After a short break, Jon Stewart returned to Daily show And he called out Shark tank Kevin O’Leary.
A Comedy Central host bashed a Canadian businessman after he called Donald Trump’s civil fraud case in New York a victimless crime.
Stewart mocked O’Leary after he said the case against Trump did not go down well within the investment community as anyone could now be targeted.
“I’m surprised to hear this from Kevin O’Leary, a man who is so despicable that other people are in Shark tank “I think he’s an a**hole,” Stewart joked.
Stewart proceeded to criticize O’Leary’s hypocrisy and cold demeanor regarding Trump’s overvaluation of his assets Shark tank The star gets upset when investment seekers overestimate the value of their companies. Clips of O’Leary on the ABC show played the venture capitalist down on entrepreneurs over allegations they overestimated the value of their company.
“Oh no, you didn’t,” Stewart quipped. “Canadians are so vulgar.”
He continued, “How could he not be so angry about the overestimation of value in the real world? Because they are not victimless crimes.”
“Tax avoidance hurts us all,” Stewart explains, noting that “Donald Trump’s shenanigans cost New York City… money that New York City could have used to build more Walgreens. Some blocks only have two of them.”
“Leave it to Kevin O’Leary to say the quiet part out loud,” Stewart added.
During an interview on CNN, O’Leary was told that the civil fraud in New York included Trump’s second-degree falsification of business records, issuing false financial statements, insurance fraud, and conspiracy.
“Everything I just mentioned is being done by every real estate developer everywhere on Earth and in every city. This has never been prosecuted,” O’Leary said.
“There’s a theory and a law that if enough people commit a crime, it automatically becomes legal,” Stewart joked. “You’re aware.” Cleansing“Aren’t you?”
The show host described O’Leary’s response as “speaking of arrogance,” noting that most Americans couldn’t afford any consequences even if everyone did, such as requiring more dependents on their tax returns. If a private citizen did something like this, they could face financial consequences and criminal charges.
“But don’t tell the investment community that because in their minds, in their pursuit of profit, there’s no rule that can’t be bent, there’s no principle that can’t be undermined as long as you and your damned friends are making money,” Stewart said enthusiastically. “Clearly an unethical practice.” The only thing in the capitalist system is to use this money for people who might need it.”
“Stealing is only justified when you already have a lot,” he joked.
