Donald Trump is picking fights with everyone from Canada to Denmark, and Jon Stewart isn't impressed.

"What is happening? The EU, Canada — do we have any friends?" asks the Daily Show host in the monologue above. "Canada? We're picking a fight with our most reliable and pleasant friend, the labradoodle of allies?

Stewart goes on to mock the way the U.S. president is selecting his targets.

"Denmark, Panama, Canada. We're America. We used to fight the Nazis. Now we're scouring the globe for easy marks. What are we, the Jake Paul of nations?" asks Stewart, before going into Trump impression mode. "I know China's out there, but Panama's a legitimate fight! In fact I'm gonna call everyone out in FIFA's Concacaf division! Ohhh, Trinidad and Tobago, you gotta gang up, huh?"
