The chess joke was... masterful. LOL
0:45, that's an insult to 5th and 6th graders...
Eckhart of the Cygnus Knights yes indeed!
Well Trump has the mentality of a 5th or 6th grader.
Class action law suit from every 5th and 6th grader is in the works!
+I'm Too Stoned to Come Up With a Username No, Trump does NOT have the mentality of a 5th or 6th grader. By the age of 10, normal children can grasp the concepts of morality, ethics, good, bad. More importantly, these concepts guide the actions and choices of these children. Trump does not understand morality or ethics.
5th graders know more than the President does.
The last 48 hours have just amped this circus up a notch. And I already thought it couldn't get stranger!
Seth is back and he's on 🔥🔥🔥 I'm lovin' it🙂
So is Trump every day at 6:30 with his big Mac in bed...bah da bah bah bah I'm tweetin' it!🎶
I'm actually eating McDonald's right now
I've been waiting for Closer look to come back for weeks now.
Trump is in considerably worse shape than he was before Seth went on vacation... he's returned with the benefit of lots of new material... I'd be honored if some fellow concerned citizens would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of 80s/90s classic songs on my channel. Covers include Sting, Prince, George Michael, Phil Collins, the Verve, Counting Crows, Tom Petty, Billy Joel, Earth Wind & Fire, plus a couple of '010s classics from Bruno Mars and Coldplay. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and peace.
Love how Seth keeps coming back to that Melania name joke.
You are referring about Melanin, right?
Pretty sure he meant Melanin.
Melanka or Ivania
Excellent writing staff 👏
@@noonav 🤣🤣
Seriously- his behavior in response to negative coverage just confirms the resports.
Jamilynn Robins What baffles me is how even after all this his base still wants to scream about Hilary, Obama, Bill, Bush, and anyone else they can think of. It's quite telling not just of Trump but his base-they're all babies.
No, his actions and words confirm the reports. His response to the reports simply form part of the massive ball orange bouncy-ball of corruption.
Man...I love Trevor and Colbert but I’m always the most excited to see This guy’s stuff
Mesothelioma! God, I love Seth!! 😂
That was probably the best name he broke out in this segment.
@@chetthehoss Melanoma cracked me up too🤣
Made me laugh out loud
somehow read this comment just as he got to that joke XD
Hhhhhhh 😂 😆 😝 🤣.... I’m dead.
I am more disgusted and angered by the surrounding Republican leadership, selling our country out for a Supreme Court position that should have been the prior Presidents! May God have mercy on all of us
eleanor charlton wasn’t it god that put us in this position in the first place?
@@zoidlrrr4633 it was Bernie not getting the nomination that led to this. If Bernie would have gotten the nomination he would be president.
@@paulschuckman6604 as good as bernie would have been, GOP is doing a good job demonizing his message. US at large is not ready for him.
No If Obama had his final pick it would be an unprecedented move, furthermore you cannot complain against powers to which the previous democrat run government put into place, this is purely the democrats fault as they never expected trump, this is purely and solely your party's fault
Inactive petition of prayer won't cut it against this kind of evil!
Gee, I don't know why people are questioning this adminustration...looks like a well-oiled machine to me. Just like the Hindinburg, pre-Lakehurst, NJ.
Yeah that was another Nazi gas bag that went up in flames.
Nice!
Fucking hilarious and so spot on
And, what could possibly go wrong with Capt. Titanic at the wheel?
somebody stop the ride, I want to get off . . . .
I never wanted to get on in the first place.
Spiral Jumper yea I’m getting sick from this ride
@onlyfacts need a hug
+onlyfacts Hey another empty channel with a big mouth. Troll harder fuckwit.
That's how I'm feeling. At first it was really fun, but it's been going so long that now all the twists and turns are just making me want to vomit.
Is all this really suprising?
By now someone could tell me that the secretary of defense has to reenact
international strategy with sock puppets for him to understand and all i would say is "Yeah .. seems plausible"
And the source of "THAT" leaked information is still, to this day, sought out by Trump...
Boo.
_"I have _*_a_*_ secretary. I have _*_two, three_*_ secretaries."_ Can't count to 3 but knows the *_best words._* Sounds legit. 6:16
Also, he seems pretty unclear as to exactly how many secretaries he has... Very legit.
