“I heard Donald Trump broke up with you,” Stewart began, acknowledging the recent ban on certain outlets attending press secretary Sean Spicer’s briefings. “Well, good riddance, I say! Kick. Him. To. The. Curb!”
Stewart then urged media organizations to “get [their] groove back” — in other words, stop believing that Trump will suddenly act more presidential during his time as commander-in-chief: “Seventy-year-old men don’t get less cranky or racist as time goes by.”

The former late-night host ended his plea with this zinger: “Instead of worrying about whether Trump is un-American or if he thinks you’re the enemy… do something for yourself. Take up a hobby. I recommend journalism.”
