DeSantis spent $4,200 per vote in Iowa. He was polling at 30% before officially entering the race and he finished at 20%. He spent a massive amount of money just to lose a third of his support. I kind of get what Nikki was saying about it being a two person race because she didn't put much of a focus on Iowa and still finished right behind Ron. Ron went all in and came up with a pair of twos.
I wondered if she meant two person as in her and DeSantis because she’s betting on Trump going to jail or being disqualified due to his legal troubles. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The closest I have been to a judge is watching Law & Order, Judge Judy, and The People's Court, and I can't imagine anyone even on those TV shows getting by with talking to the judge like that.
Alina is just 39 and already on her second husband, who she married only a year after her divorce. This is not someone I would ever feel comfortable around.
Her new husband is (according to Wikipedia) a businessman in the "parking lot management industry". Considering they live in New Jersey, one wonders if that line of work is at all related to the "waste management industry". Bada bing.

Not unusual to those of us who live in the upper MidWest. We had the same weather & no one slowed down or stayed at home Iowans are used to it. They didn't go to the caucus because they didn't want to.
Very true. While I like Seth and the show, he's feeding into what made Trump a big player in the first place. I can hardly remember "A closer look" that wasn't about Trump. It's infuriating that Trump gets so much attention and also very repetitive in terms of jokes. The news channels also should stop reporting every detail for hours and hours. This is the real reason Trump is attending all the hearings and sessions in person, though he doesn't have to. It's keeping him in the news constantly.
@@schattentaenzerin You're certainly welcome to your opinion, but I disagree. Not reporting on Trump will not stop the rise of fascism any more than ignoring racism will make racism go away. It's odd to me how many people think that works. It's never worked. Seth and his team are responsible for creating jokes and finding humor in the absurd landscape that is our lives. The truth of the matter is Trump and the entire MAGA hoard are absurd, and we need to acknowledge that and dismantle it without fear. Staying silent does nothing but give cover for them to work in the shadows where they will do even more damage. The reality is A Closer Look is more than likely going to cover politics, and Trump is a major political story, no matter how repetitive you may find the jokes or Trump himself. If it frustrates you, you're welcome to skip the segment going forward, but what I do know is that ignoring Trump and not reporting the news about what's happening in our political sphere is *NOT* the answer. And if you hate that idea, well you're in for a long 2024 because you're going to hear about him a lot. News channels are a different beast because their job is to tell us what's going on, not to find humor in what's going on. And how they go about that is a fair criticism that deserves attention and adjustment. But we are not where we were in 2016. The shock regarding Trump's behavior has been replaced with disgust and contempt. Btw, I believe the last time A Closer Look wasn't about Trump it was likely about the GOP-controlled House, DeSantis, Greene, Boebert, Lindell or Giuliani. So just as absurd, but fairly easy to remember. I'm not sure why you can't recall.

Not only did the Judge scold Habba about doing a bad job, he had to show her the steps of how to introduce evidence and how to question E. Jean Carroll with that evidence.
Correction: it's not foreshadowing when it's quite literally already happened more than once. This is what we high school English teachers call "recidivism."
Trump has a life long need to be noticed. He doesn't care if it's positive recognition or negative recognition. To be ignored is the worst punishment he could ever receive. I'll be soooooooooooo happy when the day comes where I can pick up a paper and his name isn't in it.
I at first wondered why the judge didn't do more in response to a lawyer failing to uphold courtroom procedures.

Alina Habba must have been the person, who graduated last in her law school class. If she wasn't his type, considering the number of fatal mistakes she has made in each case where she represents Donald, he would have had someone fire her.

Correction: Cruz won the Iowa caucuses in 2016. There wasn’t a caucus in 2020 bc he was the incumbent. Cruz is the weakest man in the US which is difficult because he had to beat Lindsey Graham
What are you correcting? He said 2016. Edit: Is it the part saying Trump won Iowa twice instead of the three times that he claimed? Should it be just once?
@@cainau Yep the part where Seth says Trump won twice. Trump only won the Iowa caucus once, 2024. Technically I guess it is a correction for Seth and Trump 🌜 sorry for being such a 🤓
I mean, we all knew he'd win Ioa, but it still hurts a little, you know? It hurts to know that anyone in our so-called democracy would ever vote for the guy who did his damndest to destroy it. Yikes, America...
I didn't know he would win Ioa. (We're writing it this way because we're going to remove their status as a state and give it to Puerto Rico instead. We got an email about it yesterday. Check your spam folder. ) Also, it hurt a LOT to see him called the winner in that state.
Thanks, Seth, for clearly explaining what the Iowa GOP vote really means. I wish the mainstream media would follow your lead instead of always playing it like it means "well, he's the new president."

