_"I will run the government, like I run my business"_
One of the 4 true statements, ever spoken by the Orangutan.
Hey, I LIKE Orangutans and they don't deserve to be lumped with him, LOL! I call him the "Cheeto in Chief" myself!!!
not sure if you spelled this right. did you mean Ruin or run ?
Trump isn't sure of the difference either.
Use other peoples money, run it into the ground and blame everyone but himself. Is that what you mean?
the_dead_poet and he was right, Its a matter of time before the country file for bankruptcy just like his business.
Classic Trump roasting Trump. I'm not even American but what a huge embarrassment he is, just to the human race in general
no14sure I’m an American, thanks for not assuming we can’t all agree on this no matter what nationality we are. We hate him too! ❤️
Guess you havnt heard of Candada's PM, ex-drama teacher part time ski instructor with his "its the current year" mentality
so you get your News from late night shows!? and thats gossple to you!?
omg.. try having him as your "leader". You can't avoid him for a single day.
Inquisitive Cameron I do it all the time. Try it, it's not hard. Only time I don't is when I intentionally click on things like this. If you're unable to avoid him, sounds like a personal problem and that you have some willpower & self-control issues to work on.
Proud to be a Nova Scotian! You go girls!
Solidarity dude, that's all.
Does anyone else get chills when they show those old videos? I feel like it was right in front of us all along and therefore could have been prevented.
RachelBaileyO_O Oh, it could have been prevented just at the point of certification of the votes of the Electoral College. This has made me ill for a year.
RachelBaileyO_O Whoa I never thought of that! u r so right! Scary.
Nova Scotian here; Yeah, our town's are pretty tiny. Our capital city's also pretty dinky. But we're second in most bars per capita, next to St. Johns. Come over, have a drink with us some time.
Okay So an apostrophe is never used to make a plural. Ironically, isn't it St. John's?
Jessica Lee not if the saint's last name was Johns. Like Peter Johns.
Okay So Idk if it's irony or karma for trump, since he made those statements before he became president.
Sounds like my kind of town.
Ayyyyyyyy new scotland!
"the whole world is laughing at us" part is preeeetty accurate
@serenity s: Laughing and utterly terrified.
serenity s. Donald Trump is a court jester.
Part laughing. Crying now.
Laverne Blaszczyk I feel you. laughing crying here in Canberra.
serenity s Yeah. We always our fucking asses of. And Trump and the Republicans really thought that they are going to get respected again. Bwahahahah. The US reputation has never been lower. Even Bush was more respected. Far more.
The size of the Women's March is impressive. Even in Canada. From small town Nova Scotia to Vancouver BC, across the United States, and all across the world. Even in my hometown (Edmonton Alberta) there was a sizable march.
Taco1011 They need to go March in Africa or the Middle-East. They aren't helping by doing that in the Western world.
Taco1011 Scarlett Johansson believes in Due Process for Woody Allen yet shamed James Franco. Meryl Streep and Natalie Portman both supported Roman Polanski.
Not really a surprise considering they typically work less hours.
The translation of that little girl's sign is: this is a fucking mess.
Hey, this was the guy who back in November of 2016 said that unemployment numbers are fake and we actually have historically high unemployment, and by January of 2017, when he was inaugurated, claimed the same low unemployment numbers were to his credit...
Loves to take credit for other people's work... Within an hour of the end of the government shutdown I bet he tweets that it was his hard work that ended it, and he is the 'greatest' deal maker in presidential history... again...
Tbf, i believe that’s because the terms of being considered unemployed changed under Obama
word's doesn't mean anything with Trump
He did 100% have the lowest black unemployment in USA history.
