Jordan Klepper recaps the DNC's second night, from an electric roll call featuring Lil Jon to headliners Barack and Michelle Obama delivering soaring rhetoric while also hitting below the belt. Plus, Desi Lydic has notes for the delegation from Illinois, and Ronny Chieng reveals the insults Democrats have coming next for Trump. To land one of the most coveted interviews with Gov. Tim Walz at the DNC, Grace Kuhlenschmidt is trying every trick in the dad-bait book, from giving away the movie Rudy on Blu-Ray to asking if anyone can show her how to use a stud finder. And Maryland Governor Wes Moore talks about investing in a ticket that embodies fighting for freedom, how Kamala Harris’s policies incorporate her work from the Biden administration, the differing images of patriotism between the right and the left, and Harris’s role as a partner in support of Maryland, from improving employment rates to lending a hand after the Baltimore Key Bridge collapse.

Speaker 5 (01:00):
Everybody allay? Oh wait, I gotta say, I gotta say
this week has been lovely for me personally because I
spent some seriously formative years living in Chicago doing comedy.
So yes, yes, thank you. This city is in my blood.
(01:23):
And by that I mean I suffer from a Duck's
hot dog induced cholesterol problem. Worth it. But we're here
to talk about the Democratic National Convention, so let's get
into Indecision.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Twenty twenty four.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
Yesterday, it was night two of the DNC, and the
positive vibes were still going strong. People were dancing, they
were singing, they were cheering, they were putting in visiline.
In poor Mastard, He's thinking, there's twenty thousand people in
(02:05):
this arena. There's no way the camera's is going to
be pointed at me for two seconds while I take
on my visil line. I mean in front of the
whole world. You know, his dentist was like, the best
part of the Visil line is that no one will ever.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Know you have it.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
Yes, I mean, who is the cameraman who staked out
this guy for thirty hours just to get that two
second shot? You know, this is a convention, not a
planet Earth shoots.
Speaker 7 (02:35):
Watch the aging Liberals slowly prepare his mouth to attract
to meet.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Now, the actual purpose of the convention is to officially
nominate the party's presidential ticket, and they do that through
a state role call. Here's what that looked like at
the Republican Convention a few weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Pursuing to the announcement of the delegation and the rules
and procedures of this convention.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Oklahoma forty three votes President Trump. Okay, I get it.
A lady who runs an orphanage counts the votes and
that's that. But last night the Democrats changed things up
a bit.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Georgia, how do you catch your vote?
Speaker 7 (03:26):
Jeez, ladies and gentlemen, we are need today.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Ahead.
Speaker 8 (03:36):
Who is stuck se turn out the water?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Bo whoo?
Speaker 5 (03:46):
Who I didn't know politics was so lych. I'm gonna
start voting. I just know that when little John wrote
this song. He was thinking to himself, this will absolutely rip.
At the twenty twenty four Democrat Natural Convention. I'd love
to hear someone explaining to the older white delegates who
(04:08):
little John is. Who's a rapper?
Speaker 9 (04:11):
Mom?
Speaker 5 (04:12):
You know that musical genre invented by lin Manuel Miranda.
They actually had a DJ spinning song from each state
as they came up. He played Motown Philly for Pennsylvania,
a Chapel Rohan song for her home state of Missouri.
Iowa probably had Happy Birthday or some shit. Not a
(04:34):
big music state. Personally, I can't wait to see my
home state of Michigan show. Yeah, palms are sweating, mom, spaghetti,
you got the mic, Michigan. Make me proud, Michigan.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
How do you cast your vote?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
The origin together, Michigan?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Chess threes gent.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Twenty five posts?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
What are you doing?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
You embarrassed usn't front of Illinois, Michigan. Come on, Michigan,
how did you mess that up? You can't say a
simple number, but you know how to say ipsil Annie.
Come on, this is why you go to rehearsal, ladies.
(05:38):
You literally only had one shot and you missed your
chance to blow this opportunity comes.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Once in a lifetime.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Yo, you know what, Let's see if Illinois did any better.
Speaker 10 (05:56):
The great state of Illinois, Verry stay home up for
presidents including President Frock Obama, the first place of skyscrapers
in the adopted.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Home of Superman.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Okay, started out strong. Seems like a pretty steep drop
off from presidents and skyscrapers to the adopted home of
a made up comic book character. I mean you had
nothing in between that, Like Michael Jordan, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
He JV.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
JAV Come on, I mean, last time I checked, there's
no Superman steakhouse in Chicago. For more on the DNC
roll Call, let's go live now to the Illinois Delegation
with Desi leideck.
Speaker 11 (07:02):
Zie V.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
I gotta know what you think at the adopted home
of Superman and what do you make of that choice?
Speaker 12 (07:18):
Well, that was a huge missed opportunity, Jordan. The committee
claims that this was the best they could come up with.
But there's so many better options when you're talking about
a great state like Illinois.
Speaker 5 (07:33):
Right obviously, of course, So what would you have gone with?
Speaker 12 (07:38):
Well, I've been here since Monday, so I'm officially an
expert on Illinois history. How about Illinois, home of the
notorious serial killer John Wayne Gasey.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Don't think that would have played bezie Okay?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Okay?
Speaker 12 (07:58):
Or Illinois where four of our last ten governors went
to prision?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
I don't think that one's better.
Speaker 12 (08:12):
Okay, Fine, what about Illinois and the winner?
Speaker 2 (08:16):
You'll phrase your tits off?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Okay, I think we're good.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
Deasilonick, everybody, let's move on. I want to move on
because after the roll call, it was time for the speeches,
and the headliners were Barack and Michelle Obama.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
America Hope is making a comeback.
