Trevor Noah explains how Trump's anti-immigration creep is like a communicable disease, 'Donaldrrhea'

President Trump has always had it out for immigrants, "and who can blame him?" Trevor Noah joked on Wednesday's Daily Show. "They're responsible for two of his worst marriages." But he used to only target illegal immigrants. Not any more, thanks to a new proposal from White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller. Miller "is an evil genius," Noah said. "Because you see what he's done, right? They're saying the U.S. won't allow legal immigrants to stay in the U.S. if they've ever used what they call 'public assistance.' And what's interesting is that that description ranges from food stamps all the way through to ObamaCare — which, by the way, you had to get by law. So thanks, Obama. Some of us don't want to go back to Kenya."

"Under this new policy, they can kick you out for breaking the law, or they could kick you out for following the law," Noah said, recapping how Trump has shifted his policy from going after "bad hombres" to good people who enter the U.S. illegally to, now, immigrants who are here legally. Trump also wants to scrap the 14th amendment, so people born in the U.S. don't automatically get citizenship, he noted. "I know a lot of people always think that Trump's immigration 'policy' won't affect them. But here's the way you've got to think of it: Trump's immigration policies are a lot like an STD. It can get to anybody, no matter who you are or where you come from. And the more people it spreads to, the more likely it is that you'll be the next one to get Donaldrrhea."

On Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel pointed out that, if you believe his words, "Donald Trump loves every kind of people," and he had the clips to prove it. Watch below. Peter Weber
