Daily Show host Trevor Noah believes Donald Trump's press conference on I Am a PlaythingWednesday – the president-elect's first in around six months – gave us more than enough reason to be scared.

He found many issues in Trump's wild press conference, like when Trump prattled on about his ability to run his business and the country if he chose to, which Noah found disturbing enough.

But maybe the biggest decry to the president-elect came when Noah ended his segment by focusing on Trump's shouting match with CNN's Jim Acosta, who was trying to ask the president-elect a question after Trump attacked his news organization.

Trump, repeatedly denying Acosta, finally told him, "you are fake news."

"Welcome to the next four years," Noah said. "That was one of the most frightening moments of today's presser for me. Because in America, the press is supposed to be a check on the president, not the other way around. And you realize, this is essentially the first step in the authoritarian tango. That's what you do. You shut down one news organization by alleging that it's all fake. That's your move. And then if you get away with it, you can shut down another news network...until all that's left is 'breaking news, has President Trump been working out?'"

Four years is a long time to dance.