Speaker 8 (08:42):
America's running for a new chapter, America's running que better story.
We are ready for President Kamala Harris.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
You know what I almost forgot how charming and inspirational
the Obamas are. Frankly, it's a shot of adrenaline to
see these masters of the craft. You sort of want
to sit in it. You know, I almost don't want
to listen to anybody else. But you know what the
Democrats have been telling us, they have a deep bench.
So let's see these exciting up and comers tap into
(09:23):
the energy and the charisma the Obamas.
Speaker 13 (09:25):
In my state, we like things spicy, a little chilly
on everything, a little pick in our campaigns.
Speaker 14 (09:35):
And let me tell you, we are feeling in fuego
right now.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
You know what, maybe another quick hit of that Obama
arm for a second.
Speaker 13 (10:01):
We believe that true freedom gives each of us the
right to make decisions about our own life, how we worship,
what our family looks like, how many kids we have,
who we marry, And we believe that freedom requires us
to recognize that other people have the freedom to make
(10:23):
choices that are different than ours.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
That's okay, oh.
Speaker 15 (10:31):
Oh oh, oh oh.
Speaker 7 (10:40):
Oh, that's the good stuff, you know.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Inject that hope and changing shit into my veins. Whoa,
you know, but I can't just get high off these
guys all night. You know, there's other products out there,
like like Kamala Harris's husband, Doug Emma. You know, yeah,
why don't I give him a chance to touch my
(11:07):
heart with his moving story of the first time he
called Kamala for a date.
Speaker 16 (11:11):
I got Kamala's voicemail and I just started rambling, Hey
it's Doug, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
That sure is a Doug. Has there ever been a
more guy named Doug. In history, if your name's Doug,
this is who you are. But maybe maybe we're asking
too much of Doug. He's a political spouse. You don't
expect a political spouse to be able to rile up
(11:50):
a crowd.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
I want to know.
Speaker 8 (11:53):
I want to know who's gonna tell him, who's gonna
tell him that's the job.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
He's currently seeking.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Might just be one of those black jobs.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Oh that's not a Doug. Uh, not an ounce of
Doug on it. Don't the Democrats have anyone else who
can tap into that cool Obama swagger. Please welcome Senate
Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. No, No, that's a dog.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
That is a dog.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
I'm sorry. When you see these two up on stage,
it's very clear that for all the talk Democrats have
about not looking back, they sure love to live in
two thousand and eight. I frankly, who can blame them?
Nobody else in their party can capture their vision of
the future or speak to their values, and perhaps most importantly,
(12:54):
nobody else can get under Trump's skin in just the
right way.
Speaker 13 (12:59):
There's the child thish nicknames, the crazy conspiracy theories, this
weird obsession with crowd sizes, oh oh.
Speaker 17 (13:14):
Oh oh oh oh h.
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Yeah, I see what he did there. Huh yeah, yeah,
that's that's brutal. That's the second time this summer the
Secret Service has failed to protect trug from a lethal attack.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
For more on the dick joke heard round the Beam,
let's go live to Ronnie Chang.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Ronny, Ronnick, I gotta stay.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
If you get online or on TV, everyone is talking
about that dick joke.
Speaker 17 (14:04):
That's right, Jordan, that's a new democratic messaging. Weird is out.
Trump's got a small penis is in.
Speaker 5 (14:10):
Oh okay, so that's it. They're not using weird anymore.
Speaker 17 (14:15):
Oh no, no, no, sorry for the confusion. It's both
his penis is small and weird.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Oh okay, all right, all right, so that's it. No policy,
it's just gonna be immature innuendo from Noah.
Speaker 17 (14:29):
Yes, the dick joke's a major attack line, and they're
only gonna get bigger, then smaller, then after a brief
refractory period of up to fifteen minutes, huge again. So
right now it's just a hand gesture. Next week they're
going to say the border wall isn't the only thing
(14:51):
Trump can get up and and by and by election night,
Obama is going to be like this guy's dick.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
It is small.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Oh okay, okay, but so what Trump will just deny it?
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Jordan.
Speaker 17 (15:06):
I don't think that's gonna be enough, because Obama knows
this game plan. He's going to say, prove it, show
us the Gulf certificate.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
Oh, I would be I'd be careful, Ronnie. Trump might
actually whip out his genitals.
Speaker 17 (15:25):
Right well, if he does, that would be a microaggression.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
You see, you see how easy this is.
Speaker 17 (15:36):
This is not hot at all, just like Trump's penis.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
Okay, all right, okay, look, Ronnie, I don't think it's
going to be effective to ignore policy and just accuse
your opponents of having small decks. I mean, whatever happened
to when they go low we go high?
Speaker 17 (15:55):
Oh yeah, whatever happened to that brilliant twenty sixteen strategy
that totally walked out for that? I mean, fasic Jordan,
taking the moral high ground doesn't work anymore, just like
Trump's dick.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Great political this course, Ronnie, shang everybody, and we come back.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
We try to interview with Tim who what else?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Go away?
Speaker 15 (16:20):
This is.
Speaker 14 (16:40):
A back to the Daily Jack.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
It's a few miles away from the convention.
Speaker 5 (16:44):
Here is Chicago and all the Democratic stars and our
grace Coolan Schmid went over to try to interview one
of the biggest.
Speaker 9 (16:52):
I came to the convention with a dream to interview
Tim Wallas, also known as America's Death.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
This is America's dad quote, big Dad energy, Big Dad energy.
