You're listening to Comedy Central. From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central, it's America's only source for news. This is The Daily Show with your host, Desi Lydon. Thank you.

I'm Desi Lydic. We've got so much to talk about tonight. Kamala Harris faces a McFlurry of questions. Donald Trump declares war on furniture. And Ray with another installment of Indecision 2024. We are just 40 days away from the election, which means it's time to start working on that insurrection body.

Harris and Donald Trump gave campaign speeches on the economy today. Kamala laid out her priorities for the middle class, while Donald Trump promised to bring back North Carolina's manufacturing jobs. And he wasn't dramatic about it at all. All of your furniture makers are going to come back and come back bigger and stronger and better than ever before. They're mostly gone. They're all coming back. This is why...

People in countries want to kill me. That's why people want to kill Trump? Does he think Ikea issued a fatwa on him? Fatwa is my favorite Ikea bookshop. Now in her speech, Kamala was emphasizing her middle class roots, while in his speech, Trump was saying, nuh-uh. She never worked at McDonald's. It was a fake story.

It was a fake story. She said she worked at McDonald's and she didn't. It was a lie. She never worked at McDonald's over the hot French fries. I think I'm going to a McDonald's in two weeks, actually. Did Trump just talk himself into getting hungry? She never worked over the piping hot fries. So crispy and salty. Each bite a perfect... We should go to McDonald's. Let's go to McDonald's.

So Trump's new conspiracy theory is that Kamala Harris never worked at McDonald's when she was young, which to him is basically stolen valor. How dare you disrespect our men and women in uniform? Those people served with honor and with extra ketchup packets, if you ask. And yes, it is ridiculous that Trump is asking to see Kamala's burger certificate.

the kind of thing you would lie about. It's not like sex with a porn star while your wife is pregnant. But look, I get why he's suspicious. If she had ever worked at any McDonald's between the years 1960 and last week, he probably would have seen her.

whole thing is just a ploy for him to get free food. You worked at McDonald's, prove it. Make me seven Big Macs. But look, here's the thing. Trump and Kamala weren't supposed to be doing this stuff today. Originally, there was another debate scheduled for tonight. And The Daily Show would be broadcasting live, but there was no debate, and we are not live. In fact, if you're watching this right now, I'm already at home in bed, watching videos about how bad it is to look at your phone in bed.

And now it's looking more and more likely that the first Trump-Harris debate was also the last. Because while Kamala keeps saying she's down for a rematch, Trump wants no part of it. The problem with another debate is that it's just too late. Voting has already started. It's too late to do another. I'd love to in many ways, but it's too late. The voting is cast.

I'm sorry. It's too late. I'd love to have my ass handed to me for another two hours, but there's just no time. There's no time. There's no time. I mean, I can't blame the guy. People don't typically volunteer for a second beatdown. Drake's not going to Kendrick like, hey, we should beef again. Send me some dates.

Get it on the calendar. But then again, there's only 40 days until the election. There is no time to lose, which is why Trump is working overtime to make his final sales pitch. And it's not the one you think.

Hello, everyone. I have something incredible to share today. We are announcing the launch of Trump coins, a true symbol of American greatness. Each coin comes with a certificate of authenticity with my signature to ensure you have purchased a real Trump coin. I've seen a lot of coins out there using my very beautiful face. Very beautiful guy. I'm only kidding.

I'm only kidding. Apparently, there are some lies even Trump can't stand by. But Trump is right. There are a lot of different Trump coins floating around out there, and you don't want to be scammed by some grifter's fake coin. You want to be scammed by Donald Trump's fake coin. And that's why Trump's coin comes with the Certificate of Authenticity, which authentically certifies that you should not be in charge of your family's finances.

Now, if he was just peddling this coin, I would understand what with all the legal bills he has to pay for the fraud and the sexual assault and all the Big Macs. But this is just the latest in a long line of junk he's been hawking all campaign season.

