I hope @Trevornoah and @TheDailyShow are listening. The way Trevor portrayed India during that segment was disrespectful. https://t.co/gquuGPdoXu

While your imitation of an Indian soldier accent is distasteful, saying that the soldiers dance on the border is outrageous. You don’t have to belong to India or Pak to realize the adversity of this situation, you just need to have basic empathy

How tremendously disappointing, @Trevornoah. War is NOT a form of entertainment. You spend 80% of your time criticizing Trump and the violence he could be stirring, but the possibility of India and Pakistan engaging in actual war is a filmy song and dance to you? https://t.co/dlR0gdvHQU

Nevertheless, the host of The Daily Show has been used to the audience’s criticism as he always has controversy statement. Previously, he made fun of Oscars nominee “Black Panther” and supposed that Wakanda is a real country.

After saying that he grew up in Wakanda and T’Challa often flies over his village, the host added: “abelungu abazi uba ndiyaxoka’, means “In times like these, we are stronger when we fight together than when we try to fight apart.” But his dialogue actually means “White people don’t know I’m lying”.
