Olivia Munn roasts Donald Trump’s tariffs on The Daily Show

Olivia Munn made a surprise appearance on The Daily Show on April 9, 2025, where she criticized former President Donald Trump’s handling of international tariffs.

Responding to Trump’s claim that foreign leaders were “kissing [his] a–” to avoid tariffs, Munn said, “This is all to make up for Donald Trump’s enormous deficit of attention and love.” She mocked the president’s remarks made at a National Republican Congressional Committee dinner, where he described other countries pleading for trade deals.

During her appearance, Munn joked, “See, he’s just a boy, standing in front of the world, asking to have his a– kissed.” She added, “And once the world fills the aching hole in his heart, the tariffs will end.” These remarks followed Trump’s sudden 90-day pause on tariffs for most countries. The move, excluding China, came just a day after his aggressive trade comments.

Desi Lydic, host of The Daily Show, expressed disbelief at Trump’s trade approach. She questioned the idea that global attention could resolve his decisions. When Lydic said, “There’s not enough attention in the world to make him feel like a human again,” Munn replied, “Exactly, b—-.” This exchange emphasized the satirical tone of the segment.

Munn also mocked the logic behind Trump’s tariff reversals. She said sarcastically, “Trump knows exactly what he’s doing. He put tariffs that destroyed the global economy, so then he took them off, and now it’s only mostly destroyed.” Munn continued, “Then we hit them even harder. 400% tariffs. We bomb their factories. We catch those penguins on that island and we eat them.”

She ended her segment reiterating, “Desi, baby girl, it’s not the trade deficit. This is all to make up for Donald Trump’s enormous deficit of attention and love.”
