Trevor Noah On Final Night Of RNC: Loved Melania's Shade, Hated 'Boring' Trump Speech

If “I’m sitting in a crowd” at the White House, “risking catching coronavirus, God damn it, I want a Trump speech," the "Daily Show" host said.

The Republican National Convention is over, and “The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah’s reviews are in.  

During his show on Friday, Noah played a clip of First Lady Melania Trump flashing a killer look after Ivanka Trump walked by.

“Oh my God, did you guys see that?” he asked excitedly. “God damn, as soon as Ivanka walked by, Melania’s smile disappeared.”

That was the highlight of Thursday night for him. Then it was onto something far, far less engaging: what Noah described as Trump’s “longest, most boring, low-energy Jeb-Bush-ass speech of his entire life.”

If “I’m sitting in a crowd” on the White House South Lawn “risking catching coronavirus to watch a Trump speech, God damn it, I want a Trump speech,” he said. “I want to hear his plans for locking Hillary up while chugging hydroxychloroquine.”

But “this speech was like going to a NASCAR race and watching the cars parallel park for three hours,” Noah quipped. “Where’s the crash? Honestly, it was really weird.”
