Daily Show correspondent Michael Kosta said Donald Trump was clearly bored as shit as he watched this weeks debate between running mate JD Vance and his Democratic counterpart, Tim Walz .
In the middle of the event, the former president fired off a random tweet about disgraced baseball legend Pete Rose , who had died the previous day.
Trump pushed for Rose who was banned from baseball for betting on the sport to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Do it now, before his funeral! Trump wrote.
Do it before the funeral? a bewildered Kosta asked. You dont have to bring the body to the Hall of Fame to swear him in.
Kosta said the timing of the message was awkward for the Ohio senator.
It mustve been rough for JD Vance, he said. Think about it: Its like hitting a home run at your Little League game, looking to the stands to see your dads proud, smiling face, and realizing hes at home tweeting about the death of Pete Rose.