Thanks for curing my depression, Seth.
i'm german and i can confirm that the whole world is looking at you and laughing at you
(nervously, while prepping their bomb shelters)
Kate S I mean no disrespect, but do Germans satirize Trump like US does Hitler? He's not responsible 4 millions of deaths (yet), but he does have an aversion 2 non-whites. He's as much of a puchline as he is powerful. They deny it, but Trump supporters r more devoted 2 him than the US.
well she's been in office for 12 years and we haven't come close to defunding children's healthcare, nor have we had (quick google search) ELEVEN school shootings this year??? how do you even do that??? IT'S JANUARY
i don't know how hitler is "satirized" in the US so i can't answer that
Shouldn't you be concerned with your immigration problems in your country?
Well since he has german acestry I guess we should prepare for WWIII!
My favourite thing is watching old quotes by Trump that completely throw current President Trump under the bus. It's truly amazing how many there are out there.
Bobbybobob, we all grow up. What was said when younger and full of ourselves may have been re evaluated as we get older or even how we looked at women. I use to think of them as nothing more than pieces of ass as fine as they were but now i have a different perspective from an older wiser man as i age, i only wish women would grow out of the manipulating bitches they were when younger looking for mr. Right and mature into more humble and respectable ladies you'd think their parents would hope them to be than when in my yute, if you don't think thats possible of trump then you yourself have a lot of growing up to do.
John Squire - but with the sheer abundance of footage and tweets of Trump still behaving like a petulant overgrown toddler, then perhaps he is incapable of such emotional intelligence. He seems utterly incapable of self reproach so why would he ever change his behaviour? There are always exceptions to the rule.
Can you imagine how fucked we would be if Trump had taken office in 2008 after a financial crisis rather than after the economy had been repaired and he just gets to reap the rewards and pretend it was his doing?
+psycold Trump has a degree in economics from an Ivy League school, so it's too bad he wasn't around for the 2008 fiasco. See Scott Adams' recent book for details on Trump's important economic insights.
Open Comments He also bankrupted a casino. Not a good call for a country.
Trump is about to be wrapped up in an even worse financial situation. Just you wait.
Lee Czere don't forget that it was at Las Vegas, who bankrupts a. Casino in las Vegas?
thanks, now I'm going to have nightmares about that.
Stormy Daniels was on the other end of the line.
Or Putin.
aprilwearsgucci , Or Putin’s ballsack 🤔
Haha so true!
Ivanka lol
It's so hilarious when he contradicts himself.. constantly. That past interview is sadly, pathetically hilarious.
I understand that folk support their political party, but this is crazy. Do they hear him? Do they hear the same stuff we hear?
Brenda Tucker they think that it's all fake news
You'd be surprised by the lengths some people go to so they can continue to blindly support their party
Michael Anderson. No. You’re a perfect example of how Republicans have brainwashed their followers. Hillary being under attack for decades for refusing to stay in her place is not what corruption is.
Michael Anderson 1) Sexism isn’t a card to be played. It’s not a game. It’s real. Instead of dismissively rejecting the issue, why don’t you do some research? Hillary isn’t dirty by any standards and certainly not when compared to Trump. I’m not saying she’s perfect by any stretch of the imagination and she’s pissed me off from time to time but she’s simply not corrupt.
@@tiawilliams5690 👏 yup!
It hasn’t been that long but I’ve missed Seth
Wow, what an insane way to start off season two of "The Trump Presidency"
#GrabThembytheMidterms
Now THAT’S one program I want cancelled.
Bwhahahaahaha thats perfect
Eckhart of the Cygnus Knights it is a great start for season two, I just hope the show doesn't get as repetitive as the last season. If it does I really think the network should consider cancelling it.
Knowing Trump, I'm sure the next couple of episodes will blow this one clean out of the water, possibly literally.
I love when they pull old footage and tweets of Trump. His past self is calling present self out on his own BS
Reminds me of Quantum Leap.
So... are we tired of winning yet?
Don't we have to actually win to be tired of winning...? So I guess the answer is no? Tired of Trump's dumb ass though.
Trump's had one of the most productive first years of any president. Between, the travel ban, tax cuts, adjustments to Obamacare, and general impact on PC culture, I'd say he's won quite a bit. What did Obama do in his first year? I'm drawing a blank.