Speaker 9 (17:04):
Unfortunately, America's Dad seemed to be a very difficult interview
to get.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Governor Waltz. Governor Watz, Governor Waltz. Governor Waltz is doing
his best job of ignoring me right now.
Speaker 9 (17:16):
If I was going to catch Tim Walls, I needed
to lure him in with a trap that a dad
could not resist. Can anyone help me with this pie
for my date?
Speaker 5 (17:27):
Shoot? Shoot?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Shoot?
Speaker 9 (17:29):
Did anyone know how to use a studfinder? Does anyone
know how to fill out a baseball.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Score sheet by hand?
Speaker 9 (17:39):
Does anyone want this copy of Rudy on Blu Ray?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Come on, I know you want it.
Speaker 9 (17:50):
And now we wait?
Speaker 1 (17:54):

Speaker 8 (19:22):
Thank you guys.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
When we come back, Governor west Or, let me go
to Mayor on the show up my way?
Speaker 14 (19:29):
Huh, welcome back to the Daily Show. I guess tonight
is the Democratic governor of Maryland.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
Please welcome Governor Wes Moore. Wow, Ah, that's a Midwest
(20:15):
love that.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
This must be a democratic audience here.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
We can check on that. I'm not sure West. Let
me get this straight. You are a Rhodes scholar, a
college football athlete, an Army combat veteran, a nonprofit CEO,
and a governor of Maryland. Fair to say, the most
(20:42):
impressive resume on LinkedIn.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I don't know, man, I've seen yours yet.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Yeah, this is a people like an improv teacher for
ten years. Then they're going to be very impressed. You're
speaking tonight at the convention.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I'm speaking tonight. Yes.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
I spent a little time over there talking to people yesterday,
and there is an energy. People keep talking about this vibe.
I'm curious what you've seen and do you think this
energy now is actually going to translate into electoral success.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
It will, and the vibe and the energy is real
because I think both people see that there is a
clear path to victory and they understand what's at stake.
I think that we have this kind of unique thing
that's happening right now where we both have the moment
and you have the candidate, where you have both the
moment of people understanding that we're talking about the ideas
(21:40):
of economic freedoms, We're talking about the fact that we
should be a country that should be respected. We're talking
about we should be a country that actually has a chance,
where the idea of an American dream shouldn't be a
punchline for communities.
Speaker 15 (21:56):
Right.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
And and we have a candidate whose life embodies fighting
for freedoms, whose life embodies protecting us from predators, whose
life embodies standing up and raising her hand when the
country asked her to. And so I think this combination
that we have right now or Vice President Harris and
(22:20):
Governor Wallace is great because it's like, this is what
victory feels like, and this will mean being probably a healthy.
Speaker 5 (22:30):
Sounds like you're measuring some drapes here, is that right?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Well, no, because we have work to do, you know,
and listen. And I remember, you know, when I joined
the army when I was seventeen years old. In fact,
I and like real talk, real talk. When I first joined,
I was so young my mother had to sign the
paperwork for me. Really yeah, But after my teenage year
she signed whatever paperwork they army put in front of her.
(22:53):
It was actually pretty easy. But we learned something. There
is this idea that nothing is given, everything is earned.
Nothing is given, everything is earned, right, And I think
the way we are looking at this race right now
is we've got to go earn it. We've got to
go earn it with every voter, We've got to go
earn it with every community, We've got to go earn
it with every constituency. And we have now seventy six
(23:16):
days to go out there and earn it. And that's
exactly what you plan on doing now, I.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
Think I will say though there there's an excitement, but
a criticism is there's not a lot of policy right now.
And there's a big question, how would the Kamala Harris
administration look different than what the Biden administration would look like?
Do you see this as a continuation of the Biden
policies or a marked difference with the Kamala Harris administration.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Well, one thing, I want to be fair, the policies
and the impacts that we've seen fromant President Biden and
the Biden Harris administration have been pretty remarkable. And so
we cannot this idea, this idea that the vice president
in order to win or order to have a successful presidency,
should do some hard pivot from the work that her
(24:04):
and President Biden did together. I would just say, the
only problem with that argument is facts on on your side.
Right that. Let's forget when when the presidents of go
over we just finished, we almost had an attempted coup
in this country.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
I know I was there.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Yes you are, Yes, you are.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
Working, working, to be clear working.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Yes, I'm glad we established that difference.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
To be clear, this goes on tape and the election
doesn't go the way you want. I want it to
be very clear.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
But I think the idea of her putting out policies,
I think she's already begun to do that. She's already
talked about things like she is going to have an
expansion of the child tax credit to six thousand dollars, which,
by the way, which would be one of the most
which will she enact that. When she enacts that, that
is going to be one of the most effective ways
to fight child poverty that we have seen in this
nation's history. So she's already starting to put things out
(24:57):
that are really important, get up their exciting, do you imagine?
Speaker 5 (25:00):
And so in Maryland, you've been pushing some pretty progressive
angles when it comes to climate change, gun control, healthcare.
Do you see the Harris administration following suit and helping
in that way.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Well, I think that everything we've gotten done in Maryland
has been because we've had a great partner in the
Bidenhairs administration. I mean, look at what's happened in our state.
When I was inaugurated, Maryland was ranked forty third in
the country in unemployment. Right now, for twelve straight months,
Maryland has amongst the lowest unemployment rates in the entire country.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Who are.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Our unemployment rate right now is two point eight percent.
That we said we have now have a legalized cannabis
market inside the state of Maryland. But I said, I said,
there's no way that we are going to celebrate the
benefits of legalization if we do not address the consequences
of criminalization.
