(cheers and applause) ♪ >> jon: thank you! my name is jon stewart. my guest tonight, a gentleman by the name of tom cruise will be joining us, because some people named cruise have the balls to come do this show. (cheers and applause)

senator oh, i've got to stay in washington and do business? sounds like president obama jetting around on that sweet government plane of his. that's right, pal. you should be fying commercial like the rest like watching paul blart 2 on a tiny scream waiting for chicken chunks and you never get them because a drunk guy took a dump on the cart! (laughter) it's good the president is making shoes of air force one while he has it. >> president obama became the first sitting president of the united states to visit ethiopia. he traveled from his father's homeland kenya. >> jon: father's homeland! ha ha! hmm! his father's homeland, the place where his phat was born! >> ill suspect some of my critics back home are suggesting i'm back here to look for my

birth certificate. (laughter) >> jon: well that stole a lot of the joy out of my joke. you host the daily show obama and i'll just pack up and move to some farm in new jersey -- what's that? oh i'm i am doing that? next week? wow! well, good thing you're here, otherwise i would have just kept coming to work. incidentally, mr. president you wish your critics were still spouting that birth announcement. they've moved on to your iran deal makes you hitler. maybe you're all down like, i was born in kenya? (laughter) president obama returns tomorrow

from a five-day visit to kenya and ethiopia which began with the traditional presidential snubbing of the relatives. >> the trip to africa was perfect for president obama whose father was born in kenya but due to security concerns he won't be able to visit the vidges. >> i will not feel bad. he has to come to work, so let him work. i can't feel bad. he has to come for his duty. but some day he will surely come. he's a son here and i cannot be angered by him not coming to see me. >> jon: wow. i had no idea obama's african grandmother was jewish. (laughter) that was a little pass ifer aggressive from the kenyon grandmother. no, i get it! he's a president he has important people to see. doesn't bother me at all. if i really wanted to see him he can come to my funeral. mr. big shot american president!

ahhh! thethere were sights forty gettable and unforgettable. >> he went to visit lucy probably one to have the most famous fossil in the world more than 3 million years old. >> the president toured a food processing facility where he met a farm who are increased output of corn on her farm by three times. (laughter) >> jon: look at the president's face when he's looking at the common ancestor of all mankind. and look at his corn face. that is a guy that's like, you know we have corn, right? we have loads of corn. let's focus on the non-corn. >> every single person here

comes from her. even donald trump. >> jon: wow! it's one thing for the president to preempt my jokes but i'm not going to let an ethiopian anthropologist jump in on the trump action! it's fascinating across the world's cultures, the two things we share seem to be music and trump jokes. i quibble with the anthropologist because while most descendents are from lucy, donald trump descended from an ancient form known as tri-hairatops. (laughter) but obviously obama's trip was not all bones and corn. by the way, del monte's least

popular product. also, have you had their bones and corn? i can't recommend it less. there were also serious issues for the president to address. >> he's not shying away from the issue of human rights. obama going head to head essentially with president kenyatta on gay rights issues. >> the idea is they are going to be treated differently or abused because of who they love is wrong. >> jon: i mean, what kind of backward, intolerant country would treat people differently just because they're gay? that is so one month ago! (laughter) now, not all the president's critiques were phrased quite as eloquently. >> the president also said kenya and other african nations still cling to traditions that marginalize women with and discourage them from working. >> that's stupid! (laughter)

>> jon: you're idiots! (knocking) who'swho's there? you don't know. you're stupid. (laughter) but that's our president, because that's america. we are a beacon of equality and freedom and we spread that message no matter where we are no matter how uncomfortable it may make our less progressive hosts. >> president obama arrived in saudi arabia today. >> i thought it was very important to come to the place where islam began and to see the council. >> they did not discuss saudi human rights abuses. >> jon: let that be a lesson. you want to (bleep) people you need to move us up first. we'll be right back.
