The Daily Show guest host Kal Penn slammed Donald Trump for pushing the perfect gift for the dad you stopped talking to as he took aim at the former presidents latest collection of NFTs .

The actor and former Obama administration staffer, on Wednesday, flipped to a clip of a CNN report on Trumps recently announced mug shot edition of digital trading cards .

Supporters who buy at least 47 of the cards receive a card featuring a piece of the suit that the former president wore during his Fulton County Jail mug shot this year.

Look, if youre thinking, This isnt funny. Hes tricking people out of their hard-earned money for pieces of fabric from Indicted Mens Wearhouse, lets be honest. Its not like this money was going to otherwise end up in a Roth IRA, Penn said, It was either an NFT of Trump or a second pet snake.

Penn went on to add that the popularity of the Trump NFTs, which have sold out following past releases , should prompt President Joe Biden use the former presidents latest announcement as a campaign ad.

Because if you can afford to blow five grand on a piece of a suit with mustard stains, the economy must be doing pretty good, he said.

The guest host, who declared that the cards are actually pretty cool, later recommended a few additions to the latest NFT collection drop.

But why dont any of these cards show off his amazing policy accomplishments? Like, wheres a card showing Trump tackling a doctor whos about to perform an abortion? asked Penn.

Wheres the one of him heroically catapulting a refugee child far away from his family? Oh, was that too much for you?
