Obama Speaks Out About Trump’s Coronavirus Failures: A Closer Look 

The funniest part is that Pres. Obama didn’t actually say his name, but we ALL knew who he was (correctly) describing as “so-called grown-ups”, even his allies.

My wife's pregnancy tests always came back negative then one day it turned out positive after something happened, who knows what? Those crazy pregnancy tests are so unreliable. If we hadn't tested, she wouldn't be pregnant. Does hydroxychloroquine prevent or interrupt pregnancy? Lots of people are saying it will.

"Helping the dumbest kid in school with his science work..." bit, I haven't laughed out loud in a while!!!

As a slovak I can confirm only mopeds, many people are named Vladimír and we like to drink kofola. Cheers from Slovakia!

I think Seth is doing a great job of doing the show from his home. Shout out to him, his team, and his family for keeping us informed and entertained during this time.

Have you ever “pretended” to throw a ball for a dog to chase but there was no ball? That’s what trump is doing and his followers keep going after the ball that isn’t there. Astoundingly, they fall for it every time.

As a Latvian, i can report: 1) yeah, we have some Gustavs, sure 2) we drink Kvass 3) and we have bunch of electric scooters Thank you for your attention!

The pigeon brain in a potato joke had me rolling, i dont know if it was the joke or the execution but kudos

Vote. It pisses off Republicans.

This man doesn't need an audience or a studio, he's a natural where ever he is. He still breaks and does improv. I'm liking the book joke.

Remember there was a time when the US had a President who could talk in coherent sentences!

Im not even american, but hearing Obama's voice again makes me long for the past. lmao

"Like trying to help the dumbest kid in the class with his science homework"... OMG, nailed it!

Seth is absolutely killing this stay at home late night game.

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how good of a trump impressionist he is.

"THE GREATEST TRICK THE DEVIL EVER PULLED WAS TO CONVINCE THE WORLD HE DID NOT EXIST" Verbal ...... The Usual Supspects

A “kakistocracy” is a government led by those least qualified to do so. That is exactly what we have now.

Where in the HELL is shoe throwing guy when the world needs him most!

The Fraser reference was hilarious.

I just noticed from the clip in this, that the “Space Force” flag is the Star Trek emblem 😂

I laughed so hard that almost choked on my coffee when I saw his Space Force logo. That's the Star Trek logo! I didn't think it was possible for trump to look any more stupid, I was wrong....

I wouldn't have flunked high school geometry if I had never been tested. Stupid, unnecessary tests.

"I don't know enough about these countries to make a joke" the most american thing to say

“The whole concept of tests is not necessary” -- but that bone spur test was necessary

We miss you President Obama You could actually lead competently

So how's that 15 cases trickling down to 0 thing going

Obamas vocabulary was so advance, I bet man child didn't even know he got clapped.

That Fraser joke got me. That was my first laugh of the day. It’s only 7am so that’s not sad or anything.

I have GOT to find another way of expressing my reaction to idiocy. Facepalming has almost given me a concussion!

“Brain of a pigeon into a giant potato”. 😂😂Dude always makes me laugh out loud.

Thank you Seth. Just caught this show. You’ve lifted me. It’s.been a terrible week after the horrendous murder of George Floyd.. But there is a glimmer of hope for the future. The first sign.was officers taking the knee with peaceful protesters. That wonderful police chief saying to Trump “if you can’t say anything that will help the situation then KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏BRAVO BRAVO! Bring that up again and again!

the Bhutan's 'curve' looks like Frasier gag had me laughing waaaaaaay too hard.

The Frasier reference made my pandemic, Seth.

"Thord of the Bings" 😂 Oh no, "The Thorn Birds" has infected yet another novel!!

"And then out of the blue today, for some reason she tested positive". SMH! She caught the virus....fml

Thord of the Bings... lol! Love it! I frequently listen to your segment while doing something else, and occasionally flip back to look at your awesome graphics while doing that other thing. Gems like this will motivate me to watch your closer look segments more closely! In other news, thank you, always, for filtering the news/horrors via your monologues and "closer look" segments! I am grateful for you and your staff! :D

"If we didn't have laws, there'd be no crime."

