How many unemployed have you got now? The ones being urged back to work become expendable in the eyes of fat cats like Christie and Trump. Maybe it is like war, the workers are being treated like cannon fodder.
@Emmett Hardie When is he playing golf? I have seen one picture three years ago of him playing golf. Congress and senate takes two week vacations. And you don't bitch about that? And what German company. Don't send me to a link. Because there is a-lot of bull-shit on line.
@lima leaf frog This is what I've been saying all along. The workers need to say, "NO, we will not return to work until we are GUARANTEED that safety protocols are in place and testing is readily available."
It's not simply "the cost of a human life" it's the value of my mother, or your father, or someone's baby sister or your favorite aunt or your grandparents that have been married for 50 years. It's acceptable until it's someone you love? That's not right.
@Steven this is not about Trump or Republicans, or Democrat, or even elections. We must reopen economy because it will not survive another month or two of lockdowns. If economy collapses, it will kill more people than the virus.
@@masa461 Having to choose between your health and your job is a false choice. There is nothing more important than your health. The government could simply pay people to stay home for the duration of the pandemic and they would spend that money that would go right back into the economy.
Survival of the manny versus survival off the few is what human beings often have to deal with millions of Americans losing their jobs their house their businesses or thousands of people passing away.
Oh shut-up, our country has shown more "empathy" and generosity than any nation in the world. Show some empathy toward people who don't agree with your political opinions first. Practice what you preach first democrat's.
piplupcola - so many things to add to that list... lacking intelligence, critical thinking, lacking TRUE/proper information and ability to make personal choices!
@@sadiestoltzfus9798, again DON'T embarrass yourself. Are you watching Faux entertainment as your news? You are trying too hard to make a stupid and uninformed message in here. I've read enough of this back and forth. My conclusion: Sadie pet. Get some help, I suggest you get your brain examined if you still have Obamacare.
“I’m leaving for Arizona.” Quick, change the locks on the White House doors. “I’ve seen models that were very inaccurate.” And he married them. “How did these people get jobs?” Not sure that’s a question that someone who only got a job cos daddy owned the company should ask. Especially when even daddy doubted you were up to the job many times. “Of course I’ll wear a mask if it’s a mask facility.” But, evidently not if the mask facility wasn’t originally a mask facility. His one chance to do something positive during this health crisis by demonstrating that he took the sensible precautions of wearing a mask as outlined by his task force and he couldn’t even do that. Presumably, as he lied during his “Lincoln” interview with Fox State TV, if every state has numbers of infections falling rapidly and he’s made the virus go away so no need for a task force anymore, then White House tours will start again and there’ll be no need to test anyone who turns up cos the virus has been defeated. Or does Trump mean he wants every other business open but not one that’s close to him. It does beg the question though - is he disbanding the task force because he thinks the virus has gone away or because they often exposed his lies by telling us what’s really happening. It’s odd timing - everything changed after his suggestion that we all have a Lysol on the rocks before bed. Is he now saying that we the people no longer need to know what’s happening in case the truth affects his re-election chances. I’d say that move alone should seriously affect his re-election chances.
It will when Texans Floridians and Georgians see their people dying! Check out the spread of this virus in the meat packing plants! 1person sick becomes 600 now 900 & that's just the ones reported!
Thrasymachus Monk the well know and often used phrase to “beg the question” means to raise a point that has not been dealt with. In this case many people have dealt with it others, like your good self, are desperately trying to avoid having to deal with it. And no amount of magniloquence on your part can hide that - even if you try to pass yourself off as a 5th century BSE Greek spokesperson for cynical realism promoting the theory that might makes right.
@Emmett Hardie no one has to trump themselves, he does that quit well himself...but since americans have been so dumbed down the last 30yrs I'm surprised you even comprehend the previous paragraphs! Simply said trumpeter are just deplorables
@Samara Hamilton the phone companies alter your name for privacy that's how much you know about you tube...stick with what you know try Fox it's more your speed!
I say invest in schools, not in churches. Every time you feel the need to go to church on Sunday, go to a science faire. Modify the 2nd amendment sk every stupid knows that it was never ment for them to own guns. After that just wait 100 years and will be fine.