Speaker 11 (25:52):
And so and so about you know, a couple months ago,
I signed the largest map pardon for cannabis convictions in
the history of the United States. But the reason the
reason I bring those things up is this, it was
all done because I had the right partner in Washington.
(26:15):
I had a White House that actually saw us, that
worked with us, and so all the momentum that we
are seeing when it comes to economic growth, the momentum
Maryland now has the fastest drop in homicides and violent
crimes in the entire country right now. This is all
happening because we have the right kind of partner that
we need in Washington.
Speaker 5 (26:36):
And to be clear, is now an appropriate time to
celebrate the legalization of marijuana? Oh, I've justerved. My parents
are in the audience. I just want to sign off
from a governor in case I choose to partake. I'm curious.
As an army veteran, Tim Waltz is catching some flack
(26:59):
from p on the right about, as they would characterize it,
a mischaracterizing of his credentials as a vet. Is there
any amount of service that Republicans won't criticize, Like, how
do you see that?
Speaker 1 (27:15):
I mean, listen, is disappointing, it's disingenuous, and frankly, it's
pretty dangerous. And particularly, I'm gonna be very honest, the
fact that this is coming from jd Vance is actually comical.
And I'm gonna tell you why. Jd Vance and I
deeply respect the service of Corporal jd Vance. The work
that he did in the military. He should also deeply
(27:37):
respect the service of sergeant Major Tim Wallace.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
Well, and I'm not as I'm not as well versed
in the pecking order, but it seems like sergeant majors
are pretty good.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, you know, like you know, listen, when you join
the military, if you stay in for a certain amount
of time, you hit corporal. Right in, one percent of
all noncommissioned officers will hit the rank of sergeant major. Okay,
so this is just fat most people. If you stay
in long enough, you hit corporal.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Oh oh, I say, stop wasting on that couch, right,
that's right, that's right.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
But you know, but I do, and it goes back
to this whole idea of patriotism, which I do. Listen,
I I serve my country and I let soldiers in
combat in Afghanistan. I'm deeply proud of my service. I'm
I am. I am in love with my country. I
love this country. And I just find it really interesting
(28:49):
that you know that we're watching on the other side
where there's like the idea of patriotism means like having
sexual relations with the flag on the side, which which
by the way, just just a total tie comment. I
don't know what is up with that ticket and their
obsession with fabrics.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
They they really they must love the feel on the skin.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I love the feel on the skin. Nothing like it.
Speaker 5 (29:15):
Yeah, the soldiers do they respect? Somebody humping the flags
an action of disrespect. I saw you post about your
speech tonight that was gonna be tough. I'm curious what
you have in store. I'm also curious in watching this,
who the audience is for the dance.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
You know, I think a lot of the audience is
going to be for me. It's the people who are
the disaffected. It's the people who you know, when we
say people who are undecided, it's not even just the
people who are undecided between Vice President Kamala Harris and
Donald Trump. It's the people who are undecided. They're going
to go out to the polls, you know. And I
tell you this is it's actually very personal me because
(29:51):
you know, when I ran for governor, I had some
family members who I had to convince the vote for me.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
Really.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Oh yeah, real talk. And isn't that I'm not cool
my family.
Speaker 19 (30:01):
That that might be a little bit family, but but
I had to convince them to vote, Like I don't
come I don't come from a political family.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I don't come from a political background. Uh, that's not something.
It's it's not like like I have members of my
family who are like, oh man, election Day was last week. Yeah,
but that's real, you know what I mean. And I
think that's real for a lot of folks. I think
that the the demo that we've got to speak to
are the ones, frankly, who still hold a measure of
skepticism in their heart, who look at the history of
(30:34):
this country and say, you know what, this country hasn't
always been fair, and we have to be honest and
look at them and say, you're right that they can say,
you know what, the history of this country has been uneven,
and you have to look at them and say, spot on.
Speaker 18 (30:47):
However, however, we we do have to be clear that
you can hold that skepticism in your heart, and you should,
but that does not mean disengage.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Because the people of some of the greatest patriots that
we have had in our history are people who actually
understood the measure of brokenness that we had in our politics,
and who still showed up every day and fought for
a better country. That's what we need.
Speaker 5 (31:27):
Some have said you might have aspirations for that big
office someday. After watching politics over the last twelve years,
I guess my question would be.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Why I get to tell you I am a I
cannot be more excited to have Kamala Harris to b
the next president United States. And let me tell you why.
I remember when months ago when the key bridge collapsed
in Baltimore, and I remember at two or two in
(31:59):
the morning when my phone and I was told that
we now had thousands of workers who now lost their jobs,
we now had thirteen percent of my economy that was
shut down, and that we had six workers who were
fixing potholes in one hundred and eighty feet in the
air that night who were now missing. And I remember
(32:19):
one of the first calls I got that morning was
from Vice President Kamala Harris. I cannot tell you enough
how much it means to have a vice president, And
the President called me that morning as well. First phone
call I got from the White House was at three
point thirty that morning. As a chief executive, as someone
who believes in my state and believes in our people,
(32:41):
I cannot tell you enough how much it means to
have a White House that is willing to be your
partner in the work, and that's willing to support you
in net work, and who understands that everybody should be
seen and supported, whether they voted for you or not.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Governor west Boer, love will flick back.
Speaker 5 (33:04):
We were right back after that.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
That's our Selsey tonight. What is tomorrow for the final
night at the Day End's day? When we go live?
