claireconover]

the daily show isn’t a sitcom. modern family is a sitcom. friends is a sitcom. seinfeld is a sitcom. the wonder years is a sitcom. the daily show is a comedy talk show.

[@edwinalasortega7391]

Can we get Travor back!!! Is the best reporter we had the last few year!!!

[@AdeleiTeillana]

Still one of my favorites! I love how Trump's suit gradually chances to a dictator's uniform over the course of the video! 😂

[@Daniel-gc9ws]

Dictators removes their political opposition by putting them in jail. And that is what they are trying to do to president Trump Also they rig elections and blame they who exposes it.

[@rdklkje13]

Mine too 😍 And there's another one where the African dictators laugh at Trump for his dictator aspirations, but that's all I recall about it.

[@ranradd]

Love Trevor and this clip. Nailed it so well.

[@ConstantChaos1]

@yibelula23 I mean its still topical and I hope they are planning a part 2 to cover all the other ways since 2016 that he has gotten more dictatorial (I'm hoping that's why they re-released it not just to keep the channel from dying in the algorithm which shows the studios are getting more desperate)