Phatnaru, since you're too lazy & entrenched in your half-witted beliefs, let me do the 'hard' work of googling that for you: Let's start in the only reasonable place to start: the economy. When Obama entered the White House, the potential for a second Great Depression was very real. The start of his falling poll numbers came from the state of the economy forcing the president to do things that were wildly unpopular, like bailing out the banks and auto industry, and advocating for and passing a nearly $800bn economic stimulus package.
A year later, the economy didn't collapse. According to president's Council of Economic Advisers, the stimulus has already saved or created two million jobs, meaning that, without action, unemployment would be closer to 11.2%.
The Troubled Asset Relief Programme (Tarp), however unpopular, succeeding in keeping the US financial system afloat. The frozen credit markets have thawed. The Dow-Jones share index gained over 30% on the year. And for all its unpopularity, the fast majority of the Tarp funds will be paid back by the banks that received them, and whatever shortfall is left will be compensated for by new fees on the largest banks. Taxpayers had to invest a shocking amount of money into the financial institutions to bail them out - but a year later, almost all that money has been or will be recovered. That is extraordinary.
There are other critical legislative achievements as well. At this point, it looks mostly inevitable that Obama will be first president since Lyndon Johnson to try reforming health care and actually succeed. Whatever your opinion on the scope of the legislation, it's indisputable that this achievement is as historical as the legislation itself.
He signed the equal pay act. He signed hate crimes legislation. He dramatically increased investments in renewable energy. He delivered on his promise to change the secrecy of Washington by making his White House the most transparent of any in history. He is ending the war in Iraq, and is sensibly and cautiously executing a plan in Afghanistan that enjoys bipartisan support. And he has dramatically improved America's image abroad.
Dalewoodian damn.. beat me to it.
What makes you think I would give your reply the time of day when you start it with "since you're too lazy & entrenched in your half-witted beliefs". I gave no insult to you, but you're so arrogant and self-entitled that you drew an image of me in your head and began to speak to me as such.
Also, to put your reply into summary, no, Obama did nothing in his first year. thank you very much for proving my point.
One whole year has passed under DJ Trumpster, and on the anniversary of his inauguration, the government shuts down.
I think that’s symbolic of something.
Heracross X Still a better start then last year!!!
Heracross X Glad I'm not the only one who thought that.
People think they're clever for making me click one more time.
One year under DJT feels more like a 20yr rape sentence.
DEMS put illegals over US Military....so yes....it was a shut down
This episode is really well written.
Gabriel Kwiecinski Antunes trending too
"The deals come out of my ears!" -every used cars sales man ever
Hahaha... you elected a fool to run your country. I wouldn't want a 6 times bankrupt to run a corner shop, not less a country.
The fool was not democratically elected. In any case, Americans hate this guy. Read the comments here.
Peter Piper .... He was democraticaly elected.. you voted he 'won' and is now President. Just because your voting system is so flawed that USA is not classed as a true Democracy is a problem you all need to figure out (and gerrymandering too).
Carl McGregor hopefully he'll get impeached soon
I love that Trump believes that the Women's March is good for him.
When we have a parade to finally oust him from office, I fully expect to see him leading the charge and twirling a baton.
Adam it's cool to know that not one of those women are voting for Donny Jackass.
Adam :-)
Adam I think that’d be too athletic for him.
The key to being a true narcissist is to lack complete self awareness.
Twirling a baton is hard to do in handcuffs.
I can’t believe Seth skipped the best child sign: “I’m 6'3" and 239 lbs., too!”
Thank you to all the women and men across the world who have marched and continue outside of it fighting for the rights of all for many years before and to come...see y’all on March!
You're welcome, from the 'storm the castle' march in Palm Beach.
The USA, where the voices of sanity and reason mostly come from comedians.
ThewayICit Give the writers and production crew some credit 😓
What is more strange is many of hs would rather get our 'news' from the comedians than from 'actual news' sources.
I think I'd rather laugh with these guys than listen to the corporate driven mainsteam media.