By popular demand, I'm doing a new series of Trump digital trading cards. These cards show me dancing and even beholding some bitcoins. The launch of World Liberty Financial. We're embracing the future with crypto. I'm proud to endorse and encourage you to get this Bible. Hello to my fellow patriots. We have some very big news. My new book, Save America, published by Winning Team Publishing. We're going to remember SneakerCon. That's the real deal.

Each physical trading card has an authentic piece of my suit that I wore for the presidential debate. So they just came out with this T-shirt, which is really pretty spectacular. And it's selling like hotcakes. Yeah, so Trump is selling a lot of stuff. And keep in mind, this is all in the middle of a campaign season. Is it me or does it seem like maybe his true passion is this?

Like, healthcare, he only has a concept of a plan. Bible-hawking, he has a whole warehouse ready to go. In fact, Donald, why don't you just do this and, you know, forget about the whole presidency thing? You can sell a commemorative coin from when you retired from politics. I'd buy that. Oh, sorry, what was that? Oh, Trump just came out with a new product. Well, let's see what it is.

Hello, it's your favorite president, Donald J. Trump. Over the years, you've bought my coins, my shoes, pieces of my suit, and it made me wonder, is there anything you won't buy? Introducing Trump's bug. I'm the first president in American history to drain his own swamp into tiny little bottles, very tiny, and pass them on to you, the American people.

Look at that, that's my snake sauce. Isn't that fantastic? Each vial is personally hand-cranked by yours truly, the greatest American president. They say my patriotic splooge is better than Lincoln's, I don't know. Le creme de la creme, I guess you could say. And now that creme can be yours.

You can use Trump's spunk for anything. A charm on a friendship bracelet, an incredible glaze for your Easter ham, or to propose to that special someone. You can add water and make your own Eric. I wouldn't recommend it, but you can. Every vial of Trump's spunk is guaranteed to be 90% of my man butter. I don't know where the rest came from.

And for a limited time only, each vial of my tadpole yogurt is only $29.99. Act now and get a limited edition capsule of the J6 juice, which was created while I was watching the Capitol riots. So wonderful. Trump spunk. It's worth a shot. Limit two per customer. I'm not a machine. That was gross.

singer-songwriter whose debut album earned her a record-breaking six Brit Awards. Her new live concert album is called Live at Montreux Jazz Festival. Please welcome Ray!

Thank you so much for having me I did a couple star jobs just to get in the vibe general means that I'm out of breath a couple a couple start jump star John so you don't jumping jacks in America right so I am now calling them star jumps and the rest of my life that's so much better than jumping jack.

It's just the way it is congratulations on all of your success you just swept the Brit Awards with a record 6 awards including best album. What does that mean to you honestly, I think the night just got more and more blurry and more and more motion was the night went on a flat. The last one.

That was just the crying, sobbing. It was all blurry, but I've watched back, yeah. And I got to bring my grandma on stage, which was the most beautiful moment. Yeah. Yeah, she's everything to me. She's sweet. Yeah.

She is yeah, that's incredible. The you know Americans are completely obsessed with British artists Charlie XCX yes, you oh Harry Styles. Yeah, tell yeah, are you all impressed with Americans at all.

star jacks. You you can't you mention your grandma you come from a very musical family, your sister is a singer songwriter your grandfather was a songwriter you yes up singing in the church choir yet how how has all of that influenced you as a musician.

I don't know. I think the thing with music is when it gets you, it really gets you. Do you know what I mean? And I was so young when I just decided like this was plan A. There was no plan B. I'm going to be a musician or die trying. So my entire life has just been that kind of...

you know, pursuit of music and I started as a songwriter. It's kind of how I got my foot in the door. You know, and it's been, yeah, it's been, it's not the simplest journey behind the scenes, you know what I mean? I know you hear what, yeah. - Sure not. - But we made it, so far so good. Got big dreams, big plans, I'm headed there. So far so good. - Is that what you did? You started out as a songwriter. You wrote songs for Beyonce, for John Legend, for Kylie Minogue. How was it, last year you put out, independently, your solo album. - Yeah.

