  • - Welcome to "The Daily Show: Global Edition."

  • I'm Trevor Noah. Before we begin,

  • some news coming out of South Korea.

  • The world famous pop group BTS

  • has asked their fans not to attend their shows

  • due to the coronavirus, yeah.

  • And you know less successful bands are gonna use that

  • as an excuse when no one buys their tickets, right?

  • Yeah, it just be like, "Uh, nobody came

  • "but that's because we told them not to,

  • so this one goes out to you, Mom!"

  • (imitating guitar riff)

  • All right, here are this week's headlines.

  • Let's kick it off with NASA,

  • America's most expensive way of collecting rocks.

  • If you wanted to be an astronaut

  • when you were a little kid,

  • first of all, congratulations on being basic.

  • And secondly, this may be your big chance.

  • - You want to be an astronaut?

  • Well, you better know how to swim.

  • - NASA is looking for a new crop of cadets

  • willing to take the plunge

  • in hopes of reaching outer space.

  • - The odds of being selected are pretty low.

  • NASA only needs about 20 trainees

  • for the next class.

  • Officials say degrees in math, science,

  • and engineering are required,

  • and you have to have a master's degree.

  • So, if you think you've got what it takes

  • to survive not just the neutral buoyancy pool

  • but an actual mission in space,

  • well, the next astronaut class opens up on Monday.

  • (chuckles) Apply then.

  • - (imitating chuckle)

  • Why are we laughing? (continues chuckling)

  • Thank God this guy is covering NASA and not a tornado.

  • "Everyone here is now homeless or dead."

  • (chuckling)

  • But yes, NASA is looking for new astronauts.

  • But you can only apply if you have a master's degree

  • and are in peak physical condition.

  • Basically, you have to be an athletic nerd,

  • which doesn't exist.

  • That would be like Neil deGrasse Mike Tyson.

  • That's what you've gotta be.

  • (imitating Tyson) "Yeah, it's time to discuss supernovas."

  • (laughter)

  • I'm joking, Mike. Now, uh... I'll be honest.

  • I think NASA's standards are too high.

  • Like, you shouldn't need

  • a master's degree to go to space.

  • You just need two things.

  • One, you need to know how to walk in slow motion.

  • Just like...

  • And two, you need courage.

  • That's all you need. You know who NASA should hire?

  • Those people who buy sushi at 7-Eleven.

  • That's-- that's what you need in space.

  • "I see you aren't afraid of taking risks.

  • You want to... want to fly to Pluto?"

  • All right, in other news,

  • remember the massive admissions scandal

  • that rocked American colleges last year?

  • Well, yesterday, one big parent

  • got the biggest sentence yet.

  • - This morning, the heiress

  • to the Hot Pocket snack food fortune

  • is heading to prison after a judge handed down

  • the harshest sentence yet

  • in the college admission scandal.

  • (timer dings) ♪ Hot Pockets

  • - She understands the harm that her choices caused.

  • She understands the impact

  • that those choices had on students.

  • - Michelle Janavs sentenced to five months

  • behind bars after pleading guilty

  • to paying bribes to get her two daughters

  • admitted to elite universities.

  • - That's right, the Hot Pockets heiress

  • was sentenced to five months in prison.

  • Although, after two and a half months,

  • they'll take her out, flip her over

  • and then put her back in.

  • (laughter and applause)

  • By the way...

  • By the way, can we admit "Hot Pockets heiress"

  • is a very weird phrase that is somehow both trashy

  • and extremely upper-class at the same time.

  • You know, it's like, "Introducing the archduchess

  • of scratch-off lottery tickets."

  • (laughter)

  • Now, some people will be like,

  • "Oh, five months doesn't seem like a long time in prison."

  • But it really is, especially if you're a rich white woman.

  • I mean, for them, that's basically life.

  • Think about it. By the time you get out,

  • your book club has moved on to a totally new book.

  • If you go to prison in August,

  • you'll completely miss pumpkin spice season.

  • And worst of all, your kids

  • will have completely forgotten who you are, yeah.