Speaker 5 (33:32):
I love it thir day with your host Good Stewart.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Oh here it is.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I love it is that Obama, while the crying polarization
of the country did make a you know what joke.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
But with Obama, because he's so classy, it seemed really
funny to make the anatomy joke.
Speaker 12 (33:50):
Was officially talking about crowd sizes, but was clearly something
else underneath it.
Speaker 5 (33:55):
You know what he was doing.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
He was being slick right there, being slick when we're president.

Democratic National Conventions broadcast with your host Jordan Clover.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
Yeah, welcome to the Daily Show. I oh oh, we
(00:59):
are hearing Sicago.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
Everybody allay? Oh wait, I gotta say, I gotta say
this week has been lovely for me personally because I
spent some seriously formative years living in Chicago doing comedy.
So yes, yes, thank you. This city is in my blood.
(01:23):
And by that I mean I suffer from a Duck's
hot dog induced cholesterol problem. Worth it. But we're here
to talk about the Democratic National Convention, so let's get
into Indecision.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Twenty twenty four.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
Yesterday, it was night two of the DNC, and the
positive vibes were still going strong. People were dancing, they
were singing, they were cheering, they were putting in visiline.
In poor Mastard, He's thinking, there's twenty thousand people in
(02:05):
this arena. There's no way the camera's is going to
be pointed at me for two seconds while I take
on my visil line. I mean in front of the
whole world. You know, his dentist was like, the best
part of the Visil line is that no one will ever.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Know you have it.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
Yes, I mean, who is the cameraman who staked out
this guy for thirty hours just to get that two
second shot? You know, this is a convention, not a
planet Earth shoots.
Speaker 7 (02:35):
Watch the aging Liberals slowly prepare his mouth to attract
to meet.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Now, the actual purpose of the convention is to officially
nominate the party's presidential ticket, and they do that through
a state role call. Here's what that looked like at
the Republican Convention a few weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Pursuing to the announcement of the delegation and the rules
and procedures of this convention.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Oklahoma forty three votes President Trump. Okay, I get it.
A lady who runs an orphanage counts the votes and
that's that. But last night the Democrats changed things up
a bit.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Georgia, how do you catch your vote?
Speaker 7 (03:26):
Jeez, ladies and gentlemen, we are need today.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Ahead.
Speaker 8 (03:36):
Who is stuck se turn out the water?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Bo whoo?
Speaker 5 (03:46):
Who I didn't know politics was so lych. I'm gonna
start voting. I just know that when little John wrote
this song. He was thinking to himself, this will absolutely rip.
At the twenty twenty four Democrat Natural Convention. I'd love
to hear someone explaining to the older white delegates who
(04:08):
little John is. Who's a rapper?
Speaker 9 (04:11):
Mom?
Speaker 5 (04:12):
You know that musical genre invented by lin Manuel Miranda.
They actually had a DJ spinning song from each state
as they came up. He played Motown Philly for Pennsylvania,
a Chapel Rohan song for her home state of Missouri.
Iowa probably had Happy Birthday or some shit. Not a
(04:34):
big music state. Personally, I can't wait to see my
home state of Michigan show. Yeah, palms are sweating, mom, spaghetti,
you got the mic, Michigan. Make me proud, Michigan.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
How do you cast your vote?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
The origin together, Michigan?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Chess threes gent.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Twenty five posts?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
What are you doing?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
You embarrassed usn't front of Illinois, Michigan. Come on, Michigan,
how did you mess that up? You can't say a
simple number, but you know how to say ipsil Annie.
Come on, this is why you go to rehearsal, ladies.
(05:38):
You literally only had one shot and you missed your
chance to blow this opportunity comes.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Once in a lifetime.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Yo, you know what, Let's see if Illinois did any better.
Speaker 10 (05:56):
The great state of Illinois, Verry stay home up for
presidents including President Frock Obama, the first place of skyscrapers
in the adopted.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Home of Superman.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Okay, started out strong. Seems like a pretty steep drop
off from presidents and skyscrapers to the adopted home of
a made up comic book character. I mean you had
nothing in between that, Like Michael Jordan, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
He JV.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
JAV Come on, I mean, last time I checked, there's
no Superman steakhouse in Chicago. For more on the DNC
roll Call, let's go live now to the Illinois Delegation
with Desi leideck.
Speaker 11 (07:02):
Zie V.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
I gotta know what you think at the adopted home
of Superman and what do you make of that choice?
Speaker 12 (07:18):
Well, that was a huge missed opportunity, Jordan. The committee
claims that this was the best they could come up with.
But there's so many better options when you're talking about
a great state like Illinois.
Speaker 5 (07:33):
Right obviously, of course, So what would you have gone with?
Speaker 12 (07:38):
Well, I've been here since Monday, so I'm officially an
expert on Illinois history. How about Illinois, home of the
notorious serial killer John Wayne Gasey.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Don't think that would have played bezie Okay?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Okay?
Speaker 12 (07:58):
Or Illinois where four of our last ten governors went
to prision?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
I don't think that one's better.
Speaker 12 (08:12):
Okay, Fine, what about Illinois and the winner?
Speaker 2 (08:16):
You'll phrase your tits off?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Okay, I think we're good.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
Deasilonick, everybody, let's move on. I want to move on
because after the roll call, it was time for the speeches,
and the headliners were Barack and Michelle Obama.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
America Hope is making a comeback.
Speaker 8 (08:42):
America's running for a new chapter, America's running que better story.
We are ready for President Kamala Harris.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
You know what I almost forgot how charming and inspirational
the Obamas are. Frankly, it's a shot of adrenaline to
see these masters of the craft. You sort of want
to sit in it. You know, I almost don't want
to listen to anybody else. But you know what the
Democrats have been telling us, they have a deep bench.
