Donald Trump continued his election campaign with yet another maligned rally on Sunday at Madison Square Garden in New York. This time, in a speech described as using "violent and vulgar rhetoric", the former president spoke once again about his "mass deportation" plans, which he said he'll enact on "day one" if he wins the election.

"Day one? Have a snack, meet the staff," says Jon Stewart in the Daily Show clip above. "Day one is typically we just read the syllabus, generally there's no homework."

Stewart goes on to play a series of clips that show just how dangerous Trump's plan is, from him constantly giving varying illegal immigration numbers at rallies to the many examples of him misidentifying people (including his own wife).

"I'm confident that on day one, when Trump does his mass deportation of anywhere from two to a hundred million people, it won't be you. It'll be them. Because of how precise Trump is," says Stewart.

"Right now you think you're safe, because the group Trump's talking about is not you. As if 'Are you sure this isn't my wife?' Donald Trump can tell the difference, or even cares."
