 Comedy CentralThat Donald Trump has a tendency toward pettiness is hardly surprising to those who have been paying attention to the former president's antics in recent years. (See Exhibits A, B, C, D, and E.) But a late-night outburst on Wednesday attacking Bill Barr has The Daily Show correspondent and this week's co-host Jordan Klepper declaring the former president the official "King of Pettiness."
Though Trump spent most of Thursday in a New York City courtroom (again) for his hush money trial, Klepper's co-host Ronny Chieng said that it wasn't all bad news for the former president. "After months of calling him unfit for office, Trump's former attorney general Bill Barr said he's voting for him anyway," Chieng shared. "And Trump responded with as much grace as you'd expect."
Just after 11 p.m. on Wednesday, Trump

 Yuki Iwamura/GettyDonald Trump on Wednesday described a deadly 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville as a "peanut" compared with the current wave of pro-Palestine demonstrations unfolding on college campuses across America.
In a post on his Truth Social platform, the Republican noted that his successor, Joe Biden, had cited the Unite the Right rally in Virginia as among his motives for running for president. One woman was killed and almost 40 other people were hurt when a neo-Nazi rammed his car into a crowd of counter-protesters at the rally—an event that Trump claimed at the time had been attended by "very fine people on both sides."
"Crooked Joe Biden would say, constantly, that he ran because of Charlottesville," Trump wrote in his post Wednesday. "Well, if that's the case, he's done a really terrible job because Charlottesville is like a ‘peanut' compared to the riots and anti-Israel protests that are happening all over our Country, RIGHT NOW."

 Jim Watson/AFP via Getty ImagesDonald Trump's claim that the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017 was less hateful than pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses lately was "repugnant and divisive," the White House shot back Thursday night.
After proceedings in his criminal trial in New York concluded for the day, Trump said the torch-lit rally on the campus of the University of Virginia—in which participants chanted "Jews will not replace us" and a Neo-Nazi murdered a counter-protester with his car and injured thirty others—was "a little peanut" compared to the largely peaceful encampments springing up on college campuses in recent weeks.
"It was nothing compared, and the hate wasn't the kind of hate you have here. This is tremendous hate," Trump claimed.