So let's see these exciting up and comers tap into
(09:23):
the energy and the charisma the Obamas.
Speaker 13 (09:25):
In my state, we like things spicy, a little chilly
on everything, a little pick in our campaigns.
Speaker 14 (09:35):
And let me tell you, we are feeling in fuego
right now.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
You know what, maybe another quick hit of that Obama
arm for a second.
Speaker 13 (10:01):
We believe that true freedom gives each of us the
right to make decisions about our own life, how we worship,
what our family looks like, how many kids we have,
who we marry, And we believe that freedom requires us
to recognize that other people have the freedom to make
(10:23):
choices that are different than ours.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
That's okay, oh.
Speaker 15 (10:31):
Oh oh, oh oh.
Speaker 7 (10:40):
Oh, that's the good stuff, you know.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Inject that hope and changing shit into my veins. Whoa,
you know, but I can't just get high off these
guys all night. You know, there's other products out there,
like like Kamala Harris's husband, Doug Emma. You know, yeah,
why don't I give him a chance to touch my
(11:07):
heart with his moving story of the first time he
called Kamala for a date.
Speaker 16 (11:11):
I got Kamala's voicemail and I just started rambling, Hey
it's Doug, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
That sure is a Doug. Has there ever been a
more guy named Doug. In history, if your name's Doug,
this is who you are. But maybe maybe we're asking
too much of Doug. He's a political spouse. You don't
expect a political spouse to be able to rile up
(11:50):
a crowd.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
I want to know.
Speaker 8 (11:53):
I want to know who's gonna tell him, who's gonna
tell him that's the job.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
He's currently seeking.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Might just be one of those black jobs.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Oh that's not a Doug. Uh, not an ounce of
Doug on it. Don't the Democrats have anyone else who
can tap into that cool Obama swagger. Please welcome Senate
Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. No, No, that's a dog.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
That is a dog.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
I'm sorry. When you see these two up on stage,
it's very clear that for all the talk Democrats have
about not looking back, they sure love to live in
two thousand and eight. I frankly, who can blame them?
Nobody else in their party can capture their vision of
the future or speak to their values, and perhaps most importantly,
(12:54):
nobody else can get under Trump's skin in just the
right way.
Speaker 13 (12:59):
There's the child thish nicknames, the crazy conspiracy theories, this
weird obsession with crowd sizes, oh oh.
Speaker 17 (13:14):
Oh oh oh oh h.
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Yeah, I see what he did there. Huh yeah, yeah,
that's that's brutal. That's the second time this summer the
Secret Service has failed to protect trug from a lethal attack.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
For more on the dick joke heard round the Beam,
let's go live to Ronnie Chang.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Ronny, Ronnick, I gotta stay.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
If you get online or on TV, everyone is talking
about that dick joke.
Speaker 17 (14:04):
That's right, Jordan, that's a new democratic messaging. Weird is out.
Trump's got a small penis is in.
Speaker 5 (14:10):
Oh okay, so that's it. They're not using weird anymore.
Speaker 17 (14:15):
Oh no, no, no, sorry for the confusion. It's both
his penis is small and weird.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Oh okay, all right, all right, so that's it. No policy,
it's just gonna be immature innuendo from Noah.
Speaker 17 (14:29):
Yes, the dick joke's a major attack line, and they're
only gonna get bigger, then smaller, then after a brief
refractory period of up to fifteen minutes, huge again. So
right now it's just a hand gesture. Next week they're
going to say the border wall isn't the only thing
(14:51):
Trump can get up and and by and by election night,
Obama is going to be like this guy's dick.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
It is small.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Oh okay, okay, but so what Trump will just deny it?
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Jordan.
Speaker 17 (15:06):
I don't think that's gonna be enough, because Obama knows
this game plan. He's going to say, prove it, show
us the Gulf certificate.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
Oh, I would be I'd be careful, Ronnie. Trump might
actually whip out his genitals.
Speaker 17 (15:25):
Right well, if he does, that would be a microaggression.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
You see, you see how easy this is.
Speaker 17 (15:36):
This is not hot at all, just like Trump's penis.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
Okay, all right, okay, look, Ronnie, I don't think it's
going to be effective to ignore policy and just accuse
your opponents of having small decks. I mean, whatever happened
to when they go low we go high?
Speaker 17 (15:55):
Oh yeah, whatever happened to that brilliant twenty sixteen strategy
that totally walked out for that? I mean, fasic Jordan,
taking the moral high ground doesn't work anymore, just like
Trump's dick.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Great political this course, Ronnie, shang everybody, and we come back.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
We try to interview with Tim who what else?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Go away?
Speaker 15 (16:20):
This is.
Speaker 14 (16:40):
A back to the Daily Jack.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
It's a few miles away from the convention.
Speaker 5 (16:44):
Here is Chicago and all the Democratic stars and our
grace Coolan Schmid went over to try to interview one
of the biggest.
Speaker 9 (16:52):
I came to the convention with a dream to interview
Tim Wallas, also known as America's Death.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
This is America's dad quote, big Dad energy, Big Dad energy.
Speaker 9 (17:04):
Unfortunately, America's Dad seemed to be a very difficult interview
to get.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Governor Waltz. Governor Watz, Governor Waltz. Governor Waltz is doing
his best job of ignoring me right now.
Speaker 9 (17:16):
If I was going to catch Tim Walls, I needed
to lure him in with a trap that a dad
could not resist. Can anyone help me with this pie
for my date?