Joslyn Vazquez that’s why everyone is supposed to stay the fuck at home. In Germany we did it and slowly start public life again. Maybe it’s because we don’t protest or beat our doctors and nurses But then again, we are not being governed by a hysterical baby.
Oh No! All the labourers have to go back to work as soon as possible (like yesterday!) Why, the rich and powerful haven't made nearly as many millions in the past month and they usually do and soon, they may have to start cooking their own meals and cleaning their own homes. We just can't have that now can we?
No, they are trying to stretch this out as long as possible and as close to the election they can because by then people will be so desperate they will vote for whoever they think will give them free money. Maybe Hunter Biden can give back the billion dollars he got running errands for his corrupt daddy and they can dole it back to us. It's ours anyway.
He gets better and better. At the first homemade late shows, he had his problems, working without audience. But now - he found the flow! It's a pleasure to see the show, thank you Mister Colbert! Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹, stay safe!
Comparing the victims of the virus to fallen soldiers in WWII is based on an inappropriate metaphor of PANDEMIC IS WAR. It's bad because American citizens aren't fighting the war - they don't even want to be in a war. All they want is to be safe and isolated from the threat. It's better to say the pandemic is like letting bloodthirsty raiders prey on your unarmed population (guns don't matter for shit here) because the leaders were so incompetent they couldn't protect their people.
"Trump claims he won't return until the media starts treating him fairly." A bad person complaining about being portrayed as a bad person. Nothing to see here.
@Master-Grief 117 Shame we can't track Trump's finances, which he consistently hides, to see who's paying for HIS words!!! Most of it is Russian loans, but he is still fighting in court to hide the details. Putin's puppet, along with the one percent.
@Master-Grief 117 You can't find ANYONE on TV who is not paid by a corporation - that doesn't mean they are telling him what to say. Besides, if giant corporations were telling him what to say, they would tell him to STFU about Trump. Trump has given them so may financial blow jobs it is ridiculous.
Master-Grief 117 So, you “understand” comedy ? Well done you!👍. Actually I didn’t find the Chris Morris peadophilia ep. all that funny. There’s a really big difference in “taking the piss” out of Gary Lineker (excellent football commentator) and dictator wannabe Trump. Also, was John Cleese a political satirist?
Nor have many of the govenors trying to restarttheir states. In fact when the Mayor of Las vegas, who has said se my city to see if it spreads again, was asked if she'd be willing to go to the casino floor, she said "i have a family" and tried to deflect the question.
It’s funny. Trump is asking how people like Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert got to be where they are today... While simultaneously most of the human population on this planet is asking the same thing about him.
"Republicans are like comic book collectors: Human life only holds value until you take it out of the package, and then it's worth nothing." - Trevor Noah
Anti abortion..butnot antiguns or antideath penalty or pro healthcare or pro safety nets. They want you to suffer while you live. They wealth means God chose them. They think if you are suffering it's God wants it.
Charles has been spamming that in the comments so either he's a Russian bot or he's a sycophant with no life and this is his only form of social contact. Either way he's a loser.
@Charles Charlemagne I suggest you go out, find a crowded area, and breath deep. Especially if someone is coughing. You can just inject some disinfectant afterwards, you'll be fine...
Charles Charlamagne: you should know a thing or two about sheep behavior, following a guy who’s ‘yuge’ idea was to down Lysol. Go ahead and go outside, don’t forget to get DNR tattooed on your forehead when you idiots get infected.
The Covid-19 situation has been especially stressful for the Flat Earth Society. They fear that the social distancing measures could push people over the edge
Thank you, Steven Colbert and everyone involved in producing your show, for producing consistently brilliant satire and insightful social commentary. Your show provides much needed comic relief and a daily reminder to aspire to become our highest selves by putting others first.
Both political parties were taken over by neoliberal corporatists that used progressive or proto-fascist rhetoric to ignite their respective voting bases which were dumbed down by years of neoliberal plutocrats defunding education and right wing donors pumping ungodly amounts of money into corporatist right wing propaganda outlets or corporatist liberal propaganda, to the point that both electorates became increasingly stupid, polarized, and partisan in nature, then the DNC chose the 2 most unlikable humans on earth to oppose the most despicable man on earth, because they realized they make more money with Trump in power - and its easier to push through conservative policies that are preferred by their donors when the GOP controls the entire government. Thus... Trump.