  • You'll be back like, "It's me, your mom!

  • The woman the nanny gives you to on the weekends, remember?"

  • But on the other hand,

  • she might come out of prison with all new ideas

  • for fillings for Hot Pockets, you know?

  • Yeah, she'll be back in the boardroom like,

  • "All right, guys, forget that ham and cheese shit.

  • "We're doing toilet wine and cigarettes, come on.

  • "Gonna put a shiv inside each one

  • "so if anyone steps to Aunt Becky,

  • they can catch a fade."

  • President Donald Trump-- still not used to saying that.

  • Last night, he flew 8,000 miles

  • for his first state visit to India.

  • Now, Trump's in India partly to negotiate a trade deal,

  • and partly to get his copy of the Kama Sutra signed.

  • Yeah, Trump and Melania use that book all the time.

  • Her favorite position is the one where she's on top

  • and he's not in the room.

  • Now, you might be wondering how would a country

  • full of brown people react to a visit from Donald Trump?

  • Well, it turns out, from the moment Trump arrived,

  • it was love at first sight.

  • - President Trump just arrived this morning

  • for a two-day visit.

  • The president received what's being called

  • a "king's welcome,"

  • orchestrated by the Indian prime minister.

  • The president headed a massive rally

  • packed with more than a hundred thousand people.

  • - A Make America Great Again rally, India-style.

  • ♪♪

  • They even blasted "Macho Man"

  • before the president took the stage,

  • and when he did, a show of affection

  • for India's prime minister.

  • - Namaste, Trump!

  • - The president is overwhelmingly popular

  • here in India, where his pro-business,

  • tough-on-terror image is widely admired.

  • - I happen to like Prime Minister Modi a lot.

  • He says between the stadium and-- and the, uh...

  • airport, we'll have about seven million people,

  • so it's gonna be very exciting.

  • - Seven million people

  • came out to see Trump

  • go from the airport to the stadium?

  • That's impressive.

  • Although, to be fair, it's also India.

  • There's seven million people between any two locations.

  • (laughter) Yeah, I mean...

  • the line at Indian Starbucks is seven million people.

  • There are Indian brides right now who are like, "No, Daddy,

  • "I just want a small wedding.

  • No more than seven million people."

  • He's like, "Okay, Anushka, first cousins only."

  • But it is true that Donald Trump is very popular in India.

  • All right? Some like him

  • because of his anti-Muslim rhetoric,

  • some like him because of his business savvy,

  • and all of them like him

  • because his skin looks like tikka masala.

  • laughter) And since India is so fond...

  • (cheering and applause) so fond...

  • of President Donald Jaipur Trump,

  • they pulled out all the stops for his visit.

  • - At India's famous Taj Mahal,

  • workers paint, spruce, and polish.

  • Roads are renovated,

  • and nearby, the Yamuna River rises,

  • as millions of liters of water are released

  • to cover its foul, polluted smell.

  • - Preparations included a hastily built wall

  • that critics say was meant to block the view of a slum,

  • keeping thousands of poor people out of sight.

  • - Yeah, India is trying so hard to impress Trump

  • that they're building new roads, cleaning up dams,

  • and even building a wall to hide their slums.

  • And you know Trump's gotta love that.

  • He's just like, "You see? They built a wall,

  • "and I haven't seen a single Mexican.

  • It works, folks."

  • Now, India cleaning its rivers and streets for Trump

  • might seem extreme, but if you think about it,

  • this is basically what guys do

  • whenever a girl says she's coming over, right?

  • Yeah, you make the bed, pick up your clothes,

  • hide all your junk in the closet.

  • Then she calls and says she can't make it,

  • and you're like, "Damn it!

  • So I flushed the toilet for nothing?"

  • So clearly, India is trying to give Trump

  • a memorable experience.

  • There was, however, one tiny culture clash

  • that Trump had to deal with.

  • - Donald Trump is in India this morning,

  • but he could be forced to go without his favorite meals

  • of burgers and steaks.