Speaker 5 (17:27):
Shoot? Shoot?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Shoot?
Speaker 9 (17:29):
Did anyone know how to use a studfinder? Does anyone
know how to fill out a baseball.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Score sheet by hand?
Speaker 9 (17:39):
Does anyone want this copy of Rudy on Blu Ray?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Come on, I know you want it.
Speaker 9 (17:50):
And now we wait?
Speaker 1 (17:54):

Speaker 8 (19:22):
Thank you guys.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
When we come back, Governor west Or, let me go
to Mayor on the show up my way?
Speaker 14 (19:29):
Huh, welcome back to the Daily Show. I guess tonight
is the Democratic governor of Maryland.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
Please welcome Governor Wes Moore. Wow, Ah, that's a Midwest
(20:15):
love that.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
This must be a democratic audience here.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
We can check on that. I'm not sure West. Let
me get this straight. You are a Rhodes scholar, a
college football athlete, an Army combat veteran, a nonprofit CEO,
and a governor of Maryland. Fair to say, the most
(20:42):
impressive resume on LinkedIn.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I don't know, man, I've seen yours yet.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Yeah, this is a people like an improv teacher for
ten years. Then they're going to be very impressed. You're
speaking tonight at the convention.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I'm speaking tonight. Yes.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
I spent a little time over there talking to people yesterday,
and there is an energy. People keep talking about this vibe.
I'm curious what you've seen and do you think this
energy now is actually going to translate into electoral success.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
It will, and the vibe and the energy is real
because I think both people see that there is a
clear path to victory and they understand what's at stake.
I think that we have this kind of unique thing
that's happening right now where we both have the moment
and you have the candidate, where you have both the
moment of people understanding that we're talking about the ideas
(21:40):
of economic freedoms, We're talking about the fact that we
should be a country that should be respected. We're talking
about we should be a country that actually has a chance,
where the idea of an American dream shouldn't be a
punchline for communities.
Speaker 15 (21:56):
Right.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
And and we have a candidate whose life embodies fighting
for freedoms, whose life embodies protecting us from predators, whose
life embodies standing up and raising her hand when the
country asked her to. And so I think this combination
that we have right now or Vice President Harris and
(22:20):
Governor Wallace is great because it's like, this is what
victory feels like, and this will mean being probably a healthy.
Speaker 5 (22:30):
Sounds like you're measuring some drapes here, is that right?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Well, no, because we have work to do, you know,
and listen. And I remember, you know, when I joined
the army when I was seventeen years old. In fact,
I and like real talk, real talk. When I first joined,
I was so young my mother had to sign the
paperwork for me. Really yeah, But after my teenage year
she signed whatever paperwork they army put in front of her.
(22:53):
It was actually pretty easy. But we learned something. There
is this idea that nothing is given, everything is earned.
Nothing is given, everything is earned, right, And I think
the way we are looking at this race right now
is we've got to go earn it. We've got to
go earn it with every voter, We've got to go
earn it with every community, We've got to go earn
it with every constituency. And we have now seventy six
(23:16):
days to go out there and earn it. And that's
exactly what you plan on doing now, I.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
Think I will say though there there's an excitement, but
a criticism is there's not a lot of policy right now.
And there's a big question, how would the Kamala Harris
administration look different than what the Biden administration would look like?
Do you see this as a continuation of the Biden
policies or a marked difference with the Kamala Harris administration.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Well, one thing, I want to be fair, the policies
and the impacts that we've seen fromant President Biden and
the Biden Harris administration have been pretty remarkable. And so
we cannot this idea, this idea that the vice president
in order to win or order to have a successful presidency,
should do some hard pivot from the work that her
(24:04):
and President Biden did together. I would just say, the
only problem with that argument is facts on on your side.
Right that. Let's forget when when the presidents of go
over we just finished, we almost had an attempted coup
in this country.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
I know I was there.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Yes you are, Yes, you are.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
Working, working, to be clear working.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Yes, I'm glad we established that difference.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
To be clear, this goes on tape and the election
doesn't go the way you want. I want it to
be very clear.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
But I think the idea of her putting out policies,
I think she's already begun to do that. She's already
talked about things like she is going to have an
expansion of the child tax credit to six thousand dollars, which,
by the way, which would be one of the most
which will she enact that. When she enacts that, that
is going to be one of the most effective ways
to fight child poverty that we have seen in this
nation's history. So she's already starting to put things out
(24:57):
that are really important, get up their exciting, do you imagine?
Speaker 5 (25:00):
And so in Maryland, you've been pushing some pretty progressive
angles when it comes to climate change, gun control, healthcare.
Do you see the Harris administration following suit and helping
in that way.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Well, I think that everything we've gotten done in Maryland
has been because we've had a great partner in the
Bidenhairs administration. I mean, look at what's happened in our state.
When I was inaugurated, Maryland was ranked forty third in
the country in unemployment. Right now, for twelve straight months,
Maryland has amongst the lowest unemployment rates in the entire country.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Who are.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Our unemployment rate right now is two point eight percent.
That we said we have now have a legalized cannabis
market inside the state of Maryland. But I said, I said,
there's no way that we are going to celebrate the
benefits of legalization if we do not address the consequences
of criminalization.
Speaker 11 (25:52):
And so and so about you know, a couple months ago,
I signed the largest map pardon for cannabis convictions in
the history of the United States. But the reason the
reason I bring those things up is this, it was
all done because I had the right partner in Washington.
