The Daily Show has spent a lot of time on Donald Trump recently, but on Thursday they took a brief pause to share some thoughts on X (formerly Twitter) suing advertisers.
The site, which host Michael Kosta describes as “Nazis peddling cryptocurrency to porn bots,” has been shedding advertisers in a major way since Elon Musk took charge, leading to the company making the (possibly ill-advised) decision to file a recent lawsuit. As part of this X CEO Linda Yaccarino shared a video on the platform, explaining their reasons for doing so.
In the clip above, The Daily Show‘s Desi Lydic dons a wig and puts on her best Yaccarino impression, complete with lots of unnecessary hand gestures and a significantly blunter script.