Stephanie Cuellar Is just like to point out the corporate driven Media is Democrat, and so are all these democrats sooo
actually the corporate driven media is both democrat and republican....like faux news.....does being anti-drumpf make someone pro-democrats? in that case many republicans like ana navarro and john mccain would be considered democrats as well...
ThewayICit lmao that’s because you’re brainwashed and don’t even know it
Women's March - I'm with them!
That lil toddler gives a better signature than Trump does
Not only that, that toddler would be a better president than he is
And more mature than Trump too
I remember seeing his signature on wiki or something and being surprised by how nice it looked actually.
Don't you know? His signature is really a polygraph test result.
Inquisitive Cameron lol good one
6:56 I still wonder why in the hell would they let a picture like that come out. We all already knew he was doing any work, but the empty desk and hat really sold it that he was sitting on his ass doing nothing.
Amazing, isn't it? Not the fact that the photographers took that picture, but that Dumbo Donald actually believes that picture is "proof" of him "doing work." THAT'S how fucken dumbo that nitwit is. That's how incognizant that white supremacist rapist is.
I also saw a tweet about how disrespectful it was for Trump to wear that ball cap in the Oval Office.
His wig was off that day
Remember the aneurysm that RepubliKKKans had when Obama put his feet on the desk? And this dimwit wears a FUCKING BASEBALL CAP to the resolute desk!
Please impeach this fool already!
Super Secret You want Mike Pence as President?
Super Secret I'd like to see him excommunicated. He's a traitor and should move to Russia in his new Moscow Hotel.
He hasn't really done anything illegal yet. Being incompetent and lying isn't considered illegal. And he settled the Trump U case by paying some fine, I think.
DeathBySnuuuSnuuu honestly yes I think pence would be better - he may be more evil, but I think he's more controlled and more predictable. Trump is so crazy and uncontrollable that he could start a war without thinking. (Also hello fellow futurama fan :) )
DeathBySnuuuSnuuu I know what you mean. When Pence vouched for Flynn (BTW I never heard anyone corroborate someone by saying that "how do I know he didn't do it? He told me so and I believe him." R u serious, Pence? But oh Flynn lied to Pence. Now we know from the paper trail and third party testimony that Pence already knew by then that Flynn was compromised goods. So, the whole lot of them are liars. It's one thing to speak untruths, quite another to knowingly lie. And all the convenient amnesia from everyone who spoke to Russians.
Hey, maybe the Russians are using some psi mind manipulation (they study that stuff) and... nah, they just liars. Freaking traitors!
Stormy Daniels must be the only contractor to ever be paid by trump for services rendered.
Hope she got hazard pay, lol.
That is...too true.
TheGholiday...but it took 10 years
A shutdown falls on the President's lack of leadership. He can't even control his party and get people together in a room. A shutdown means the President is weak"
-Donald Trump 2013
Back in 2004, everyone (well, the GOP) was up in arms over Kerry "flip-flopping" on Iraq, yet Trump flip-flops on everything!
Is Trump a deal maker? No, obviously.
Tyg Rahof Idk if it's irony or karma for trump, since he made those statements before he became president.
I'm positive he doesn't give a damn.
I dunno, he may've made a crossroads deal to become rich/famous/powerful. It's kinda the only logical explanation for his success.
His crooked lawyers did, and still doing his work for him....
Tyg Rahof made a deal with Stormy Daniels...
When he heard about the shutdown, Trump said: "If the government is closed, I don't have to this anymore, right? Sign me up!"
He probably thought Mueller's investigation would stop as well. It didn't.
Nailed it, Trump. The president is to blame.
I'm literally embarrassed and ashamed to be American.
Apophis I was there when we picked party delegates... That was the best we could do... Really!?!
Apophis you and me both!
It's a (relatively) low paying government job. Have you seen what CEO's make?
Apophis I'm Mexican-American and im also embarrassed to be an American so for now im just Mexican
Trump should be forced to watch these clips until his fragile ego cracks in half for good!