  • India's prime minister, Narendra Modi,

  • a devout vegetarian,

  • plans not to serve any meat to the president

  • during his visit.

  • One person who's familiar

  • with President Trump's eating habits

  • has told the media they're worried

  • about how he'll cope with the lack of meat, saying,

  • "I have never seen him eat a vegetable."

  • (laughter)

  • - I honestly don't know what's stranger...

  • The fact that Trump might eat vegetables

  • or that people are actually worried about how it'll go.

  • Because you realize the news wasn't even snarky about it.

  • They weren't like, "Ha-ha!

  • The president has to eat vegetables!"

  • They were like, "Yo, if Donald Trump eats broccoli,

  • he could die." (laughter)

  • So, this is gonna be hard on Trump.

  • And you know what I was thinking is what's worse for him,

  • is that cows are so sacred in India,

  • that they're allowed to just wander around in the city.

  • So can you imagine how hard that's gonna be for him?

  • He hasn't eaten beef for two days,

  • and then he's just gonna start seeing cows in the street,

  • and he's gonna be like, "Oh, my God, I'm hallucinating!

  • "All the cows I've eaten have come back to haunt me!

  • I'm sorry, cows! I'm so sorry!

  • So sorry."

  • But I will say, I'm impressed, because despite the beef issue,

  • Trump is making the best of his India trip.

  • In fact, he even made an effort to show the Indian people

  • how much he respects them by trying to speak their language.

  • And it went about as well as you would think.

  • - India welcomes us

  • at the world's largest cricket stadium

  • right here in "Abbabad."

  • Nam-oo-stay. Chi-wala.

  • Gushard. Sardar Patel.

  • "Arshrom." Suchin-tendo-kur.

  • Goosholah. Go-ah.

  • Dewali.

  • As the great religious teacher

  • Swami Vive-kamunund once said...

  • (laughter)

  • - Oh, man!

  • Oh, okay, even if that pronunciation was right,

  • that facial expression was so wrong.

  • That looked like the most exercise he's gotten in decades.

  • Just like, "Kum-kum-mund-nun...

  • "Kum-mund-nun... All right!

  • That's my steps for the day. I'm done."

  • Oh, man.

  • Now, now, this was really interesting.

  • After Trump butchered half the Hindi dictionary,

  • Indian Twitter lost their minds, right?

  • People were coming on, like, "Dude, it's not Nam-oo-stay.

  • "It's Namaste.

  • Who messes up Namaste and says nam-oo-stay?"

  • But to those Indians, I say please, don't be mad.

  • All right, Trump may not be able to pronounce Hindi words,

  • but he can't pronounce English words, either, so...

  • he's an equal opportunity offender.

  • And besides, think about it. It would have been way scarier

  • if Trump had come out all fluent in Hindi.

  • Can you imagine if he just came out and he was like:

  • (impersonating Trump speaking fluent Hindi)

  • Bigly.

  • It would have been weird. (cheering and applause)

  • So... that was day one

  • of President Trump's trip to India, and you know what?

  • I'm proud of the president.

  • I'm really proud of him for teaching us a valuable lesson,

  • and that is, no matter how old you are,

  • you can still go to new places, make new friends,

  • and have new mind-blowing experiences

  • like eating a carrot for the first time.

  • And to that I say, nam-oo-stay.

  • We'll be right back.

  • - Welcome back to "The Daily Show."

  • One of the most interesting stories of the 2020 election

  • has been the rise of Pete Buttigieg.

  • And no matter what you think of his candidacy,

  • you have to agree that it's pretty amazing

  • that a gay man can be a serious contender

  • for president of the United States.

  • But what do LGBTQ voters think

  • about this moment in American politics?

  • Well, we sent Jaboukie Young-White

  • to sit down with some of them to find out.

  • - I'm here in New York City, gay capital of the world--

  • except for Berlin, San Francisco or Congress--

  • here to talk to some LGBTQ voters--

  • Anyway, I've come to the Leslie Lohman

  • to talk with LGBTQ voters

  • about finally getting the gay presidential candidate

  • we've all dreamed of.