It is like Trump is trying to brag... _I have more secretaries than you._
That is EXACTLY what it sounds like - pretty typical of him.
Not to mention "secretary" is an old-fashioned term. He probably says "stewardess" too.
He can't tell the difference between would and wouldn't !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can't help but wonder if Lindsay Graham is being blackmailed. He was one of Trump's fiercest critics, and thought Trump was a "kook". Now they're best buds who golf together. I''m not buying the bromance.
It's all about that base.
Not sure if it's the Kremlin or the Enquirer or Trump that's got stuff on the rethugs, but someone has something. It feels like the fear of death though. So mob.
Diane IsMyName - since Citizens United case legalized money laundering and bribery in politics, the righ wing-nuts have sold themselves to the highest bidders. Grover Norquist has been holding GOP POLS hostage for years, and now it's even easier because foreign and domestic rich individuals or corporations can donate unlimited amounts of dark money through PACS. This administration is a living, breathing example of a kleptocracy of crony capitalists, except that there's more than the usual amount of foreign government participation thanks to Comrade Donnie's treasonous behavior.
Diane IsMyName I'm buying it on Lindsey's part but I don't think Trump is gay.
They're very flexible..
On and on we go!
Look, if one person says it, it may not be true. If a second claims the same, you still have a chance that it may not be true. But literally dozens of people are talking crazy town.
He's a sick, demented, immoral, lying piece of crap. Get him out of there! Get that crazy family out!!
Holy Hell!
Its a Faustian bargain and it will come back to haunt them.
You clearly know nothing about how wingnut welfare works. All of these aides and staff members will land on their feet right next to the indicted war criminals from the Bush 43 administration.
I was speaking more to the GOP in general then any one person in particular.
God I wish this could all be solved with Ted Cruz having a fiddle-off against the devil.
Not soon enough.
Whose Line prompt: "World's worst criminals being caught in the act."
Trump waves at the security camera as he eats pieces of paper.
Can this period in history be written invisibke ink?
Were you talking about Barry Santoro that fake president
Lindalee Law Do you think you Americans will get to the "history" part?
I only liked this comment because you acknowledged that Whose Line exists, practically in any scenario
@Eric Burkheimer I thought that'd be a Ryan Stiles thing...
The internet is so fun. Sen. Graham (2016) vs Sen. Graham (2018) ......wow
This is one of the best from Seth Meyers~!
Lol. Yessssss. I thought so too. And those Melania jokes were perfect!😂😂
Let's just wait for the next elected president to decide the next judge......that only seems fair
We already tried that. Merrick Garland?
@@johnnafunkhouser5999 make ALL gerrymandering illegal.
Recind Citizens United. Then we'll have a chance.
@@georgeb.wolffsohn30 Amen to that
The problem with political jokes is often they are elected!
Ronnie Caron OMG! Comment of the day! 🥇
Spot on
Thank both of you. Feel free to use it .
I was at dinner and someone said '"before the election, I thought Trump was a joke" and that just rolled off my tongue!
The table gave me a standing ovation. The waiter brought me a drink on the house.
Well done.
Get this guy a job as a writer for one of these comedy shows!
"melanoma" LOL classic!
Was the Op-ed delivered on high end parchment, smelling faintly of peach blossoms, written in a refined handwriting script, and delivered by a woman in a full 'Southern Bell' dress and sun hat?
Then yeah.. it was Graham.
The ending line killed it for me. I laughed out loud. :)
Stealing letters or papers from the president who doesn’t read is easy. Try stealing his Diet Coke, KFC, McDonald’s, Skittles, chocolate cake, extra scoop of ice cream, or from his stash of Ivanka’s underwear, and he’ll notice! For sure! 😁
Space-Cadet David 'Spanky Bonespurs' Dennison : Good one! 😂
😌👌
How bout' stealing a paper Trump ate?
Dammit. Now I have this image of junior donnie cutting the crotches out of all ivankas panties so daddy donnie could put one pair on each leg and walk around the White House all night free as a bird.
And I was already starting to vomit at all the other absurd things going on in the White House.
twinodoom : It was the hamburger wrapper.