No one in the White House has the balls to do that. Even if they did, he would just fire them and threaten to sue the news organizations that produced those clips.
That would imply they are capable of feeling shame.
Ironically, a lot of the people here have such fragile egos that if anybody disagrees eith them, they'll screech and call them a nazi.
He watches all of this. None of this effects him. His excuse will still be "it's the Dems fault because they lost the election", and this will be his narrative of his entire presidency.
Jay Naylor is obviously not a WWII Nazi, just a useless tiki torch "nazi"
Trump makes me believe in karma. Everything he said about Obama is being said about himself.
Catherine Omondi And by himself.
So he was born in Kenya???
"A Bill of Love" Starring Stormy Daniels & Donny Tiny Hands
chasemebaby, great title! I'd still throw up watching it though.
The entire world is laughing at you America haha 😂😂
Dan M please remember easily more than half of America didn't vote for this Jackass. P.S. please help.
I wish I could join in on all the laughter, but I live in the United...no, wait... Divided States of America.
Unfortunately, I'm too busy feeling more n' more worried and heartbroken. 💔😢
Dan M well clearly your a person who would support trump filled with hate and cruelty. Way to be an ass.
Dan M we know I thought bush made us look bad but trump is on a whole new level of stupid
Katarina D clearly you voted for Trump cause calling people an "ass" is childish...
❤️ Seth
Do you know de way?
Press Hearty I’m sorry; I don’t know what you’re asking me. Lol
You have to learn de way my brudda.
Press Hearty that I do.
Well he's not right after all. I wouldn't say I'm laughing at you folks. I'm rather concerned and getting more and more worried every passing week. This guy will be our downfall. So could you just replace him silently with Sanders and act like nothing happened? K? Thx.
How. How do I share DNA with the people that support this man. I feel like I have more in common with trees than I do these broken humans that somehow see worth in this man.
LukeOfTroy sadly people with much less IQ then you think they have a problem with the rest of the world therefore they also think this imbecile can make America great again. The only problem here, to do that he's going to make the rest of the world his enemy, what's left of it anyway. Dump and the rest of his supporters needs to learn, just to get along. And stop supporting Israel that doesn't believe in Jesus.
LukeOfTroy. Oh poor boy, just wait. God has his hand on President Trump. And he's just getting started.
I 100% believe that. God is an asshole
LukeOfTroy. Ask God to show you who he is. If you're a real atheist than you have nothing to lose. Ask him.
If God really is revealing himself through Donald Trump, then God has already shown me who he is. And we are all losing a lot because of that man, atheist or not.
I believe in kindness, decency, compassion, cooperation, respect. Many of my Christian friends share those values with me. But as God is represented in the bible, I don't see his touch in any of those values. I am a real atheist because I do not believe that God exists, but those values still mean something to me, and I wouldn't sell out to that tyrant even if he was real, precisely because kindness, decency, compassion, co-operation, and respect are more than I'm willing to lose.
I don't begrudge you your religion. I dearly hope that you see those values in God, and that you believe you honor God by expressing those values, but I've spent a lot of on this subject, and I fundamentally don't understand how anyone could believe that. If I became convinced that the Bible was the word of God and that I had a moral responsibility to follow it, I would be an absolute monster, and I would lose everything.
I know government shutdowns, I have the best, most tremendous government shutdown you've ever seen, believe me! - Trump
Toad Jiang lol
Since 2016 doubled the size of government shutdowns!
Lol, you fools are gonna be wasting your time saying that for the next 7 years? Well, have fun with that. I wonder how many of you will figure out that it won't happen before then.
Phatnaru0002 Why do you and your ilk keep saying 7 years, you realize our Presidents get elected every four years right?
Yes, but there is little doubt in my mind that he will win re-election if the Democrats keep up at the pace they are now. I don't like Trump, but the Democrats being a horrible opposition is why he got elected, and they don't seem to have learned from any of their mistakes.
That Trump talking no so long ago is actually coherent... It really looks like some of dementia
Enric Grau you may be right
Enric Grau or bipolar
Enric Grau If that's true, we're all making fun of someone with a mental disease...