Habbas disbarment is an inevitability. She grossly broke ethic rules and basic rules of being an attorney to audition to personally tank his court cases. But she passed the goon loyalty test so she got the job.
I agree with everything but that she only had to pass the "goon test", because she definitely made him feel like he had a chance with attorney who looks like young Melania.
Ya know ur comment got me thinking....maybe Hablah-blah-blah is behaving like an incompetent low class moron because she thinks the only way off this Trump train IS through disbarment??? If so, give the girl what she wants!!! 😂
I had huge sad-sads and quite self destructive feels today and I have to say this pulled me out of it. Thank you for the laughs. Laughing heals, there's no denying that
TY Seth for pointing out the IA turnout. Another way of looking at it is - 1.56% of he poputlation of Iowa voted. Or less people than who go to a College Bowl Game.
Yeah you really have to dig into demographics to see the details. Either way he still secured a massive amount of delegates regardless of how many voted. People would have to be pretty deluded to not see Iowa as a massive victory for him.
'Even if you vote and then pass away, it's worth it': Trump urges Iowans to vote : Source: CNN In Indianola, Iowa, on Sunday, former President Trump encouraged Iowans to caucus even if they're 'sick as a dog', saying even if they vote and then pass away, "it's worth it."
To be fair (and I can't believe I'm saying this) to Nikki and Ron, this was actually a pretty embarrassing showing for Trump in Iowa. In 2020 he won the caucus with over 97% of the vote. This year, despite essentially running as the GOP incumbent, he scored just over 50%. Nearly half of Iowa Republicans didn't want him, as opposed to less than 3% 4 years ago. This actually suggests he's in a bit of trouble.
Thank you for explaining that to a non-US citizen. The rest of the work genuinely fears Trump becoming President again. Not because he is good, but for the chaos he will bring. The United States is far too important to become a crack pot nation. The Western world needs the USA’s leadership.
He also lost nearly 50% of the GOP vote! The republican voters are not as excited any more, and those who still vote aren't as charmed by Trump as they once were. Good news for our country, but still VOTE VOTE VOTE
Big tip for the people of the USA.... Get out and VOTE! VOTE like your future depends on it - because it is very clear that it does. You MIGHT think that the other guy is old or has memory problems (so they say) but possible memory problems or old has nothing on the disaster that Trump would bring you when Trump is almost as old and very clearly has memory problems - as just shown he has proven he can't remember stuff that should be easy to remember!

There wasn’t even a caucus, folks. Everybody’s saying it. Coldest fraud in the history of our country, that I can tell you. Everyone who wasn’t Trump won, and won by a lot. Three times.
Gotta go bigger: accept his endorsement, name him as your choice for Secretary for the Interior, and mention "his" plans for his cabinet position in every speaking engagement for the rest of the campaign. He wants to replace the eagle with the turkey as the national bird, he wants to put national parks over every highway so people can drive in the shade, he thinks interior means he's really just in charge of Kansas, just really go nuts. Make it clear you aren't sure you agree with his plans, but you've put your trust in him in this position, as long as he can overcome his "current legal entanglements, which you are sure he can". Tell me Dems wouldn't register to vote for that...
How I wish we had video from the courtroom to watch Alina Habba be told to sit down, her reply that she doesn't like to be talked to in that way, and the judge again telling her to sit down. I would never stop laughing at that.
Guess most lawyers want to keep their licenses and doesn't want to be a Trump hand puppet in court or make the right-wing media circuit espousing Donald's false talking points. 😉👍💙🇺🇸🕊
Since there is no statutory minimum for voter turnout, it doesn't matter how small the voter turnout was. Of those votes that got cast, he still got 51%.
They absolutely have a choice. They can resolutely say he does not represent them or their policies. But they won't which is what makes them dangerous and unworthy of power.
Habba is like a driver who passed her driving test at the 100th attempt. I wouldn't accept a lift from her or let her represent me in any level of legal work.
Not enough Melanin % or lack of $$$ for that to happen. Remember we are dealing with Trumpanzee's Circus of Bronze'a. If it was anyone else they would have been held in contempt weeks ago. But we are seeing a display of the two-tiered justice system some folks have been yelling about for decades. " Rules and laws for thee but none for the GOP"

The Boeing 737 MAX 9 is configurable so have an exit door at that specific row. Alaska Airlines ordered the airplane configuration without that exit door. But instead of building a new airplane frame, Boeing “plugged” the door and covered the plug with the interior wall.
Habba acts like her client had no way of controlling the date of the funeral. Either Melania scheduled the funeral during his trial so he could make a big deal about changing the trial, or she doesn't want him there.

