also, japanese prime minister shinzo antibiot shinzo abe saying the situation here is the most dangerous since the end of world war ii. dave? well the countdown of the olympics continues, 35 days away. meanwhile, steve bannon versus donald trump. pundits for late night hosts. according to a new book called fire and fury, donald trump didn t want to be president. he didn t want him to win. there s a name for that. the majority of american voters. really. melania cried on election night. that is the first thing we have in common. whoa. don junior is going to crack like an egg. honestly i don t know if it that s a metaphor. i think there s a 50% chance you d find yoke where a brain
looks like a rotting haystack made of meat, you cannot. trump gave life to all the late night hosts. he s a human, what is wrong with this picture. trump keeps creating the material. he s going to look at them in the camera and say, isis, stop it. have you ever seen anything like this in another presidency? there s never been anything like this in a presidency. we ve never had this many late night shows before. we went into the weekend worrying about kim jong-un starting a war, we came out of it wondering if our president is cutting eye holes out of his bed sheets. how many are members of the resistance? colbert and seth meyers are the voice of the resistance. basically, their whole shows are about trump. i said it was a stunt and he would never really run.
like oh, okay, i guess some people are really in to this and i m not. that was sarah gordon. she is one of four new women to come forward in the last 24 hours accusing veteran journalist charlie rose of sexual misconduct. three cbs employees also say rose made unwanted sexual advances towards them. during his time at cbs news, that s more recent than the initial report that sparked his firing on monday from cbs and tbs. when at least eight women told the washington post that rose made unwanted sexual advances toward them. including lewd phone calls. walking around naked in their presence and groping them. unlike harvey weinstein, he is not getting a break from the late night hosts. watch. cbs just fired charlie rose after allegations of sexual harassment. they told him to clear out his desk, put on his pants and leave.