I've been doing this thing where I complete some work while watching a long list of A Closer Look. I thought months back I had watched all of them. I really tried to look for more, but I couldn't find any. Now all of a sudden all these old ones popped up. Bless the YT algorithm.
Same here. I know I saw all of these.
So much Craziness forgotten 😂
Late Night with Seth Meyers is an EPIC show!!! Thanks for all of you for what you do!
Is it just me or does it seem like just about every other month our Government runs out of money?
No because I seem to recall it a couple years ago what a mess it was because when the Senate was controlled by Democrats they didn't pass a budget between 2009 until 2013 and now digging deeper apparently we don't really pass budgets or appropriations anymore but continuing resolutions...which is apparently like living from Credit Card to Credit Card maxing them all out and just hoping you can find a way to not pay for the last credit card or at least just enough so the bank doesn't take everything
Congress has been at times, going on for years without passing a budget. So they fill in stop gap appropriations bills. Also they have an artificial spending cap that they just won't adhere too.
Tadicuslegion78 you talking about the 2009 shutdown? it was republicans because of ObamaCare
Watching this from England, I am totally amazed that one of the richest, largest countries in the world runs its government in such a shambolic, amateurish way. No wonder you hate Washington.
Been like this for a long time now. Republicans won't pass a long term bill.
*Greetings from Germany
Press Hearty wish I was there instead of sh!thole America.
Press Hearty Hello from New Jersey!
Greetings New Jersey!
Press Hearty Hello Germany, Chicago here, I'm about to try a Flensburger Dunkel imported from your country.
Greetings from Texas
Can Obama come back? This Year was a great joke guys. Can the joke end it isnt funny anymore... Can someone jump out and yell "This was a prank bro" it's time we have a real leader.
Jarid Gaming You mean Obama who doesn't care about Due Process? Ignored Drone Killings?
You referring to the AL-Qaida American terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki assassinated by a targeted Drone Strike? So you believe only non-american terrorist should be assassinated?
More like 30% or probably less by now since Trump signed that GOP budget giving the billionaires a tax break of 600 million and cancelling aid to seniors, School lunch programs etc. to help pay for it.
Jarid Gaming We will be fondly looking back at this year wondering how it got worse.
Perhaps the fact that 25 million people had health insurance that had never had it before. Perhaps because 23 million new jobs created perhaps all the laws the GOP is cancelling because Obama created them like prevention of mentally ill from buying guns or the fact only 1 of 2 Presidents that didn't increase national debt, or cut the deficit in 1/2 and had the lowest government growth since Eisenhower. Perhaps because of what he didn't do! like cancel social programs like school meals, aid to elderly, cancel law protecting seniors in nursing homes.
I need a lie down in a darkened room - I've just agreed with several things something Trump said : "the whole world is laughing at us," "you can be in Hawaii (or Florida) playing golf when there's a deal to be made" and "the president is to blame for a government shut down".
Last time I was this early, a black man was the President.
Can we go back to that time again?
John Smith Good times. Good times.
John Smith your not alone, those were the good times!🤗
White President, Black Heart.
TheKaiTetley *no heart.
i wish i could lock trump on a chair and force him to watch every statement he mad in the past. Twice.
Wouldn't help. He doesn't even have the mental capacity to understand the things that come out of his own mouth.
I haven't seen that past interview. Gold. Pure gold.
The world was laughing but not anymore. Our hearts and prayers go out to those that are fighting for the less privileged. It is just sad to see such a great nation fall so far in 1 year.
Dale Berning No, we're actually still laughing. As a coping mechanism yes, but how can you not laugh, especially at the retarded who still defend him?
Inauguration anniversary????? I thought it was the anniversary of the women’s march... and nothing else significant happened that weekend. And even if something did happen I’m sure the crowd was embarrassingly small.... like almost half the size of an Obama inauguration crowd (hypothetically speaking of course)
Also, side note: how has it only been one year? Did someone switch us to dog years without letting us know cuz I feel like it’s been at least 7 years
J C lmao, I have short term memory loss and it's kinda amazing how much I'm retaining this year. Experience + strong emotion = long term memory. Sucks too, I suppose.
it'll be 7 more till he's out
How can anyone still stand with Trump?
