"Seth Meyers on Trump: The most unpopular president of all time' Stewart then rolled a clip of Trump attempting that move, telling reporters: All I want is I want for people to recognize a great job that I've done on pricing, on affordability. What planet do you live on? Stewart responded. Great job on affordability? My Taco Bell order is now $72! This dude is flailing, he later added."
