00:00It actually looks like one of those high chairs they give kids at restaurants, you know?
00:04Like I'm just waiting for him to flip over the page and do the little mermaid maze on the back.
00:08Trevor Noah declared it Comey Week on Tuesday's The Daily Show,
00:12referring to James Comey's much-anticipated testimony Thursday, where he will speak about
00:17the investigation into possible ties between President Donald Trump's campaign and Russia.
00:21But as Noah pointed out, the only group not celebrating Comey Week is the Trump administration,
00:26as the president tries to push Infrastructure Week.
00:29The host moved on to mock Trump's small portable desk and recent air traffic control ceremony,
00:35where he signed a document that appeared to be a bill but was actually just a memo to Congress.
00:40He just wrote a to-do list, then signed it, like it was all done. He ran it as a TV president.
00:45Noah called this a recurring theme of Trump's presidency, saying,
00:48He loves the performance of doing things, but a lot of the time nothing's actually being done.
00:54Essentially, Donald Trump wants to be president, but he doesn't want to do president.
00:59The Daily Show host detailed how many of Trump's deals aren't actually deals at all,
01:03using a graphic to describe it as no content for old man.
01:07Noah went on to say,
01:08I don't know about you, but I think it's time we take action and crack down on these phony claims.
01:13He then brought out his own tiny desk and shouted,
01:16No more lies! The host signed a piece of paper with a massively large pencil and said,
01:21It's done. No more lies.
