Jon Stewart has some thoughts about the pet-eating rumors Donald Trump amplified during the presidential debate. According to the Daily Show host, “in any other political campaign,” this would be a career-ending controversy.

Speaking backstage after winning an Emmy on Sunday in Los Angeles, the comic and host also praised his 'Daily Show' team and the news media who "do it great."

Jon Stewart went live on The Daily Show Tuesday to share his instant reaction to the big debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. He marveled at Harris’ ability to make a simple argument in a way Joe Biden failed to do in his showdown with Trump and compared Trump to Grandpa Simpson for his unhinged rant about immigrants eating dogs.