Usually those who are brainwashed, cannot think for themselves and has an aversion to facts
To be fair, while I certainly do not like him, there seems to be aspects to him that people use as reasons why Trump = cool, such as the growing economy (which may have stopped due to this) and sinking unemployment... although I think those aspects were started by Obama and Trump somehow kept it going (until now, maybe).
Then again, this guy doesn't have many good aspects to him (at least, to me he doesn't), so it's likely they're taking every victory they can get. However, this is just how I see the whole situation.
Lots of denial, fear, and miseducation.
Coz by now it’s a cult. The cult of trump.
It's a cult.
"The whole world is looking at us and laughing at us." D. Trump
Thank God the gov shut down. Better to not have it running at all, than to have Trump in charge.
i love Seth, Stephen & Trevor, bringing the news in a comic fashion.. and Trump just makes it so easy for them lol
Kevin Bell Don’t forget about Jordan.
Hello, my name is NINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
wait, wrong channel.
"I actually think the President would be blamed". yes mr. trump, YOU are to blame.
How come some people support him when he says something and does the opposite?
I have a better picture now thanks for the reply . And I believe the USA will make it through this because it's a great country plus it has top notch brains in almost every field, so they will figure this mess out. I wish America nothing but the best, and all countries.
I think it’s adverse psychology employed by his staff. He cobbled together a bunch of pathological liars infested by demons and they are hard at work
Love from France~ ! ♡´･ᴗ･`♡
Adelina Shala bonsoir..
Ah nan mais là c'est prodigieux, la saison 2 de Trumpmerica promet d'être passionante....(et j'adore Seth, Noah et Colbert 😍😍) Ravie de voir que je suis pas la seule~ 😂
Love from New York, your food is so much better...
Gotta agree with that~ I've tasted american croissants before and I think died a little. 😂
There's no paper on his desk! They really think we're like his supporters and are that gullible and stupid..
Yes, we are laughing. Sorry my american friends.
Don't worry all of us over here our laughing and rolling our eyes too!
I'm wondering, what would happen if some reporter put Trump on the spot, like: President Trump, I have a video of you saying this and this, can you see the similarities? Didn't you say this and you are doing exactly that? Can you tell me what's going on?.
My question should be, why haven't no one done that yet! Should be fun seeing Trump trying to get out of that one!
Very good question. They could, and definitely should, put him on the spot every chance they get. The american press is pretty useless, Trump gets a harder grilling when he faces foreign press.
Trump would only appears on Fox News (aka: Fake News Network) that only asks him soft irrelevant questions and tells him what a great president he is! Nowadays, he very seldom appears on any news station at all since every time he opens his mouth he implicates himself in a lie or worse in a crime! So he does his talking in campaign-style rallies where no one can ask him any questions at all!
That reporter would be too scared of being shot and having the murder declared 'Fake News'.
It takes a lot of courage to stand up to a creature with 60 million gibbering mouths.
If Trump could time travel and meet himself in the past, he could learn a lot.
Joshua Perkings he'd just do himself
Joshua Perkings Idk if it's irony or karma for trump, since he made those statements before he became president.
"Trump" and "learn" are two words that don't go together.
Yeah, he’d have sex with himself OR...
Future Trump: “I want to have sex with your daughter.”
Past Trump: “No, you can’t have sex with MY daughter. She’s your daughter too.”
Future Trump: “Ha! You said she was your daughter first!”
A little FYI for the USA ... we've been laughing at you guys for over a year now,
So when people are really suffering, you choose to laugh at them? That doesn't seem very nice.
