China has deployed an unlikely voice in its trade war with the U.S.: Trevor Noah of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show.

A brief clip from the comedian’s “If You Don’t Know, Now You Know” segment on Chinese equipment maker Huawei’s dominance in next-generation 5G mobile technology ran on state broadcaster CCTV’s national lunchtime news on Monday.

It was part of a barrage of stories and commentaries attacking the U.S. stance in the standoff between the world’s two largest economies.

Washington says Huawei, the leading supplier of telecom gear and No. 2 smartphone maker, is a security threat and is obliged to do the ruling Communist Party’s bidding. U.S. officials have provided no evidence for their assertions that the company, based in southern China’s Shenzhen, may use its equipment for espionage.

CCTV ran a Daily Show clip that highlighted Huawei’s lead in 5G technology. It did not include parts of the segment featuring concerns over China’s potential ability to spy using Huawei-equipped 5G networks.

“Recently, famous American talk show host Trevor Noah expressed his views on America’s relentless suppression of Huawei,” the CCTV host said. “He says the reason for the suppression is because Huawei possesses advanced 5G technology, while American 5G lags far behind.”

It then ran the Daily Show clips where Noah states, “And right now, the best 5G technology is made by a Chinese company called Huawei.”

“While America is developing its own 5G, China’s 5G is so far ahead. They’re basically going to set the trends,” Noah says. “So, this is a race many people are already saying America has lost.”

The Daily Show has always been anti-American.

“The Daily Show has always been anti-American.”

Just celebrating the memory of Tiananmen Square.

He was given a H-1B visa because Comedy Central said they couldn't find any funny American comedians.

They lied. He's not funny either.

Isn’t he South African?

“The Daily Show has always been anti-American.”

Very apt the ChiComs would use it as propaganda. It’s not like we cannot “keep up” with them on 5G. It’s MUCH more the just faster connection speed. There are severe privacy and other issues. The Huawei lead is because they have the ChiComs
backing and the privacy issues are considered a feature not a bug by them.

Boycotts after-the-fact never work. But this does:

Just. Don’t. Let. Them. In.

[Lurkinanloomin]

That smirking little foreigner is South African.

Fellow anti-American Daily Show alum include Samantha Bee (Canadian) and John Oliver (British).

Don't you love how foreigners now come to our country and tell us how evil we are?

Remember when foreigners came here and thanked America for letting them become Americans?

[SauronOfMordor]

Deport him back to South Africa.

[Robert357]

The Daily Show has just become propaganda and lost all sense of balance for a long time now.

Thanks yesthatjallen. It's called being a foreign-born demagogue on the take.

Partner, the Clintoon Crime Syndicate gave the ChiComs so much of our "American Know How" and "Technology" and all of this for free as long as the Chicoms filled their coffers thru the Clintoon Foundation.

We are so glad that Miss Hillary was crying after the election and we will not be satisfied until she goes into a courtroom with hand cuffs and ankle cuffs/braces in an orange jump suit and she is found guilty of all crimes committed. She and Bill Clintoon have gotten away so far with a lot of crimes that would send them to Fort Leavenworth for a Long, Long time. Heck, we would not mind it one bit if they died in prison for crimes committed against the U.S.A.

Partner, a great line and the whole truth about the Chicoms.

We have been to China and seen how we have built up that country. It is shameful to say the least.

They will lie, steal and cheat to get ahead of the U.S., since the Chicoms see the U.S.A. as their biggest threat right now. I ain't lying either.

President Trump will not give away our technology and $$$ to that corrupt country belonging to the Chicoms. We have seen how the Clintoon, W. Bush and the "America Hating Piece of Work Obama."

Partner, the Chicoms have not even thought of paying the British for "Hong Kong", since the British paid for the building up of Hong Kong. The Chicoms have gotten this for free. Beyond words.