At this point, I think even Donnie's lawyers want to see him suffer!

Together at last!!!
Alina Habba must have been the person, who graduated last in her law school class. If she wasn't his type, considering the number of fatal mistakes she has made in each case where she represents Donald, he would have had someone fire her. (Yes, Donald, we remember, despite playing a a tough business executive on a reality TV show, you had others deliver the bad news when you got rid of the competent people on your staff, while you played President.)🙄👍💙🇺🇸🕊 Vote blue. Make competence great again.
Closer look is back yes!
Remember when political candidates used to say "Vote for me because I'm the best person for the job"? Then it became "Vote for me because I'm not the other guy". Now it's apparently "Vote for me OR ELSE". That should really tell you something.
That's the Republican party's new motto....
I've got to say. As a conservative I've really been enjoying Seth Meyer's style when it comes to poking fun at the GOP. It doesn't seem at all biased or politically motivated it's just good clean humor. Way better than Jimmy Kimmel and miles ahead of Colbert .
It is impossible to embarrass people who have no shame or humility. It's just another day for them.
Exactly,well said.
Man nobody licks boots quite like Ted Cruz. That guy is unbelievable.

To quote trump from 2016. “How stupid are the people of Iowa?”
The answer is obvious.
Foreshadowing 😂
The answer is evident. Very, very stupid and immoral.🤨
Hard-core evidence can be very haunting. 😂
Thanks, seth, and you writers. YOu have been gifted.
CORRECTION: The wind chills were not merely below 30 but -30
I love how they voted in Iowa...Paper bags and Large popcorn buckets....Hold the extra butter..
KFC should've promoted an "Iowa Caucus " special- buy 1 bucket of chicken, get a free bucket to collect the votes!
Caucuses are just weird, the wrangling and arguing can get bad if you have a few people who just refuses to budge from their physical corners.
What .... no gingermints filled with illegal votes ... ??
Not a big primary, just the first.
You have to have humility though to feel embarrassed
His lawyers have NO shame and are unaware of what the word “embarrassment” means.