I can't keep track of all the old white guys
Old White Guys Running/Ruining Your Country. VOTENovember2018 to Strip the GOP OUT of CONgress, House and Senate, BOTH!! Born in the Year 2000? YOU CAN VOTENovember2018 LiKe YouR LiFe DePenDs ON IT. BeCause IT DOES!
You mean the swamp that Trump promised to drain? /s
I give them numbers, numbers that will come in handy with the new fashion coming their way.
It's not so much that they all look alike, it's just that there's so many of them...
I do know that they all love to watch Fox News.
Seth, it's been comforting having you back this week!
Laughing is important in these crazy political times.
Seth is so wonderful, sharing things to laugh about in a grim time.
Just a matter of time before Trump is on the White House lawn yelling at the clouds.
Or streaking across the lawn . . . Butt naked
@@misstracy9296 ok. I didn't need that image in my head.
or having a huge crying meltdown over a big platter of clams, like most coke heads end up doing. it's really weird. Can't Wait For The MeltDown!!
And throwing rocks at the birds.
@@shawnjohnson9763 okay I'M sorry and LMAO at the same time lol
Seth is the spiritual successor to Jon Stewart.
😂 not even close
Whatever you're smoking must be good
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 hell no!
that's Colbert
No
I’m so glad I’m not the only who thinks that
A Closer Look keeps getting better and better with each edition. This one was gold.
Seth, you really nailed it for this segment! I love how this bit began with making fun of how tomato face couldnt remember his own wife's name and used that as a gag to punctuate all his jokes/impersonations for the segment. Impersonations, scenarios/reactions, irony, and even the graphics were on point!!
Whoever your new hire is, or whatever the new routine your writers have, or if you gave Amber more control, whatever it is, keep it up!!
Great closer look segment Seth! You never disappoint!
A sixteen year old working at Walmart could do a better job then trump.
At least the sixteen year old would listen to input and be capable of adapting and changing on the job...
Genna Tuelz
MAGA - Morons Are Governing America.
Obama inherited the Great Recession, record deficits and two unwinnable wars, caused by the previous Republican POTUS. Under Obama the economy grew, deficit and unemployment fell, the market hit record numbers.
Trump only gave himself a tax cut and started a bunch of trade wars at the same time.
The shocking thing is that your point is debatable. I honestly have to ask myself, _would_ a sixteen year old Walmart employee do a better job than Trump? And I do not know.
While trump working at walmart will lead walmart to financial ruin
Only because they deal with people...
Your smirk in the first ten seconds says everything hahaha
This is utterly brilliant. Bravo, Seth!
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆👀eyeballs & 👂🏽👂🏽earholes 😆😆😆😆😆😆👍🏽
Vast majority of the GOP are in need of soul-transplants.
Murray Webb you can’t transplant something you never had, but I agree with your point
But their constant pining shows what plant souls they have, so I pray they go to the mill just to be habbachie firewood!
Hour late , dollar short
I'm dead Seth! This one was really funny.
6:50 “... Mesothelioma...” the best segment ever 😂 😆 😝 🤣. We miss u Seth.
We have an amoral president that cares only about money an believes himself above the law, not to mention the most corrupt. But the Republican Party are 100% worsts, they care only about their pockets. They are disgusting.
Talk about a deal with the devil.
Seth, I would've stood up and clapped, well done!
This segment was absolutely pitch-perfect.
"You should've called my secret secretary"
"How do you get a hold of her?"
"If I told you it wouldn't be secret, would it?"
Jay Zenitram, funny, but in all fairness if you google "trump personal secretary" Madeleine Westerhout comes up. I doubt that you or I would be connected if we called the White House and asked for her. But Bob Woodward probably would have been. I assume Woodward didn't try because he assumed it would be futile. Hence the process of going through Conway and others, who _might_ have convinced Trump to go on the record.
Oh, with the up coming lawsuit, it's No secret how he got a hold of her!
Seth for 2020!!!
Rod Serling must be so proud... 18 months and I still can't get his TV soundtrack out of my head!
Great Update! I laughed way too hard at this. Thank you
It seem like the GOP is a like real life party of villains.
Ahhh Seth I count down the minutes till u upload ur next monologue!
You need another hobby
I work full time whilst also studying for my second degree...I don't need a hobby! What I need is 5 minutes to relax and laugh...enter Seth!
“Melanoma???????” 😂 It’s great, Seth. I love it!
