My special election fallout shelter which is stocked with everything i need. Ive got a bottle of Hand Sanitizer to clean my hands and another bottle of Hand Sanitizer to clean the other bottle of Hand Sanitizer. If the power goes down, i have board games, i have a boom box over there and something close to a playstation. Most importantly, ive got this place locked down tight. This election fallout shelter is grade 5 military bunker level which means its impenetrable to nuclear weapons, Chemical Attacks and even the most roy wood, jr. Hey, whats up . Trevor how did you get into my election fallout shelter. Im doing the show live. This is top security, what are you doing . I got your password, wakanda 123. Trevor dont say it out loud. You want me to leave . Trevor no, youre in the bubble. Did you get tested . No, aint got no 5g in my neighborhood. Im good. Trevor you should still get tested. Its a joke, calm down, affect. Trevor i cant calm down on a night like tonight. Ready for Election Results . Yeah, man. Im a little nervous. But they aint gonna get me like they got me in 2016. I got some staff to keep me calm, the pink stuff and some liquor. I got a little tequila. I aint getting up off the couch because this one is for my urine. You know, so i got one for you know. All right, this is the tequila. Thats my bad. Im going to put a p on this one for please drink this one. Trevor i dont think your system is going to work, roy. But you might need that booze because i dont know if you have been seeing the results from tonight but trump has started out strong because hes looking good in North Carolina and hes probably going to win florida. And i dont know, roy, i was actually hoping that maybe florida would surprise us like they did with obama but i des they really like trump. I dont know why youre so surprised about florida. First of all, i went to college in florida. I can tell you about florida. Aint but two good things in florida, south beach and disney world. The rest is strange people in pickup trucks trying to sell you baby alligators. Trevor it makes sense. Trump is the ultimate florida mascot hes got the tan, all his friends are in jail, somehow he has money, and he has a much younger wife who was dressed up really nicely to cast her vote. As we mentioned, we saw First Lady Melania Trump at the polling site in west palm beach, florida. You can see her on the left side of the screen. She just finished casting her ballot one she would assume for her husband in one to have the three usually battleground states we are watching very closely. Im pretty certain melania is the only first lady who people can only assume she voted for her husband. She could have voted early but she waited for election day, like, im an undecided voter as trump what about the things i did for you . He gave her corona. Dont spread rumors. Youre right. I think melania voted for trump because if he wins, melanias married to the president of the United States. If he loses, shes just married to donald trump. That sucks. You know what, though . I dont even think thats really about donald trump. I dont think anybody really want to vote for him. My girl put the knives in the dishwasher blade up, i couldnt trust her with the nuclear code. Trevor hes win ago lot more votes from hispanic and black people than in 2016. I dont know if this has anything to do with it but hes had a lot of rappers come out to support. At a rally in florida President Trump introduced hispanic rapper lil pump though he incorrectly referred to him as lil pimp. Trevor speaking of music, one of the big superstars of the world, little pimp. There he is. Hows it going . You want to come up and Say Something in. Trevor okay, a pump and a pimp are very different things. If your basement is flooded and a pimp shows up, thats not going to end well. We need a hose. Well, i brought you some hose. Cinnamon, grab a bucket, bitch. Whats crazy is eminem came out and endorsed joe biden. Thats the world we live in. Who would have thought the white rappers would be with biden and the black people would have been trump. The first time black people appropriated something from white people. Trevor we might as well go to one of the Trump CampaignCampaign Headquarters to catch up with desi lydic. Any news to report . Thanks, trevor. I am here at the Trump Victory party. Right now, theres no news to report. But if a winner is declared, the reporter on camera gets to announce it. So im just going to keep on talking talking, talking, talking any minute we could learn who the winner is and i could be the one saying who the next president is on tv making history. But you know, its not about me. Its really about the american voters. Take them away. We know what voters look like. Tonight is about democracy, trevor, democracy. Lets think about that word for a minute while we wait with me on camera. Websters dictionary defines democracy as a system of government by the whole population. Its a noun of greek or origin. I believe its based on the greek democris, a creek dragon who lived in ancient athens and would pick a president. Hold on. Theyre making an announcement. Could this be it . Desis one shining shift no, just a waiter announcing crab cakes. Something else, Something Else oh, you know, trevor, sometimes it can be hard to put nights like these in context and as so often is the case we turn to the words of poets, and i think my feelings now can be expressed by al pacinos four and a half minute locker room speech on any given sunday which i watched in my hotel room on tnt. On this team we fight for that inch on this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We crawl with our fingernails for that inch hooah hold on, trevor, theyre making an announcement. Could