How did this guy get the job??? Easy answer... it shows the deterioration of the American system, where many people line up behind a bully, to see what spoils they can grab for their own sorry ass.
"Trump says that when the weather gets warmer, it will miraculously go away." Erm - it is a daily 35 degree Celsius (95 fahrenheit) in my country, and the virus is definitely still here, happily frolicking away in my sunny tropical country.
Seriously though. I spit up bleach all over my new shirt. Now it's ruined and The Late Show will be receiving a bill shortly. Thank god I wasn't wearing pants.
Steve ... I think you're talented and hella funny! I love Seth Meyers I love Jimmy Kimmel and I love Trevor Noah you guys rock you have great stuff great insight and it give us some humor to get through these crazy times.
We laugh at you, Mr Colbert, and we laugh at Seth Meyers, because you are witty, insightful and humorous. We laugh at Donald Trump for a different reason. Oh, and it's not for his incisive wit. The old saying is that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, yet Trump cannot even manage that convincingly!
@@Brettsparadox What's funny about trump? He's not smart, witty, has no sense of humor at all. He's a daily embarrassment to the world. Trump is easy to make fun of, being the babbling idiot that he is, but trump, himself isn't funny at all.
Maybe that's what he meant all along and projections show the virus will go away too quickly, so he's planning a second lock down to meet that 2021 target. In Trump we Trust!
@@sommmeguy He wasn't. Trump himself has failed to make that claim. ( go ahead and call me a Libtard if you want. If that's all you have. I didn't vote Liberal and am Canadians so unleash away - I mean I get called Libtard by some Conservatives here and Liberal supporters call me all sorts of names both groups forgetting we don't have two options here )
Thank you Stephen and team for your brilliant humour. Lots of laugh out loud moments. JUST what I needed. I really do appreciate all of you for helping raise our spirits. It’s also a comfort (sadly) to know that it’s not only the U.K. that have made a complete hash of guarding is against this pandemic.
Love Stephen and Seth, they are funny and very astute, they are two intelligent and interesting men, but I along with the rest of the world, laugh more at trump and trumpers, due to their stupidity. Stephen and Seth have something that trump will never have, INTEGRITY. Love and best wishes from England
We need the country restarted otherwise the entire country will go bankrupt with people losing their jobs and ending up in food lines in order to feed their children.
He means "business friend", Stephen. That's when tiny, creepy dudes at business luncheons, meetings, etc gravitate together in the hopes of making a profit based on their mutual awkwardness.
Wow... So I WAS underestimating when I figured there would be 130k dead by memorial day. I have no training in Virology. I should NOT be better at predicting the spread than the government officials in charge of dealing with it!
Your statistics are off, troll. You have staked your hopes on a sinking ship, a ship that was sinking before it even set sail because it was crewed by a party with a deeply flawed ideology.
How dare Trump attack the marvelously adorable Seth Meyers whose closing line of "Stay safe. We love you" has been a source of comfort and encouragement to many people including myself while every sound coming out of that vile orange dictator kills me a little bit?
Must be tough being a comedian these days, drowning in source material. It's nice seeing your down to earth perspective on the crazy Trump circus and thanks for the laughs.
It makes me think of how my cat always wanted to go out the back door, he would meow and scratch at the for minutes at a time. Finally I would get up and open the door to let him out. He would take one look outside and realise there's a raging storm of icy rain fall and he would immediately turn around and sit on the sofa. I kind of feel like the same thing is about to happen in America. As soon as the door opens for the cruises, the hair salons, and the bowling alleys, people will start dying at a faster rate. Suddenly everyone will voluntarily turn around and sit straight back down on their sofas again hoping for the storm to pass their families and loved ones unscathed.
"The American people have gone through significant death before." Yeah, know what else we've gone through before? Economic hardships lasting more than a couple months.
Jody Owen well, the „same and rational“ will be spreading the virus even more - and the US government already fails horribly. I‘m living in Germany and since here we have less people infected, we slowly start back in our lives while monitoring the number of cases. Now compare that to the clown telling people to drink bleach
Jody Owen Americans will thank the people ignoring what scientists say for many more deaths than already happened. The US has a growing number (!) of cases and people already want to go out. I guess it’s natural selection then
trump is tested frequently and everyone around him is tested frequently. I suppose that he was decontaminated and burned his clothes after his trip to Arizona. I wonder if he saves his urine in milk bottles...
