Thank you so much for coming out. Take a seat. Thank you so much for coming out. Welcome, everybody. Im trevor noah, and this is the daily shows yearend special, the yearly show. Welcome to it. This is a Little Something we decided to put together to wrap up the year. The year is not over, but were all gonna die, so we figured why not just do this . It was a crazy year, 2017 Sexual Harassment, russians, russians sexually harassing the election, Something Like that. Now the republicans, they got to work hard. They got to get rid of obamacare.

They are brilliant at political branding. Democrats, nice people, have no clue how to brand, none whatsoever. Like, they just throw things against the wall, see what sticks. Resist