this be it . cheering yes crab cakes are back. Do not go to trevor, you stay on me. Ill be right back. You stay on me trevor no, thats enough. Im not waiting around to see desi get crab cakes. Well take a quick break, come back with more Election Results and check in with our correspondents around the country. Don cheadle and dr. Tressie mcmillan cottom will stop by later to give us they are perspectives on everything thats going down so far, howdy folks Colonel Sanders here to make dinner time a little easier. Mealtimes can be overwhelming. Especially when youre trying to work, parent, and help with the schooling all at once. So let us help with kfcs 20 fill ups. Its like a homecooked meal you dont have to cook. Drivethrus open. Or get contactless delivery. Into it. In the senate, Democrat John hickenlooper has beaten republican incumbents cory gardner. But in alabama republican challenger Tommy Tuberville has defeated democrat incumbent doug jones. And in kentucky Mitch Mcconnell has defeated democrat amy mcgrath. So it appears, unlike his hands, Mitch Mcconnells seat will not be turning blue. If theres one thing we cannot deny about 2020 is that it has sucked balls. Also coronavirus has made everything weird. Youve got a face mask drawer next to your underwear drawer. Your delivery guy throws food at you like a broke ass quarterback and even your creepy aunt doesnt kiss you on the mouth anymore. With the coronavirus pandemic making social distancing a must sporting venues have been transformed into polling locations across the country from the k. F. C. Center in louisville to phillys union stadium. Arenas and stadiums uparent the only places repurposed. You can cast ballots at the citys tar pits, this texas location allows people to vote without ever leaving their car. In San Francisco the neptune society, home to 8500 cremated remains, is now a polling site. Trevor people are even voting in crematoriums . Probably smells better than a middle school gym, but, man i think its more strange to vote at a sports arena. A sports arena is where you go to argue with people because they dont support the same team you support. You fight with people because theyre on a Different Team youre right. Its probably a good place to vote. Trevor you know what, dude, no matter how weird the place was, people have turned out to vote in record numbers this year, so we actually sent Jordan Klepper to speak with the voters in a special election day addition of finger the pulse. Its election day im here in brooklyn where the lines are around two, three people. Im guessing its because people already made a plan and voted early, either that or our democracy is crumbling. I prefer the first one. Whoa, yay, voting day i assume you voted for hometown boy donald trump. Hell, no, if his balls were cut off today, i would be happy. The reason im not so fond of this administration is because i believe in a true system of governance based on honest and fairness. Then youve had a pretty shitty four years. Yeah. Why did you vote today . I hate donald trump and want him to get out of office. No, why tid you vote today and not six days ago when all the cool kids were voting. Because the lines were long. You might not get paul rudd voting today, you might get spiderman. I like spiderman. Some people waited till election day to cast their vote and some people waited until election day to think about the election. Im undecided. Youre an undecided voters . I didnt know they existed in the wild. Why were you undecided up to this point . Nobody is toward my interest. Have you officially made a decision in your head . When i get off the train in the bronx. Trevor what do you expect to happen on the train to help you make up your mind . Because my experience on the subway, im not usually thinking. Ill flip a quarter. Heads trump loses, tails biden wins. How do you figure that . Im kind of smart for this. Heads trump, biden tails. Biden wins. 400 years of campaigning and its a coin flip. Were folks prepared to avoid the heart weak of 2016 . How are you keeping expectations in check on a day like today. I am not. Im fully should into hope. Trevor thats not 2008. Did you have a voting strategy not to jinx it. No, to get through the night tonight which is basically to drink. Youre taking my strategy. Its election day, you have to take an i vote. One, two, three, thank you very much. Delete that shit right away because you dont want to drink anything. Okay. This could stretch into long days or weeks. Are these people patient enough . Of course, over lounge howevt takes, it takes and if these mother bleep do not count every absentee vote, every vote needs to be counted. You need to let democracy play out. Were satisfied to counted county them all. Trump wants the Election Results to come right now and he rolls over and the rest of us are not even starred. Donald trump wants to start tonight. I know. Were satisfied if we count all the votes. Absolutely. Explore the entire electoral map. Democrats need to experience democracy. Thats right. And after a stressful election we all know its important to decompress. Im going to take a a mindfulness walk because this is so stressful. Tell us about it. We do breathing techniques and walk around and think about, like, the present moment and try to stay in that present moment. Im closing my eyes. I need the calm. Breathe in. Breathe in with the country is in bad shape now, breathe out that our country will be in better shape. Im breathing out the last four years with the idea that people will probably start campaigning for the next president ial season in about a month and a half. Exactly. Deep breaths, america, you can do this. Trevor thank you so much Jordan Klepper. Were going to take a short break.

