Donald Trump has been dogged by a growing number of questions about his friendship with convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein of late, but surely a golfing trip to Scotland will provide him a brief reprieve from all that? Nope!

During Monday night's Daily Show, Jon Stewart gleefully recaps how the president's visit was still plagued with questions about the scandal, from people yelling Epstein's name at him while he was playing golf to Scottish journalists refusing to ignore the main story of the day in press conferences.

"He's all like, 'How did you even hear about it?'" says Stewart, after playing a clip of Trump's exasperated response to a question about Epstein. "'I thought you guys just got Baywatch like three months ago? Doesn't anybody here have a question about this trade deal sinking both of our economies with tariffs? How high do I have to make the tariffs before you guys shut the f*** up about Epstein?!'"

Keep an eye out for an entertaining cameo from Shrinking star Jessica Williams at the end, too.
