Stewart told the tech billionaire to drop the pretense

The Daily Show has seen the likes of Jimmy Carter, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden all get grilled, but while current President of the United States Donald Trump is yet to sit in the chair opposite Jon Stewart, his name is never far from the lips of the late-night talk show.

Even though Elon Musk is another who has avoided Stewart’s glare, his position as a “special government employee” and the head of the Department of Government Efficiency makes him a popular request.

Even though Musk is happy to chew the fat about Fort Knox conspiracy theories with Joe Rogan, he seems a little more reluctant to appear on The Daily Show.

This whole saga started when Stewart tore into the Department of Government Efficiency and its attempts to slash $2 trillion from government spending. The Daily Show host ranted about the DOGE and suggested that we should take profits from Big Pharma, then went on to smash a coffee cup and unexpectedly cut his hand.

In the aftermath of Stewart taking down DOGE, Musk responded to one person’s request for him to go on the show and tell his side of the story.

The world’s richest man has just one condition, adding: “I will do it if the show airs unedited.”