(26:15):
I had a White House that actually saw us, that
worked with us, and so all the momentum that we
are seeing when it comes to economic growth, the momentum
Maryland now has the fastest drop in homicides and violent
crimes in the entire country right now. This is all
happening because we have the right kind of partner that
we need in Washington.
Speaker 5 (26:36):
And to be clear, is now an appropriate time to
celebrate the legalization of marijuana? Oh, I've justerved. My parents
are in the audience. I just want to sign off
from a governor in case I choose to partake. I'm curious.
As an army veteran, Tim Waltz is catching some flack
(26:59):
from p on the right about, as they would characterize it,
a mischaracterizing of his credentials as a vet. Is there
any amount of service that Republicans won't criticize, Like, how
do you see that?
Speaker 1 (27:15):
I mean, listen, is disappointing, it's disingenuous, and frankly, it's
pretty dangerous. And particularly, I'm gonna be very honest, the
fact that this is coming from jd Vance is actually comical.
And I'm gonna tell you why. Jd Vance and I
deeply respect the service of Corporal jd Vance. The work
that he did in the military. He should also deeply
(27:37):
respect the service of sergeant Major Tim Wallace.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
Well, and I'm not as I'm not as well versed
in the pecking order, but it seems like sergeant majors
are pretty good.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, you know, like you know, listen, when you join
the military, if you stay in for a certain amount
of time, you hit corporal. Right in, one percent of
all noncommissioned officers will hit the rank of sergeant major. Okay,
so this is just fat most people. If you stay
in long enough, you hit corporal.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Oh oh, I say, stop wasting on that couch, right,
that's right, that's right.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
But you know, but I do, and it goes back
to this whole idea of patriotism, which I do. Listen,
I I serve my country and I let soldiers in
combat in Afghanistan. I'm deeply proud of my service. I'm
I am. I am in love with my country. I
love this country. And I just find it really interesting
(28:49):
that you know that we're watching on the other side
where there's like the idea of patriotism means like having
sexual relations with the flag on the side, which which
by the way, just just a total tie comment. I
don't know what is up with that ticket and their
obsession with fabrics.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
They they really they must love the feel on the skin.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I love the feel on the skin. Nothing like it.
Speaker 5 (29:15):
Yeah, the soldiers do they respect? Somebody humping the flags
an action of disrespect. I saw you post about your
speech tonight that was gonna be tough. I'm curious what
you have in store. I'm also curious in watching this,
who the audience is for the dance.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
You know, I think a lot of the audience is
going to be for me. It's the people who are
the disaffected. It's the people who you know, when we
say people who are undecided, it's not even just the
people who are undecided between Vice President Kamala Harris and
Donald Trump. It's the people who are undecided. They're going
to go out to the polls, you know. And I
tell you this is it's actually very personal me because
(29:51):
you know, when I ran for governor, I had some
family members who I had to convince the vote for me.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
Really.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Oh yeah, real talk. And isn't that I'm not cool
my family.
Speaker 19 (30:01):
That that might be a little bit family, but but
I had to convince them to vote, Like I don't
come I don't come from a political family.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I don't come from a political background. Uh, that's not something.
It's it's not like like I have members of my
family who are like, oh man, election Day was last week. Yeah,
but that's real, you know what I mean. And I
think that's real for a lot of folks. I think
that the the demo that we've got to speak to
are the ones, frankly, who still hold a measure of
skepticism in their heart, who look at the history of
(30:34):
this country and say, you know what, this country hasn't
always been fair, and we have to be honest and
look at them and say, you're right that they can say,
you know what, the history of this country has been uneven,
and you have to look at them and say, spot on.
Speaker 18 (30:47):
However, however, we we do have to be clear that
you can hold that skepticism in your heart, and you should,
but that does not mean disengage.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Because the people of some of the greatest patriots that
we have had in our history are people who actually
understood the measure of brokenness that we had in our politics,
and who still showed up every day and fought for
a better country. That's what we need.
Speaker 5 (31:27):
Some have said you might have aspirations for that big
office someday. After watching politics over the last twelve years,
I guess my question would be.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Why I get to tell you I am a I
cannot be more excited to have Kamala Harris to b
the next president United States. And let me tell you why.
I remember when months ago when the key bridge collapsed
in Baltimore, and I remember at two or two in
(31:59):
the morning when my phone and I was told that
we now had thousands of workers who now lost their jobs,
we now had thirteen percent of my economy that was
shut down, and that we had six workers who were
fixing potholes in one hundred and eighty feet in the
air that night who were now missing. And I remember
(32:19):
one of the first calls I got that morning was
from Vice President Kamala Harris. I cannot tell you enough
how much it means to have a vice president, And
the President called me that morning as well. First phone
call I got from the White House was at three
point thirty that morning. As a chief executive, as someone
who believes in my state and believes in our people,
(32:41):
I cannot tell you enough how much it means to
have a White House that is willing to be your
partner in the work, and that's willing to support you
in net work, and who understands that everybody should be
seen and supported, whether they voted for you or not.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Governor west Boer, love will flick back.
Speaker 5 (33:04):
We were right back after that.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
That's our Selsey tonight. What is tomorrow for the final
night at the Day End's day? When we go live?
Speaker 5 (33:32):
I love it thir day with your host Good Stewart.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Oh here it is.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I love it is that Obama, while the crying polarization
of the country did make a you know what joke.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
But with Obama, because he's so classy, it seemed really
funny to make the anatomy joke.
Speaker 12 (33:50):
Was officially talking about crowd sizes, but was clearly something
else underneath it.
Speaker 5 (33:55):
You know what he was doing.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
He was being slick right there, being slick when we're president.