Correction: Cruz won the Iowa caucuses in 2016. There wasn’t a caucus in 2020 bc he was the incumbent. Cruz is the weakest man in the US which is difficult because he had to beat Lindsey Graham
What are you correcting? He said 2016.
Edit: Is it the part saying Trump won Iowa twice instead of the three times that he claimed? Should it be just once?
@@cainau Yep the part where Seth says Trump won twice. Trump only won the Iowa caucus once, 2024. Technically I guess it is a correction for Seth and Trump 🌜 sorry for being such a 🤓
Weren't the wind chill temperatures in Iowa actually 30 below, not "below 30"?
I mean, we all knew he'd win Ioa, but it still hurts a little, you know? It hurts to know that anyone in our so-called democracy would ever vote for the guy who did his damndest to destroy it. Yikes, America...
if it makes you feel any better it’s because the weather kept out everyone but the diehards
He was only voted for by Republican voters, that's not exactly a win.
Hurts to know there are so many ignorant racists in America, they are trumps base.
Crazy looking at all those old people voting FOR the Party that has publicly said they will get rid of Medicare and Social Security.
I didn't know he would win Ioa.
(We're writing it this way because we're going to remove their status as a state and give it to Puerto Rico instead. We got an email about it yesterday. Check your spam folder. )
Also, it hurt a LOT to see him called the winner in that state.
DeSantes is the epitome of why I will never return to FL, and I was born and (mostly) raised there.
Seth, no matter what, you can really make me laugh. That makes a difference in my life... especially with all the serious sh*t going on. ❤❤
Thanks, Seth, for clearly explaining what the Iowa GOP vote really means. I wish the mainstream media would follow your lead instead of always playing it like it means "well, he's the new president."
you weren't listening to the right places
It's one thing that Trump doesn't get courtroom decorum but it's bizarre if your attorney doesn't.
Funny that her extensive experience as a parking garage lawyer didn't prepare her for this. Weird.
She's a total wreck!😅
And her husband owns the parking garage company! So she didn't even get that job on her own merit. 🤦♀
Obviously a Constitutional scholar.
CORRECTIONS: the other night I was sleeping and as I was about to wake up I had a song in my head from my dream that I couldn't shake.... When I awoke, I thought long and hard and tried to grasp at what that song was that seemed to escape me, but felt oh so familiar. It was "Animal Flubs".... "Animal Flubs".... "the song that drives you crazy, even when you're sleeping, never gives you rest, leaving dreamers weeping." .... "Animal Flubs". ... "Animal Flubs".....
true story.
“Oh no” …….
Can you please do "Most Honourable Comedy Discussion Hour"? Because I would totally watch that.
How does a human not know if they are in a jury? His stupidity is astounding
"I always tell the truth. Even when I lie" Tony Montana....... One of Trumps role models. 🤪
DeSatan does NOT know what "getting your ticket punched means.
Maybe he's busy banning books so that everyone is as ignorant as he is.😂
Don't know if you heard but they were reviewing to remove the dictionary because it has the word sex and a definition included in it. For reals .. Flariduh!
He’s Yale educated. That’s why Trump doesn’t debate him.
I was just astonished that he KEPT SAYING IT. “We got our ticket punched!”
Habbas disbarment is an inevitability. She grossly broke ethic rules and basic rules of being an attorney to audition to personally tank his court cases. But she passed the goon loyalty test so she got the job.
I agree with everything but that she only had to pass the "goon test", because she definitely made him feel like he had a chance with attorney who looks like young Melania.
he also gave her the chicken head test. she passed.
I'm very much looking forward to her disbarment, I hope her victim/former client gets real justice both from Trump Org and from Habba
It is crazy how what she did in NJ is getting more press, feels to me like not just unethical, but illegal.
Ya know ur comment got me thinking....maybe Hablah-blah-blah is behaving like an incompetent low class moron because she thinks the only way off this Trump train IS through disbarment??? If so, give the girl what she wants!!! 😂
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!
I had huge sad-sads and quite self destructive feels today and I have to say this pulled me out of it. Thank you for the laughs. Laughing heals, there's no denying that
Late night is the best, so damn happy they’re all back🙌🙌🙌🙌
TY Seth for pointing out the IA turnout. Another way of looking at it is - 1.56% of he poputlation of Iowa voted. Or less people than who go to a College Bowl Game.
Yeah you really have to dig into demographics to see the details. Either way he still secured a massive amount of delegates regardless of how many voted. People would have to be pretty deluded to not see Iowa as a massive victory for him.
'Even if you vote and then pass away, it's worth it': Trump urges Iowans to vote : Source: CNN
In Indianola, Iowa, on Sunday, former President Trump encouraged Iowans to caucus even if they're 'sick as a dog', saying even if they vote and then pass away, "it's worth it."
Yes, I heard that too. And a commenter said that this was why MAGA can be called a death cult.
it's the way he ran the c crisis
"will you die for me?" he really has that cult leader thing down.

And tell me how credible they are
Ted Kruz proves his spinelessness every time he opens his mouth.
To be fair (and I can't believe I'm saying this) to Nikki and Ron, this was actually a pretty embarrassing showing for Trump in Iowa. In 2020 he won the caucus with over 97% of the vote. This year, despite essentially running as the GOP incumbent, he scored just over 50%. Nearly half of Iowa Republicans didn't want him, as opposed to less than 3% 4 years ago. This actually suggests he's in a bit of trouble.
Trump won Iowa by a landslide, but said "landslide" was less than 3% of the state's electorate.
To dummy it's like winning the WH
Thank you for explaining that to a non-US citizen. The rest of the work genuinely fears Trump becoming President again. Not because he is good, but for the chaos he will bring. The United States is far too important to become a crack pot nation. The Western world needs the USA’s leadership.
😂
He also lost nearly 50% of the GOP vote! The republican voters are not as excited any more, and those who still vote aren't as charmed by Trump as they once were. Good news for our country, but still VOTE VOTE VOTE
Same ol incorrigible lies ! He is a bloody idiot
Big tip for the people of the USA.... Get out and VOTE! VOTE like your future depends on it - because it is very clear that it does.
You MIGHT think that the other guy is old or has memory problems (so they say) but possible memory problems or old has nothing on the disaster that Trump would bring you when Trump is almost as old and very clearly has memory problems - as just shown he has proven he can't remember stuff that should be easy to remember!
He passed the 1st step act, which lowered mandatory minimum sentences for drug crimes, made the process of compationate release easier and limited in what cases solitary confinement can be used for minors.
The right to try act, which allowed people with deadly diseases to try experimental medication that passed phase 1 of fda testing.
1st president since ww2 to start no new wars or get involved in them and signed peace deals with north korea.