How how did that feel to do that and what was the music writing process like for you writing for yourself versus another artist. I should know it was such a liberating thing and you know I've been in a record label for quite a while and it was a tricky time for me albums everything you know I I do think everything's becoming a lot shorter now all over intent attention spans including myself is just getting shorter and shorter but for me

albums are just essential and important and will never die and I really believe in the album so getting to make my own one was a really beautiful experience and then on top of that getting to be recognized and listened to by that it's just opened so many doors for me it's just blown my mind a lot of people thought that I would never have success as an artist I mean so it's just also so vindicating to be able to prove to myself that they were just all chatting rubbish

- Oh, thanks. - One of the things that I appreciate so much about your music and that I think sets you apart from so many other artists is the way that you juxtapose these big sort of joyful, big band, jazzy music along with lyrics that are really raw and vulnerable and about very serious issues. You talk about body dysmorphia, you talk about mental health, sexual assault.

How do you even begin building music around those lyrics? Well, you know, I do think music is medicine. I always say that. I think even sitting here and talking to you about these sort of heavier subjects, I get nervous. I don't really know how to address it or what to say. And I think music is a safe space to kind of be raw and honest. And for me, that's my safe place. It's my therapy.

Yeah, you know, I think there's a lot of us have really broken and a lot of us are hurting and a lot of us are dealing with things we don't know exactly how to speak about or express, even with the people that we love. And I think music is a safe space to do that, to find healing or talk about it or just...

I don't know, process it. So that was really important to me as an independent artist. I just wanted to be honest about those things you're quiet about, you know? You've talked a lot about imposter syndrome. Yeah. Experiencing that, is that something that you still think about, even with this amount of success that you've reached? Oh, yeah, I just feel...

Yeah, do you know what? I'm just more of a like, you know, just I'm quite chatty and just like hanging out, do you know what I mean? And then, you know, you get put in these kind of fancy environments like the Met Gala, for instance. I was just like, what am I doing here? You know, so I guess you do kind of feel like that. And I don't necessarily feel like that's a bad thing. I think the kind of music I want to continue to create and the person I always want to be is someone who's just like, do you know what I mean?

normal, I don't know. And I'm not good at being fancy. Either way, I suck at being fancy, even though this dress is very fancy. But I mean, you got it. It's all a facade. You have a...

Your song Genesis yeah, and within that you you explore all of these different topics you talk a lot about the dangers of social media mental health anxiety. Yeah, you you explore all these weighty topics. What what was so important to you about covering all of those themes in this one song. Well, I don't know like I was kind of saying before I feel like it's easy to kind of brush over and gloss over the truth.

And for us to all be, you know, we're all kind of stuck in these algorithms and it's all like self-love, self-love and everything's great and everything's fine. And so, ooh, ooh, ooh. And it's just not the reality at all. I spend like five minutes on social media and my head starts to spin out. I've actually had to come off it completely. I made them change my passwords. I can't even log in. So someone hands me my phone and is like, you've got four minutes. And I'm like, great. And I need that. Do you know what I mean? Because it's really bad for me and I can't be the only one who feels that way. Oh, that's brilliant. So yeah, I wanted to make a song

It's a seven-minute long song. I'm sorry, I'm only doing the really sad parts, actually, on here. That works for us. We're very sad people in this room. So it's going to be quite depressing. You know, it starts sad, it gets quite angry, and then it goes light. And I don't know, it's just art, music, and it's honest. It was tough to write. It's very raw, but I'm proud of it, you know, and that's what matters most, I think, yeah. Thank you.

You have a lot to be proud of, so you should be very proud of yourself. And we are proud to have you here at this show. So thank you so much for coming on. Live at Montreux Jazz Festival is available now.

actually said her policy is a connection. Joining us now, Florida Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna. Congresswoman, great to see you tonight.
