Comedy Central’s Ronny Chieng took some time on Thursday’s episode of The Daily Show to examine a different aspect of the war with Iran: the internet meme battle. According to Chieng, Iran’s Lego propaganda video is much better than the memes the White House has been putting out.
After reacting to a local news reporter claiming Iran has been mocking President Trump in its videos, Chieng teed up a clip by sarcastically taunting Iran, “Mocking President Trump? No one's ever thought of that! Big deal. Look, no offense, Iran, but you're not exactly known as a cultural powerhouse, okay, so good luck impressing Americans with your little videos.”
In the video, a frantic and confused Lego Trump is shown running around in dismay that his attempt to distract from the Epstein files has failed while a Lego rocket with “Loser” printed on its side targets U.S. troops and a rapper sings, “The secrets are leaking, the pressure is rising, we locked on the target, and now you are hiding, L-O-S-E-R! Yeah, we spelling out your name! Sent them to the slaughter! You the only one to blame!”
