Jon Stewart was not joking around on Wednesday when he called Donald Trump’s presidential announcement “a gift from heaven.”

“I’m just really happy,” the host of “The Daily Show” said. “Come on, let’s dance, Clownstick.”

From Trump’s escalator entrance to his ramblings about his wealth to his calling Mexican immigrants “rapists,” Stewart savored every moment.

“This speech was so fucked up, that in the middle of it, all the liquid in his body tried to escape from the corner of his mouth,” the host said.

Eventually, Stewart concluded that the “batshit billionaire” Trump was placing him in “some kind of comedy hospice” for his last six weeks hosting the show.