  • So if someone told you ten years ago

  • that there was going to be a gay presidential candidate,

  • how do you feel like you would have reacted?

  • Because I know, for me, I would have been like,

  • "Who told you I'm gay? Was it Kevin?"

  • - Oh, I would... I would have believed it,

  • but I would think it would be a woman, though.

  • - Ten years ago, Barack Obama was still

  • evolving about marriage.

  • It's a real leap to think that ten years later

  • we would have a viable queer candidate

  • for president of the United States.

  • - But being proud of Pete

  • doesn't mean that we're voting for him.

  • Raise your hand if you plan on voting

  • for Mayor Pete in the primary.

  • - I don't think it's possible for me.

  • There's nothing that he could do to make you vote for him?

  • - No.

  • - Our community actually has a bit of a shameful history

  • in the sense that gay white men

  • have historically marginalized the contributions

  • of trans women and trans men and people of color.

  • I am trans, and, you know, knowing

  • that there is gonna be a... you know,

  • a cis gay presidential candidate doesn't do anything

  • to make my life any safer as a trans woman.

  • - And that's the divide.

  • According to my unofficial poll,

  • the type of gay you are determines

  • whether you trust Pete to represent you.

  • A lot of people will say that

  • he's not queer enough, or he's not gay enough.

  • - What does that even mean?

  • - He's gay enough if we can hold his feet to the fire

  • to make sure that our voices are heard.

  • - I live in South Bend, and I work

  • with Black Lives Matter South Bend, and those are--

  • They don't have trust for Pete.

  • - So you want him to wear a leather harness,

  • and you want him and Chasten to open their relationship,

  • and you want them to be poly?

  • - We just want him to actually pay attention

  • to the policing problem.

  • - I had a face-to-face with him, and I asked him,

  • "What are you doing about the police brutality in Indiana?"

  • And he kept saying, "Well, this is what I want you to do.

  • I want you to push me, I want..."

  • I don't need to push you.

  • You know what needs to be done.

  • - Okay, so you're not asking him to be more gay.

  • You just want him to care about the margins.

  • - Correct. I want him to care about the margins,

  • and leave the Dockers at home.

  • - Pete's rainbow booty shorts are actually

  • just a pair of relaxed fit Dockers,

  • which is why I wonder if his mainstream appeal is

  • that you can kind of forget he's gay.

  • As much as we can say that Pete's brand of queerness

  • has problematic aspects, don't you think that

  • that actually makes him electable?

  • For example, look at this.

  • - That is my brand of queerness.

  • We don't have a picket fence,

  • but that looks like a picture of my husband and me.

  • - The word that's not there is "First Gay Family."

  • You know, the word that's there is "First Family."

  • That is something America can get behind, I think.

  • - I see it as a disappointingly sanitized version

  • of what it means to be gay.

  • - To a lot of critics, this looks like this.

  • - Oh...

  • - They're less a gay couple

  • and more so just, like, uh, two guys

  • who decided to make granola in their kitchen.

  • - They're clearly gay,

  • and if that's not gay enough

  • for the people in this country, I don't know what would be.

  • - So it sounds like

  • the takeaway of this conversation should be,

  • if Buttigieg does not eat his husband's ass

  • on live TV, he is not gay enough for me.

  • - I'm out. (laughter)

  • - How about this? Gay people.

  • We're basically straight.

  • - N-no.

  • - I mean, the takeaway is also that for a lot of voters,

  • you can't just choose gay.

  • You also have to think about your race.

  • - Okay. Pete Buttigieg-- black people don't like him

  • because of the police stuff

  • and homophobia or something?

  • - Black people like him.

  • - And a lot of black people don't.

  • - Pete Buttigieg.

  • A lot of black people don't like him, but some do.

  • - Can you imagine how fun it will be

  • to watch a gay, married, Midwestern mayor

  • destroy Donald Trump?

  • - Okay, I hear you.

  • Pete Buttigieg.

