The iconic kids' entertainment character's social media also declared in a since-deleted post that Donald Trump is in the Epstein Files.

Jon Stewart hosted Elmo on tonight’s show, which was initially supposed to be about the tariffs. Remember those? Trump added a 17% tax to Mexican tomatoes today. But instead, Stewart did an extended riff about Elmo getting radicalized by the manosphere because he is a victim of the Male Loneliness Epidemic. The truth does, in fact, hurt.

Stewart warned Trump that his "classic" barrage of distractions will not be “enough” to quell MAGA’s “revolt” over the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case.

While talking with Duncan and "Andor" showrunner Tony Gilroy on Thursday's episode of "The Weekly Show" podcast, Stewart built up to his big question of how close the United States really was to a second revolution with his guests.
