The Daily Show host Jon Stewart was shocked on Monday by reports that President Donald Trump offered to sell US arms to Chinese President Xi Jinping during his visit to Washington, DC, last week.

The supposed offer, which was recounted by US Ambassador to China David Perdue, came amid reports that China was supplying Iran with weapons, intelligence and oil deals.

Stewart then rolled a clip of reporters asking Trump about the supposed offer.