  • I'm taking Trump to pound town.

  • - No one wants to see that. - No.

  • - So then, what is is it?

  • - I think the takeaway should be that, um,

  • the LGBTQ community is not a monolith,

  • and, uh, you know, the first gay presidential candidate

  • means very different things

  • to very different people in our community.

  • - Whether you believe Pete is the visibility

  • we spent decades fighting for,

  • or just another centrist white guy

  • who's easy on the eyes and the police,

  • the gay community is making it clear.

  • If you want our vote,

  • you better work b--

  • (sighs) I can't-- I'm not fuckin' saying that.

  • I can't fucking that.

  • What the fuck does that even mean?

  • (cheering and applause)

  • - Jaboukie Young-White, everybody.

  • We'll be right back.

  • - Welcome back to "The Daily Show."

  • My guest tonight is a writer

  • who explores racism and privilege

  • in her "New York Times" best-selling debut novel

  • called "Such a Fun Age."

  • Please welcome Kiley Reid.

  • (music and cheering)

  • - Welcome to "The Daily Show." - Thank you for having me.

  • - Uh, congratulations on your debut novel

  • being a "New York Times" best seller.

  • Seven weeks on "The New York Times" Best Seller list.

  • - Yeah, thank you, thanks. - That's amazing.

  • (cheering and applause) And...

  • And congratulations on creating a book

  • that's not just doing well,

  • but it's creating so much buzz in the right ways.

  • You know, you have fans that include Reese Witherspoon,

  • who's made it, like, her book club book of the month.

  • You've got, uh, Lena Waithe, who bought it...

  • You know, got... bought the film rights for the book,

  • which is really fantastic. - Right.

  • Um, the book is an interesting one

  • because it opens with 25-year-old Emira,

  • who is this woman who works as a babysitter,

  • working for a white family who's very rich,

  • and things basically go wrong. - Yeah.

  • - Like, where do you even come up with a story like that?

  • Because it seems like a simple story.

  • It's like, "Oh, it's just gonna be babysitter world."

  • Then it's like, no, it turns into fake kidnapping

  • and then white privilege.

  • It's funny, but it's also deep at the same time.

  • - Right. - Where does that come from?

  • - I think that in many ways, this is a really old story.

  • A black caregiver

  • and a white woman and a white child,

  • and their interactions are really precarious and charged.

  • And from the very first chapter,

  • Emira is accused of kidnapping this child,

  • and she's humiliated.

  • And I think that, like, what makes it different

  • is someone pulls out a cell phone.

  • And people's relationship to a racist incident

  • becomes different when they see it firsthand.

  • - Right. Right.

  • Now, I don't want to spoil what happens

  • later on in the book, I will tell people

  • what really is the catalyst, in my opinion, in the story,

  • and that is you have Emira being in this place where

  • she's been accused of kidnapping this little white child.

  • Um, you also have an incident in the family

  • where there's a racist incident with the husband.

  • - Right. - The family's under siege.

  • And then the woman who's in the house, Alix,

  • calls her and says, "Hey, Emira,

  • "I need you to come and look after my child

  • "while we're trying to work through

  • this whole racism thing."

  • And then she wants to be her friend.

  • And that's really what the book is in and around.

  • - Yeah. I think so, too. Um, it's definitely--

  • I mean, that happens. You get a little crush on someone.

  • You think they seem really cool and interesting.

  • But that layer between them of "This is your employee,

  • and you have to respect her space,"

  • and that's where things get tricky.

  • - Why do you think it becomes so tricky?

  • Because I think it's hard to explain to people.

  • And it's a really wonderful book to read,

  • because it's so natural.

  • But how did you manage to capture how tricky it can be?

  • Is there a reason you went with that for the story?

  • You know, it could have been a simpler story.

  • It could have been one that didn't com--

  • contain as much complexity,

  • which would really get us into these conversations.

  • 'Cause I've read reviews from everyone,

  • of every race, every walk of life, saying,

  • "I see myself in the story in a different way."