Laugh at trump and his 35% of supporters. The rest of us want him gone
Go back to your shithole
Peter Piper This is more like a video of some wannabe martial arts guy who thinks he's being really cool with a pair of numchucks whacking himself in the nuts with them. Sure, it looks painful as hell and you shouldn't laugh at his suffering, but deep down you know he deserved it.
@Peter Piper You mean suffering from the mess you yourselves have created?
Half rhe town in Nova Scotia...
Awesome!!!!!!
Lol Seth’s material writes itself
I guess these recordings are fake news too...right?! Lol
Lol yep, or Trumptards will try to steer the debate to Hillary, or Obama.
Cameron Lorna Yep
Trump has accomplished nothing of any value.
Apophis so are you trying to troll someone here or fishing for likes? I see that you have a whole handful of inflammatory one-liners in just this comment section. I mean, they are in-line with the video premise (although not comedic), but it seems strange that you would break up a video response into so many little pieces that all amount to essentially the same thing.
What’s your game?
#laughingattrump all the way from Singapore
It's really more cringing than laughing at this point, but yeah, you get the idea...
Just brought up Trump saying the president needs to be blamed for a shutdown with a Trump supporter. They justified it by saying, "well Trump isn't a politician so I think it's okay for him to say that." They can justify anything he says. They justify his hypocrisy by saying he isn't a politician. He..... can...... do..... no...... wrong.
I had a similar thing happen to me, I provided the same quote to a Trump supporter, and he responded with:
"A quote from 5 years ago doesn’t bear on the bizarre nature of why the shutdown is happening now"
Oh, so five years ago Trump was right, but now it's different, because ... reasons.
Russell, You should tell them Trump isn't a politician, he is a career con artist, which is the reason why he has no business being president!
How. Just HOW can Trump always have an equal and opposite quote for EVERYTHING? He is the Issac Newton of blaming.
This is gold!! “Deals come out of my ears” ...
I was actually at the march where the little girl made her own sign here in Kalamazoo! Awesome.
I desperately want a reporter to ask Trump what DACA stands for. I'll admit that if someone came up to me on the street and asked me, I wouldn't know. Then again, I'm not PRESIDENT OF THE EFFING UNITED STATES!
David Hill ...easy! Da Affordable Care Act!
Not only that, but he thinks the Dreamers are different from DACA.
There was also some other nitwit Republican claiming that the Dreamers include criminals. Young immigrants can't be eligible for DACA if they've got any criminal record. The nitwit was obviously confusing DACA with the Republican party, which doesn't worry about past criminal activity.
Make this Trump administration, they can't even pull off photo-ops with making it obvious that it's a photo-op.
I'm Canadian.
There was THOUSANDS marching in Toronto. Why is there some story talking about some Nova Scotia town?
Yeah have been waiting for this
I love the "equal and opposite Trump quote" rule of physics.
Please god, make sure DT is watching! someone has got to cut together all those soundbites
Thank you Seth!
damn I missed closer look for last few days...
Why are peoples blaming trump....you can't blame a child when he cant make an adult decision.
Thi Henry dude he's not a child he just acts like one.
Has anyone ever noticed that Trump looks like the missing link between humans and the Murlocks from The Time Machine?
Heather Hutton Looking at Eric Trump, that makes sense.
trump is definitely missing something... a brain.
Heather Hutton. Nice!
My god, you’re right! 🤯
Heather, yes, the *Morlocks* in more ways than one. They were illiterate and only communicated in grunts as well.
A Closer Look is the best segment on the internet :) Boosts my sarcasm mood every time.
Amazing work, seth!
/r/TrumpCriticizesTrump
The best deal Trump ever made was paying someone to write the Art of the Deal so that people would think he was good at deals.
One of the best Meyers show!
Seth has been killing it for quite some time but he really stepped up since the last week's - bring it on!
This is poetic JUSTICE! That the government shuts down at his one year anniversary... The universe is talking to you Donny... you're a horrible President.
I would bet anything Trump would deny what he said back then even if they showed him the tape we just saw. He would probably say it's not him on the video or that it's a fake video.
always a good show...
Seth, you’re the best!
