Stewart began by saying that in most of the clips of the state visit, it looks like Trump spent most of the time just pointing at things while President Xi tried his best to pretend he was impressed.

Trump then addressed the media, saying that they had a great meeting. He ended his sentence by saying President Xi has:"interest in granite"Donald Trump then kept talking about Xi's alleged interest in granite for a few more seconds. Right after the video ended, Stewart, referring to Xi's alleged interest in granite, asked his audience sarcastically:"Does he?"Stewart pointed out that when Trump began talking about granite, Xi's face looked like he would rather be anywhere in the world than there at that moment. In the video, Xi didn't say anything to support Donald Trump's statements and appeared to be smiling awkwardly. It didn't look like Xi was actually as interested in granite as Trump claimed he was, and was just smiling along to be polite.Moreover, Stewart pointed out that it is strange to say that Xi is interested in granite because it is an extremely random thing to say. Stewart also explained that China is an extremely developed country that has a fully autonomous magnetic levitation train. Thus, it is unlikely that President Xi would be interested in or talk about something as simple as granite with President Donald Trump on a state visit.Stewart also sarcastically stated that Trump probably made the granite comment to hide whatever topic of national importance he had discussed in the meeting. Moreover, The Daily Show host jokingly said that perhaps all President Trump wanted to do during the state visit was to rent out the State Ballroom at the White House that is replacing the East Wing, to President Xi. He said:"Maybe Trump's just trying to sell Xi Jinping on renting out the ballroom for his next big function. I don't know."It is unknown why Trump randomly talked about Xi's alleged interest in granite or what it means. The Daily Show host Jon Stewart has mocked the statements in a humorous way, but we cannot assume what exactly the president's intention or meaning was. While a new ballroom was built, there have been no official announcements about renting it out to any other country or president.For more articles like this, follow Soapcentral.