  • - Mm-hmm. - Is there a reason you went

  • with this specific story?

  • - It's probably because I love awkward moments.

  • I just can't get enough of them. And I watch people squirm.

  • And I-- When I read something that makes me have to put

  • a book back down, those are my absolute favorite moments.

  • And so it's-it's not fortunate for my characters,

  • but that's what I love to read, yeah.

  • - Right. How many people have asked to touch your hair?

  • (laughter) - I mean...

  • I'm gonna say the limit does not exist.

  • (Trevor laughing) So many.

  • And it's all those little things that are so layered

  • in history that I love writing about.

  • - Right. Yes. So, let me ask you this.

  • If someone's reading this book, and they go,

  • "Kiley, I'm really trying, you know?

  • "I'm a white person who's really trying.

  • "I didn't even realize I'm...

  • "these microaggressions are taking place.

  • "I didn't even know that I'm offending people

  • in these moments-- I'm really trying."

  • When someone reads this book, what do you hope

  • that they would take from it that would give them

  • a greater understanding of what they're doing in the world

  • or how they're interacting with people of color?

  • - Oh, and this does happen-- at every reading I have,

  • there's a white woman who's just finished reading it,

  • and she's, like, not ready to do this whole thing with me yet,

  • and she's like, "I don't know what you want me

  • to do from this book."

  • Um, I think the biggest thing is the influence of the society

  • rather than the individual.

  • I feel that as soon as I start saying, "You're a bad person,"

  • I stop judging the systems that keep poor people poor

  • and give people permission to treat other people this way.

  • - Wow. - There's a really big racist

  • incident in the first chapter, where Emira

  • is racially profiled, but for the rest

  • of the novel, she's struggling to get health insurance.

  • And that is something that has been a problem

  • for domestic labor workers since the 1930s,

  • and before that, as well.

  • And so I think covering these bigger issues

  • of systemic racism is way more important than, you know,

  • did I say the right thing in front of my cool babysitter?

  • - It really is fascinating that you've done that,

  • because, you know, when reading through the book,

  • one thing that jumps out to me is,

  • you have this world where you've tackled an issue

  • that many people have commented on.

  • You know, I see it a lot online.

  • People saying, for instance, when there's a presidential

  • debate or when people are talking to politicians,

  • they make it seem like there are black issues...

  • - Yes. - ...and then there are issues

  • for every other American, when, in fact,

  • black people have issues like anyone else can.

  • And in this book, you seem to highlight that.

  • It's one issue of race, and then there are just issues

  • of life that anyone can face.

  • - Oh, yeah. - Was that purposeful?

  • - Oh, 100%. I think that talking about race

  • without talking about class is kind of a moot point.

  • And there's black women in the novel

  • who are wealthy and have really high respectability politics

  • and believe that Emira should want more for her life.

  • And then she has other black friends

  • who support her in everything she does.

  • And I think not including all of those differences

  • does a disservice to black women.

  • - Well, I'll tell you this, you've written a book

  • that is funny, it's engaging, uh,

  • it is wonderfully awkward in many moments.

  • You don't want to put it down. You read it so quickly.

  • Um, this is not gonna be your first bestselling novel.

  • So thank you so much for being on the show.

  • - Thank you so much for having me.

  • - A really, really wonderful read.

  • "Such a Fun Age" is available now.

  • You definitely want to go out and get it.

  • Kiley Reid, everybody. We'll be right back.

  • - Well, that's it for "The Daily Show: Global Edition."

  • I'm Trevor Noah. Before we go,

  • some news out of London

  • The city has offered to host the 2020 Sumi--

  • Summer Olympic Games if Tokyo has to cancel them

  • over the coronavirus, that's what London has said.

  • And I'm not gonna lie, I'm disappointed in you, London,

  • 'cause this is a classic player hating move.

  • Yeah, I mean, like, "Hey, girl,

  • "I couldn't help notice your man has the coronavirus.

  • You, uh, you wanna roll with me?"

  • That's trash.

- Welcome to "The Daily Show: Global Edition."
