“Daily Show” host Jon Stewart on Monday tore into President Donald Trump for inserting himself into everything, even a moment that should have been pure apolitical joy, like when Spain won the World Cup on Sunday.
“They celebrated receiving the World Cup trophy with a trophy hoist, which is, traditionally, it’s a moment that is shared really only by the players,” Stewart said as he rolled footage of the team.

Except Trump, who had helped present the trophy, didn’t leave the stage right away. Instead, he remained alongside the players.
“What the **** are you doing on the stage? It’s for the players!” Stewart yelled. “*******! Why must everything be tainted by the overinflated ego of Cankles Muldoon? Why? Why?”

After the game, Trump bragged about the U.S. performance as one of the hosts of the event.

“And it’s probably about five times, actually, they’re telling me today,” he said.
