“And dragons! There be dragons!” added Stewart.
Moments earlier, Stewart knocked Trump for focusing on the city amid an “orgy of mass shootings” over the weekend.
He turned to Trump’s “telling” response to Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek, who tried to explain to the president over the phone that Portland wasn’t in a “state of war.”