If Haly and DeSantis really want to compete against Trump,
they should deny that Trump won Iowa just now.
There wasn’t even a caucus, folks. Everybody’s saying it. Coldest fraud in the history of our country, that I can tell you. Everyone who wasn’t Trump won, and won by a lot. Three times.
That would be hilarious
Gotta go bigger: accept his endorsement, name him as your choice for Secretary for the Interior, and mention "his" plans for his cabinet position in every speaking engagement for the rest of the campaign. He wants to replace the eagle with the turkey as the national bird, he wants to put national parks over every highway so people can drive in the shade, he thinks interior means he's really just in charge of Kansas, just really go nuts. Make it clear you aren't sure you agree with his plans, but you've put your trust in him in this position, as long as he can overcome his "current legal entanglements, which you are sure he can". Tell me Dems wouldn't register to vote for that...
@@onothankyou Beautiful. Alternative facts...
Yep. Strange how it wasn’t ‘rigged’ this time
How I wish we had video from the courtroom to watch Alina Habba be told to sit down, her reply that she doesn't like to be talked to in that way, and the judge again telling her to sit down. I would never stop laughing at that.
The transcript selections I’ve seen are soooo hilarious.
seth is a genius.
we watched him for so many years - many, many years - without seeing he was this funny.
that is the funniest thing he gave us.
Doesn't he only have the one lawyer left?!
Guess most lawyers want to keep their licenses and doesn't want to be a Trump hand puppet in court or make the right-wing media circuit espousing Donald's false talking points. 😉👍💙🇺🇸🕊
on this case anyway
Trump is so self-centered he thought Carly Simon's hit You're So Vain was actually about him.
True
50% of voted when only 14% of voters turned out due to freezing temps.
Right? And in the state 31st in population. Not a whole lot of people. Probably just hard line MAGAs
@@VariablePenguindefinitely no dancers
Since there is no statutory minimum for voter turnout, it doesn't matter how small the voter turnout was.
Of those votes that got cast, he still got 51%.
Let's not pretend that calling him "likely" is objective reporting. The GOP really has no choice
They absolutely have a choice. They can resolutely say he does not represent them or their policies. But they won't which is what makes them dangerous and unworthy of power.
@@materialgrl2000 you're Right. Their best choice is well beyond them
Habba is like a driver who passed her driving test at the 100th attempt. I wouldn't accept a lift from her or let her represent me in any level of legal work.
Alina Habba is not a real lawyer, she just plays a terrible one on TV. (How did she even pass her bar exam?)
She got her diploma at Trump University...
She got a law degree as a prize for being a runner-up in the Miss MAGA pageant?

The way Chump's lawyer kept asking for an adjournment after being told no many times, you'd expect the judge to have her held in contempt.
Not enough Melanin % or lack of $$$ for that to happen.
Remember we are dealing with Trumpanzee's Circus of Bronze'a. If it was anyone else they would have been held in contempt weeks ago.
But we are seeing a display of the two-tiered justice system some folks have been yelling about for decades.
" Rules and laws for thee but none for the GOP"
Dude has lied so much he doesn't know what "truth" is. He literally has said if you say something over and over it is true😂

I remember a clip I think Colbert did. He wondered what trump did all day. Cut to the Oval, T trying to build a fort with KFC buckets. 😅
Habba would get ripped to shreds in a high school mock trial let alone real life.
Correction: the door that blew out of the Alaska Airlines plane wasn’t on an exit row. It technically wasn’t even a door. The Boeing 737 MAX 9 is configurable so have an exit door at that specific row. Alaska Airlines ordered the airplane configuration without that exit door. But instead of building a new airplane frame, Boeing “plugged” the door and covered the plug with the interior wall.
This clip reminds me of when my uncle told me there are three kinds of people... those who can count and those who can't..🤔😜🤣🤣🤣

Habba acts like her client had no way of controlling the date of the funeral. Either Melania scheduled the funeral during his trial so he could make a big deal about changing the trial, or she doesn't want him there.
Correction; it wasn’t an exit row that blew out in the Alaska airlines flight. It was a plugged door that they don’t use, so essentially a window.
