In the episode "Out of Office 2017" of The Daily Show with Trevor Noah (season 2017, episode 165), Trevor focuses on President Trump and his summer vacation plans, or lack thereof. Trevor begins the show by pointing out that Trump has spent 13 out of his first 28 weeks in office at his own properties, including 21 days at his golf club in New Jersey. Trevor humorously questions whether this qualifies as a summer vacation or just an excuse to play golf.
Trevor then turns his attention to the controversy around Trump's recent ban on transgender people serving in the military. He highlights the hypocrisy of this decision, given that Trump himself received a medical deferment from the Vietnam War due to a supposed "bone spurs" condition. Trevor interviews trans veteran Brooke Guinan, who shares her experience in the military and her thoughts on Trump's decision.
Later in the episode, Trevor examines the various scandals surrounding the Trump administration, including the ongoing Russia investigation and the recent resignation of White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus. He interviews political strategist Paul Begala, who offers his perspective on the current state of the Trump presidency.
As always, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah offers a blend of humor and insightful commentary on the day's top news stories. "Out of Office 2017" is a must-watch episode for anyone looking to stay informed and entertained.
