Trevor Noah is pretty sure the only thing that terrifies President Trump "more than going bald is the Mueller investigation," but there's really no reason for him to be scared.
The New York Times on Monday published a list of the questions Special Counsel Robert Mueller wants to ask Trump as part of his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election and possible obstruction of justice. If Trump does sit down for an interview, Noah said on Tuesday's Daily Show, his response will be the same. "'They said I could never get to 270 Electoral College votes, I got 306, so many votes,'" Noah said, doing his best Trump impression. "Mueller will be like, 'My question was, please state your name for the record.'"
