Daily Show’s Josh Johnson Reacts to King Charles Dropping Jokes in Congress

1 Min Read

During his visit to the U.S., King Charles not only gifted Donald Trump a golden bell but also delivered a couple of humorous speeches.

In the clip above, Daily Show host Josh Johnson presents footage of the king amusing Congress with a joke about the “shared history” between the U.S. and the UK.

“Wow, he really commands the stage— I’m sorry, he really colonises the stage,” remarks Johnson. “As a comedian, it’s annoying because he’s actually doing well.”

Johnson continues with footage of Charles receiving applause after discussing “the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances.”

“Ooh, he got us too good!” remarks Johnson. “It’s funny, you see, because our checks and balances are basically disappearing as our democracy’s foundations slowly erode! You crazy Charles, you crazy.”
