The democratic party, and roy moore who is not allowed at parties. [ laughter ] one more. Thats right, the election is tomorrow, and roy moore is already setting up for his victory celebration. [ crowd groans ] bridge too far . [ applause ] overstayed my welcome . Okay, i hear you loud and clear. Four women today accused celebrity chef mario batali of sexual misconduct, and when he found out, batali was so depressed he could barely dress himself for the past five years. [ laughter ] [ applause ] according to the New York Times, President Trump sometimes watches msnbcs morning joe because it fires him up for the day. Its the same reason he watches dora. [ light laughter ] why doesnt she give me more time to answer . I knew where the key was, it was just so fast. The New York Times also said there is a rule in the white house that no one is allowed to touch the tv remote except President Trump, and the Technical Support staff, and i know that sounds insane, but, remember, thats literally the only rule. [ light laughter ] a former facebook executive recently said that he feels tremendous guilt about helping to create the company while the creator of tinder said, i feel nothing. [ laughter ] according to a gallup poll, 80 of russians approve of Vladimir Putins leadership, while the other 20 are missing. [ light laughter ] [ applause ] im sure theyre fine. Theyll turn up.

[ light laughter ] and finally, according to reports prince harry has chosen to quit smoking for his fiance meghan markle. More for me, said the queen. [ laughter ] ladies and gentlemen we have a great show for you tonight. [ cheers and applause ] hes the star of blackish on nbc, and is the voice of bones the bull in the animated movie ferdinand. Anthony anderson is back on the show, always a delight to have him here. [ cheers and applause ] she just received a golden globe nomination for her performance in a great new film downsizing, hong chau is here tonight. [ cheers and applause ] talk about that fantastic film, and we will have standup comedian Amanda Seales is here, shes very funny. [ cheers and applause ] im very much looking forward to you getting to see her. Before we get to all of our fantastic guests, President Trump is pulling out all the stops to help elect an accused sexual predator in tomorrows special election in alabama, and thats because roy moore and donald trump have a lot in common, up to and including the fact that theyre both wildly unfit for office. For more on this its time for a closer look. [ cheers and applause ] for most people selfcare usually involves eating well, getting some exercise, or staying off social media. For donald trump it means periodically holding a rally to bask in the warm embrace of his supporters, and relive the 2016 election as he did yet again on friday in florida. The great state of florida, where we had a tremendous victory, didnt we . Michigan hadnt been won in many, many years by a republican. We went to wisconsin, hadnt been won in many, many years, and her husband supposedly said, you better go to wisconsin, and she said no, no, no, bunch of dummies, just a bunch of dummies. Do you remember, there is no way for donald trump to get 270. We heard that for week after week, and we won. Seth oh, my god, get over it, man trump is like a guy who threw one touchdown in high school, and tells the story to everybody who comes into his bar, hes the buddy garrity of american politics. [ laughter ] of course, our current catch22 is this, is it better for trump to obsess over his election win, or to focus on and potentially mishandle the north Korean Nuclear crisis. Hes clearly more comfortable talking about his win as evidenced by the fact that he briefly mentioned north korea, and then immediately veered off his prepared remarks to undercut himself. As part of a campaign of maximum pressure on the vile dictatorship of north korea, we have imposed the toughest ever sanctions passed by the United Nations security council, and we have a lot of other sanctions, but you know i dont know that sanctions are going to work with him, we got to give it a shot, you know, well see. Who knows . Ill just tell you, folks, youre in good hands, thats all i can say. [ crowd groans ] seth you cant say youre in good hands right after a sentence that makes it clear were not in good hands, thats like saying im good to drive and then sticking your keys into the gas tank. [ light laughter ] [ applause ] now, at the very least you might be reassured by the fact that our allies like nato have our back in a potential crisis, but trump has gone out of his way to pick fights with those allies over what he falsely claims is their refusal to pay for military assistance. A line he repeated on friday. I told the people of nato, standing right behind me, while they were standing behind me, they have been delinquent. They havent been paying. I said, you got to pay, you got to pay, and i guess i implied if you dont pay, were out of there, right . So well have a nation that doesnt pay, then their nation gets frisky with whoever. Seth gets frisky . Our president refers to war the same way your grandparents refer to sex. You know, after a couple of sherries, russia can get pretty frisky. Of course for trump the substance of the speech is itself meaningless compared to the validation he receives from the crowd. So naturally his fragile ego was once again bruised when a reporter for the Washington Post dave weigel tweeted a photo of the arena where trump spoke with many empty seats. Now weigel quickly deleted the tweet after realizing it was misleading, but that didnt stop trump from whining about it on twitter writing, dave weigel, Washington Post put out a phony photo of an empty arena hours before i arrived, demand apology and retraction from fake news Washington Post. And weigel in return did the standup thing, apologized, tweeting, i apologize, it was a bad tweet on my personal account, not a story for Washington Post. I deleted it after like 20 minutes, very fair to call me out. So there you go, trump demanded a retraction and apology, got a retraction and apology, which im sure he accepted with grace, and im just kidding, our colicky man baby president wouldnt shut the hell up about it. President trump called for his dismissal. Quote, dave weigel of the Washington Post just admitted that his picture was a fake, fraud, showing an almost empty arena last night for my speech in pensacola, when in fact he knew the arena was packed as shown also on tv. Fake news. He should be fired. Seth you know, im not sure getting fired for false tweets is really a precedent you of all people want to send. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] i mean if tweeting something incorrect was a fireable offense, you would have had to give your inaugural address while holding a Cardboard Box full of your stuff. Well its great to be here, but ive been fired. But this goes to the very heart of trumps world view, one set of rules for him and the people closest to him, another set of rules for everyone else. If youre an immigrant, or a minority, and trump thinks you broke the law, he only wants to punish you. If youre a white man close to him, whos been accused of a crime, trump thinks you deserve leniency. If youre a reporter, and you make a mistake, trump wants you fired, but if youre trump, or one of his acolytes you get to lie brazenly with impunity. Reporters are human, human beings make mistakes, the difference is, when reporters get something wrong theyre accountable, take responsibility for those mistakes. Trump lies as often as he breathes, and yet when asked if he has ever made a mistake said only this. That notion of forgiveness, thats not a central tenant for you . Well i try not to make mistakes where i have to ask for forgiveness for one thing. The idea of repentance. Is that something thats important to you . I think repenting is terrific, i mean but do you feel the need to . Why do i have to you know, repent . Why do i have to ask for forgiveness if youre not making mistakes . Seth i would love to see trump in a confessional. Forgive me father, but i nailed it again. Another perfect week, zero hail marys, and zero our fathers. In the name of the donald, the trump, and the holy me. [ laughter ] [ applause ] trump constantly lashes out at the media, even though he seems to spend so much of his time watching cable news. In fact, in a behind the scenes account of trumps daily routine, the New York Times reported over the weekend that trump spends at least four hours a day, and sometimes as much as twice that in front of a television. Eight hours, whos letting him watch that much tv. Even netflix checks in on you after three hours. [ laughter ] but the most important take away from this article is the shocking degree to which trump is temperamentally and emotionally unfit for office, and the degree to which hes in over his head. Which brings us back to that rally in florida. Even though it wasnt in alabama, the main theme of the rally was trumps fullthroated support for a candidate who is just as unfit for office as he is, roy moore. Alabamas special election is tomorrow, and trump used the rally once again as an opportunity to urge his supporters to back moore, an accused child molester. At one point he even repeated his support for moore at the urging of someone in the crowd. This guys screaming we want roy moore, hes right. Just so i can satisfy this gentleman out there. How many people here are from the great state of alabama . So get out, and vote for roy moore. Seth hes taking requests from the crowd now. We dont have a president , we have a radio dj. Youre listening to donnie in the morning, this next one goes out to roy moore, and its called banned from the ymca. [ light laughter ] now, trump and moore have a lot in common including their penchant for conspiracy theories, alleged sexual predation, and the fact that theyre both grossly unfit for office. Lets not forget that even before the allegations against moore surfaced, he was removed from office twice for disobeying court orders, said homosexual conduct should be illegal, and said muslims should be barred from serving in congress, and like trump he also seems to be an admirer of Vladimir Putin. In august, moore was asked about a quote from Ronald Reagan who said, russia was the focus of evil in the modern world, and said this he said that russia was the focus of evil in the modern world. You could say that very well about america, couldnt you . Do you think . Well, we promote a lot of bad things, you know. Like . Samesex marriage. Thats the very argument that Vladimir Putin makes. Well, then, maybe putin is right. Maybe hes more akin to me than i know. What would you say to him . [ speaking in russian ] [ crowd groans ] seth its pretty alarming when a guy slips into fluent russian, and it isnt even the most sinister part of the clip. Is roy moore a character on the americans . It would make sense. He dresses the way a russian would think americans dress. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] [ russian accent ] dimitri, here. Here is cowboy hat dimitri, wear this, become judge. Is this a good way of talking . Yes dimitri, that is southern talk. I dont like homosexuals. Very good dimitri, very convincing. So, youve got donald trump the president , and the leader of the Republican Party enthusiastically supporting roy moore. Two accused sexual predators, and outspoken admirers of vladamir putin, one, a wannabe authoritarian strong man, and the other, a lawless theocrat, and in other words bunch of dummies. Seth this has been a closer look.
