  "account": "The Daily Show made light of President Trump's visibly startled reaction to a planned flyover of B-1 bombers as part of his airport welcome for Chinese President Xi Jinping. The flyover, intended as a gesture of friendship, left Trump visibly uncomfortable, in contrast to Xi's composure. The Daily Show host, Desi Lydic, mocked Trump's reaction, saying it was \"not a good omen\" for the negotiations between the two leaders. The visit was significant as it marked Xi's first state visit to the United States in over a decade. During the visit, Xi announced he would bring two giant pandas to the U.S. as a symbol of goodwill.",