It's hilarious that he hates the show but still watches it. Anything to keep him from thinking about his failures & allow him to target his anger outwardly.
he does need to run out quite a few statutes of limitation. If he isnt re elected, he could find his way of life very restricted. The Marmalade Madman is scared shitless and gets more dangerous by the day.
Ya vote for the party that doesn't even listen to their party members. At least trump supporters stand up together and try to help instead of just spreading political commentary on youtube...
Steve, you got me through some of the loneliest ( 🎶Mr.Lonely🎶) unbelievably nightmarish ( according to my television) times the last few years, how...why....💖
When will Stephen be having Andrew Cuomo back on? Seems like it should be rather soon. I would love to hear them talk about the "value of a human life", now. Hope Stephen likes the taste of shoe leather.
@@anthonybha4510 you mean one who has number of women saying stuff about him and then he admitted to paying hush money and the other whose accuser is inconsistent like Trump during his worst schizoid attacks? Harrassment scandals are the most common standard practice of political attacks, but in Trump's case, there was nothing needed making up. The guy just grabs pussy everytime he sees one. At least whenever his weak baby hand can rise nowadays.
If I remember correctly didn't Moses cover his face after being in the very presence of God? Perhaps Vitali was in the presence of another entity so no covering his face was necessary.
@@34and0 so anyone who talks about God, you have to say it's fiction? The only person who truly knows you DW is God. Also, maybe u could spend your time productively instead of going out of your way to bash people's faith. Take care!!
HAAAA!!!!!! "Married Donald CBS"!!!!!!!! That's a GREAT one Stephen!!!!!!! I ❤️ it!!!! Thanks for your ability to make me laugh during the scariest, saddest of times. It's SO mind blowing. I hope enough of us survive to get rid of the Orange Anus in Nov. Please, please try to write into your show that Trump's grandad Friedrich DIED of the FLU DURING the Pandemic of 1918!!! Pretty interesting fun fact, and super ironic that he continually refers to it as 1917. It's true. Look it up. Ahhhh, the Circle of Life- cosmic karma would really be coming full circle to see Donald's life (who's not more priceless than any American's life) come to an end by the same sword as dear Freidrich's. Apropos, wouldn't it be? I'm patriotic, and I've always respected the man who served in the Oval Office, even George W. It was hard, but that was patriotic. You always respected the office of the President of the USA. But, this being in the White House (I refuse to admit he's human), he's vile. He's pond scum. He deserves no respect because he gives no respect. He devalues America hourly with the SAD and SICK things he says and does. I weep for America, for my children, and God willing, my children's children-all future generations for the horrendous things Trump is doing to destroy our country and the globe in his attempt at a money and power grab. Biggest con and grifter America has ever seen, yet a substantial portion of the country drank the Kool aid and blindly worships the most ungodlike cretan the world may have ever known. Blasphemy!! Anyhow, Stephen, life is pretty DEPRESSING, so just know that despite a talking orange anus saying you're NOT funny, in my book you're killing it. If we can chuckle or laugh out loud at these circumstances, you must be a knee slapper. Cuz you're working with some pretty tough material these days. Thanks again! I look forward to mornings with you on the RU-vid 😂 You know, that newfangled thing the wee young whippersnappers use. And please, encourage all the fools running around without masks to PLEASE social distance, wear a mask and try to stay home!!! This is for one summer-a small sacrifice if it gets you another 30-60 years!!!!! And if not, well, I just hope we lose MAGA dumb fucks and not innocents. Bless all front lines and first responders in these uncertain times. ❤️✌️👍❤️💪🙏❤️🤞
I’m excited for November when we get to vote trump out. I don’t care what it takes. He needs to get out of office. This crisis will not end until we have a leader who takes this seriously.
I really like this show rn. I can’t get myself to tune this shitstorm out so at least I get to laugh lol (I don’t like talk shows that much but I really dig this format cos it feels genuine and that has a different note to it) love you & your staff