Welcome back Seth... I love you!!
The criminals broke the Joker out of Arkham and they think they can control him.
And so soon after was a serin gas attack, now that's fucked up!
Donald Trump has at least early stage Alzheimers.
Symptom 1~ Difficulty with daily, familiar tasks
Symptom 2~ Difficulty with planning/solving problems
Symptom 3~ Confusion with Time and Place(we've seen him randomly wander around and have to be guided by the SS before)
Symptom 4~ Problems with words in speaking and writing
Symptom 5~ Misplacing things easily
Symptom 6~ Decreasing/worsening judgement
Symptom 7~ Worsening emotional state, often having paranoid suspicion of people such as family members or close friends
Nope! FULL BLOWN with self induced DEMENTIA from lying himself into a fictional world mental state!! 😠
Thank you Seth and staff....you continue to be real about what is going on which is highly distressing but you make me laugh...which makes our current life a bit bearable...aw duck...Graham has turned into sum1 who is not recognizable...
My heart hurts...the republicans who I liked at some point have lost their way...it was at 1 point in the last 30 years where there was democrats against republicans...its now a fight for morality....this is not MY America......................my heart lies with what is right...and as a person who grew up with abuse in a 3rd world country...I have alot to say...my point is if in a world which is really ugly because of corruption and the lack of caring about...People...wtf...the 1st Lady of the United States is against bullying...cyberbullying.
..I don't buy it......this is my opinion....she chose this platform to use it when needed.....I really liked her at the beginning of the administration...I defended her so much...but, no more....she acts like a dictators wife......I no longer buy what you r selling.......
I really enjoy these. Keep them coming
The chess bit!😄
"Horsey man to black square."
"Um, Mr. President, it's called a Knight, it can't go there, and you're in check."
"Oh, I never write checks. I just pretend I'm too rich to care and then my lawyers pay you off."
Last time I was this early, I wasn't building a nuclear bunker in my basement.
Nylak Otter last time I was this early, I was already done building a nuclear bunker in my basement.
That's right, you still aren't.
Spare yourself that work. Trump negotiated. He is able and willing to dismantle himself.
@@Dear_Mr._Isaiah_Deringer Trump agreed to dismantle himself? Since when?
@@eater999 I am, actually! We live in tornado central and have a storm bunker that we're expanding and fortifying anyway. Also quite convenient for safe, locked storage of firearms, generators and staples.
Not only should the President be stopped but the all the persons seated to the Supreme Court under his watch should be taken off and everything start fresh.
The constant and evolving plays on the misspelling of his own wife's name are why I appreciate the writers on Late Night, including Seth. They're at the top of their game and constantly put out delightfully funny and clever bits.
I think Karen Pence wrote the article in the Times....her or the rabbit!!! Lol!
what's shocking isn't that trump is what he is-
it's that so many people respect what he is.
I honestly cannot wrap my head around how so many people like and support him. I just don't fucking get it. I could at least understand why people liked Mitt Romney, or Bush Jr., or any other politician, but Trump is actually fucking crazy.
Thanks again Seth
It's scary how many of these segments have amassed in my "favorites" playlist the last few years lol
this is all so absolutely absurdly mind boggling! Like, every - single - day I'm astonished but also equally lethargic so it somehow balances out... like if a chucky/Jason crossover movie were made and we needed to pick a protagonist. "Lethargically astonished"
Re Lindsey Graham; IS HYPOCRISY DEAD YET 🤔🤔🤔
That chess game picture was shopped. That hand is too large to be Trump's.
Thanks for your work!
So glad you're back! You are not allowed to go on vacation again until this nonsense is over.
Lindsay Graham has flipped. So what was he offered to lose the integrity he had?
Republicans are like the Jurassic World scientists who made the Indominus Rex. They're well aware of the danger, and they're keeping "contained" for now, but they still wanna keep him around because he's good for their legislative agenda.
Thing is, in the movie, the I-Rex eventually broke out.
Course, Trump isn't really as smart as the I-Rex so, who knows, maybe we're safe.
I'm watching this for the third time and it cracks me up EVERY time!!
Great call backs!!!
Liar liar, pants on fire.
President Peek-a-boo and his lacking power of object permanence to the rescue!