Im still here with my good friend roy wood, jr. Roy, you doing good . This is how im doing. Okay. Its stressful. This is how im doing. Trevor i dont understand. Roy, if one of those bottles is urine and one is tequila, how come theyve both gone down. I lost my taste since a couple of days ago so ive just been hitting both of them. I cant really smell it either . Im beginning to think this is a terrible idea. Here are more results coming in. Here are more interesting issues on the ballot. Florida passed a 15 minimum wage. Congratulations on that. New jersey has legalized marijuana, and d. C. Has decriminalized mushrooms. All right, please trust me, d. C. , tonight is not the night to try shrooms for the first time. If trump wins again, all drugs should be legalized. We cant go through the next four years sober. I need heroin gummies at least. Lets catch up with dulce sloan who voted earlier today, to get her analysis. Dulce, whats going on . Hi, trevor, just waiting to vote. I have been standing in this line forever and thats how you know im voting in a black district because the state only gave us one voting booth. Mmhmm. This is worse than the time i was waiting for my trash man to pick me you have after my hair was done. How are you going to pick me up late when the only reason youre driving around town is you borrowed my car keys . We can even turn Voter Suppression into a matter. You want to check out my c. D. Player . I already told you no. No one has a c. D. Player anymore anyway. Craziest thing, im not voting in the 2020 election. Im still trying to vote for hillary. ringing ive got to go. I know you didnt hit another mailbox. We really need those today. Trevor wow, dulce, sorry you had such a stressful day. Good luck with the hilary vote. Doesnt end well. My first guest is an Award Winning actor, activist who you know from black monday and the avengers, joins me to talk about selfproclaimed role as a dem voter in 2020, please welcome don cheadle. Are you finished telling about the Election Results . Trevor io trevor you don want any spoilers . Yeah, no spoilers. It will be hell or heaven when i find out. Trevor okay, so whats the plan for you . Are you not going to hear any results till its all done or do you want to just wake up what if this goes for, like, two weeks . Its probably going to go for, like, two weeks. I dont want to listen tonight. Its just not worth it. laughter trevor youre currently on set. Youre doing a new stephen sotoburg movie. Your showtime series is coming up on monday. Did you vote early . What was your voting strategy . Actually, my wife came out, visited, brought my ballot, took it back to california, put it in a mailbox a real one, got the results back and yeah, im good. Im in. Trevor i loved how you described yourself as a single issue dem voter which is an interesting one for 2020. What is that single issue for don cheadle . Whoever can beat him. Early in the primaries i didnt want to back anybody because i was trying to figure out who would boat him. Because anyone on that stage tonight is better than who we have now. So i was just really hoping who would beat trump and put my Energy Behind them. Trevor you have been vocal from the beginning. I know you were a big Bernie Sanders supporter. When joe biden won the nomination, you helped out with Campaign Events from joe biden. Some people criticized you, like Bernie Sanders said theres a bigger issue on the ballots here and we have to come together. I know some people talk to you. Do you think you manage to convince some people about the greater good . I hope so, right. I mean, were going to see what the result of that is pretty soon, and i would never, you know, try to say it was a result of me personally moving someone in one direction or the other. I just want to talk about what i believe is important. I wish we could have made a big conglomerate of all the candidates. I think, clearly, the things that separated those candidates, all of those candidates, warren, bernie, joe biden, exactly exace degrees they were separated were small compared to what we were dealing with on the other side. Again, i wanted to throw my Energy Behind whoever was coming out on top and help them get to the finish line. Trevor one to have big issues you have been passionate about is Voter Suppression. Youve teamed up with events or organizations fighting Voter Suppression, you have been outspoken, been moving the needle in a direction where more people get to cast the ballot where they should because its their right. Have you seen any signs of progress or is there any optimism that has come from the work you have been part of over the last few years . Well, i think its always a situation where its going to be a continuing fight, right. People are always going to try to gain the system game the system to try to make it work out for their benefit. Its always two steps forward, one step back. If we prevail and we have a biden harris presidency, i think then another form of work will begin, another level of work has to we all have to pick up that ball and continue to push for things that we want and continue to be progressive. So i think the voter turnout this year, you know, before today has been i dont know, tripled or unbelievable. So clearly people are inspired and theyre, you know, energized, and that energy is going to have to keep going. Its not over, no matter what happens. Kind of like the fight starts, another fight starts. Trevor its a fight that feels like it continues from generation to generation, and i know that youve got two daughters
