DemDaily: A Little Humor!
March 16, 2018
A little humor to remind us to laugh!
Stephen Colbert
"In addition to Rex Tillerson, Gary Cohn and Hope Hicks, we also learned that Trump's personal assistant was just fired - although he was actually escorted from the White House on Monday. I assume he wanted to beat the rush."
Conan O'Brien
"President Trump fired his secretary of state, Rex Tillerson, on Twitter. It makes sense when you consider that Trump hired Tillerson on Tinder."
"60 Minutes just interviewed Betsy DeVos and they're about to interview Stormy Daniels. That's right, two women equally qualified to be education secretary."
Jimmy Fallon
"Trump has been telling people that he fired Rex Tillerson all by himself. Trump brags about firing people the same way a toddler brags about using the bathroom alone for the first time."
"I heard that Trump wants to fire his secretary of veterans affairs. Trump said he might do the job himself, since he's a veteran of several affairs."
Seth Meyers
"President Trump tweeted last night, THE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE HAS FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF COLLUSION OR COORDINATION BETWEEN THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND RUSSIA,' and then he tweeted, 'CAN SOMEONE HELP ME TURN OFF THE CAPS LOCK BUTton oh there it is never mind.'"
"President Trump this morning cited differences of opinions on the Iran nuclear deal as motivation for firing Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. You see, Tillerson thinks the Iran nuclear deal is necessary for global stability. While Trump thinks Iran is Iraq."
On Mueller's Investigation: "Look, I know you have to be thorough, but at this rate, by the time you're done our only ally will be Luxembourg, Eric will be secretary of state and it'll be illegal for me to make jokes about any of it. When someone is drowning, you throw them a life preserver, you don't throw them a nine-part DVD series on the history of swimming."
James Corden
On firing of Rex Tillerson: I thought Tillerson got fired months ago. If you don't know who Rex Tillerson is, he's the old, rich white guy that worked for Trump. No, not that one, the other one. No, not that one either.
"Elon Musk has announced that his company, SpaceX, will be ready to fly an unmanned rocket to Mars and back by 2019, and shortly thereafter, they'll be able to send people there to colonize the planet. You know, just in case you-know-who is re-elected tothe you-know-what."
On the anti-gun violence student walkout: "Politicians should know if they turn their backs on these students, they could face punishment of their own. You know, like [having to] get a real job after the next election."
Samantha Bee
"Just two years ago, Trump won this district by 20 points. Two years before that, Democrats didn't even bother running an opponent against the Republican incumbent. You know, I'm really enjoying this radical new Democratic strategy called 'trying.'"
Jimmy Kimmel
On Stormy Daniels' fundraising page: "She's trying to raise money to pay for her legal fees, so she launched a fund-raising page on a website called CrowdJustice.com, so now you can give money to a porn star - just like the president of the United States."
On the Republican loss in Pennsylvania special election: "The White House is not saying he lost - it's 'essentially a tie.' But it's not a tie, it's a loss. If it was a tie, it'd be Scotch-taped to Donald Trump's shirt and manufactured in China."
Have a good weekend!