This is too much WINNING for one comment. Your internet privilege is revoked young man! Dumb it down a bit ;)
Now that I think about it, Putin HAS got him saying "DA DA DA!"a lot...
I wonder how many South Carolina Republicans are eager to primary Graham out of office for the obvious flip flopper that he is!
Love you Seth.
Who knows where we are after Trump’s era ended.
An Overkill of damage control....
kyletat The country will be bankrupt and President Lisa Simpson will have quite the task
What will happen after Trump's era?
You'll have another president and he or she will have exactly the same amount of power as your current president.
You will continue to believe that the president, somehow, controls everything even though that's not how your government works.
You won't look any deeper into the state of your political system and you'll either cheer or boo based solely on what shows like this tell you to do. Nothing will change, the same influencial people will continue to run your country for their own gain and you will continue to be one of millions of 'resources' screaming into the void.
In desperate need of decades of work, just to get back to how things were in 1653 ADe
Oh yeah
Best one yet!
Ty Seth¡ keep up the good work
But remember TRUMP DOESNT have papers on his desk
Now we know why.
Because both KFC and Mc D's were closed at the time
Mesothelioma ha!
They really missed a great joke opportunity by using the footage of trump with his desk completely empty... Lol
That's so fun to watch this in 2020. I miss these times so much.
This might sound strange but I swear late night talk show hosts like Seth have been better journalists.....than actual journalists.
Although their are actual journalists who are investigating and writing about a lot of this. It's just that it's hard to keep up with all of it and you do need to actually pick up a newspaper or news magazine or pay for it online and read the articles. So many people don't bother to that.
@@GoGreen1977
It's true. But they do a pretty good job on the late night shows. Once in a while they'll sacrifice some info for the sake of a better joke. If I can, I'll read several news sites on something like Flipboard, find out what's happening, then get the late night take. But if I'm too busy, I can usually get filled in pretty well by Seth, Colbert, Noah, Oliver, etc. And then try to read about it from at least one actual news source later.
Vote Vote Vote Vote... If you want this to stop go vote!
OMG House of Tards season 2 is shaping up to be the best yet. Cant wait for seasons 3 and 4.
Thanks Seth; as always A Closer look was insightful, truthful, beautifully written and funny.
At this point, the jokes write themselves. The late night hosts and their writers just have to rearrange them.
A true American hero would just slip a letter of resignation on to trumps desk
Thumbs up for the melanoma jokes alone!
Melanoma? I just about fell off the couch laughing! :)
We Americans are living through the most dangerous period in our country's history. The nuclear button is literally in the hands of a madman. I know that you realize this, but just making jokes about it is Not helping. Time for you, Seth, to get out from behind your desk and actually do something meaningful. Jokes won't save us.
so get up off your pile of fart infused pizza boxes in your mom's basement and do something!! get 18 year olds to register to vote, vote out the RepubliCUNTS when you do vote, support local efforts to oust Putin's Payroll Participants, defy MAGA at every turn, bitching at a television personality is doing even less than telling jokes that help people cope with the hideous situation
COLONIZATION 😱😱😱😱😱
Genna Tuelz - MAGA - Mueller Ain't Going Away
MAGA - Morons Always Get Arrested
MAGA - Misogynists Are Great Assh*les
Marc Love Do you think Seth would order an Italian made rifle?
Gregory Timmons, Haha... Actually, I would recommend something a little more accurate and reliable.
Not true.My son is in 5th grade and is intelectually far superior than Trump.I wish that was a joke...It's not.
See how much smarter newer generations are from much, much older one's?
Thank god for that.The children are literally our future lol.
This whole drama surrounding your administration is so fun to watch from a safe distance. Thanks for the chuckles USA
"Of course you don't need a book to know that. You just need eyeballs and ear holes." 😆😂😩
this is a 9 minute video, it was uploaded 5 minutes ago, you people and your 132 comments were made before you watched this video in it's entirety! lol
So?
I still say first lady Montana is hot...and I believe that first lady Mea Culpa will be best one we ever had...so you go, Madonna...and prove to the world that you--Melanoma, will help make America great again! Bigly.
@7:25 Lindsy Graham CLEARLY sold his soul. I hope it was worth it Lindsy
You said Melania's name wrong so many times it took me a minute to actually remember it!