I would love to see someone in the crowd just yell out "You're an idiot" to Trump mouhahahaha

When any organization is more concerned with logos rather than content, the project's already dead.

Seth you missed a golden opportunity. The flag is Starfleet Command or the Federation from Star trek.

“Do what you think is right. Doing what feels good, what’s convenient, what’s easy - that’s how little kids think. Unfortunately, a lot of so-called grown-ups, including some with fancy titles and important jobs, still think that way - which is why things are so screwed up.” So true!

“We’ve successfully implanted the brain of a pigeon into a potato”... that’s the stuff.

"He is SOO close to getting it" 🤣🤣🤣

This is my favourite Seth video. It's two weeks later and I'm still laughing out loud at Buthan, Brother and Moi!

Oh my god, I don't often laugh out loud during late shows (I'm German, after all), but his German impression and the bit about Angela Merkel had me crying with laughter! 😂

Here in Australia we’ve had good leadership at federal and state level. I’m in the beautiful island state of Tasmania in Australia, and we started working from home in mid March. Australia has 99 deaths, most linked to one cruise liner, and that’s bad enough. Everyone is working together here. We have internet news about the virus every day - concise news, not two hour rallies. I’m grateful every day to have been born in Australia - I won the jackpot when I was born in Tasmania.

I am watching from congo kinshasha, i realy love your program. Please dont stop and please stay stay. God bless you sir for your honesty.

Yes, I've been watching the title change and was wondering when he was going to talk about it. Some of my favorites were the "Borscht Rind" and "Born Turds." hahaha

The only reason he doesn’t wear a mask is VANITY.

"smoke detectors are useless, they'll be quiet for years and then you finally feel safe enough to leave a candle on top of a mattress and they start beeping like crazy". Hilarious!!!!!

I really like these episodes it brings more awareness and I absolutely love that all the episodes are fundraisers!

Thank you Seth for making quarantine slightly more bearable. Your witty humour and articulate elocution is a brilliant antidote to the maelstrom of incoherent, mindless babble that spews forth unabated by the annoying orange.

I wonder how much overwhelming evidence Americans need to understand the fact that they are not by any means the greatest country on the planet, not even like the top five.

Ah yes, The Thord of the Bings, the great adventures of Bodo Thaggins

Rove compared Obama’s speech to a “drive by shooting.” That’s not racist at all.

no we just got a guy who thinks hes the best liar on earth!..

"Are you allowed to impeach a president for gross incompetence?" - Donald Trump

"Thord of the Rings" Seth's team really has far to much time on their hands now.

Im convinced that the reason trump does not wear a mask because he is scared his tan is gonna come off

The prevailed/pre-failed and smoke detectors jokes killed me............... hehehehehe

Trump's initial peabrain has somehow even managed to shrink down to a rice grain. Truly fascinating times!

“Pre-failed” 😂😂😂😂😂

you are perfect the way you are. No worry about hair or books. We like listening to your words in this very sad and difficult time. I am in Italy where most people are masking masks caring about protecting the elderly that are many in my country. I am pretty proud of what Italians are doing at this time. Let's hope it will continue until we are more secure about what's going on with this mysterious virus. Pray and hope all of you are doing well, hugs to all, Angela :)

If she had it- and showed no symptoms- then how else would you have figured out she had it unless you TESTED her?? So she could've just waltzed around infecting others....

Obama sounded so frustrated giving his speech. I feel his frustration through the screen.

Wow, the Space Force flag looks a whole lot like the Star Fleet emblem.

POTUS Unfit to Shine Obama's Shoes !

😩 Help us!!!!! This “president” is killing us!!!! Vote him OUT!!!!

What a joke when you see all the other countries, some I’ve never heard of, doing better than we are. It really sums up his whole presidency doesn’t it?

Latvian here. Gustavs is good guess :D We love adding -s at the end of words and names for men. Seth Meyers would be - Sets Meijers. :D I`d say on the whole we`re doing good because National emergency was declared after 20 or so people got confirmed as having the virus in one day but the total number then was smth around 50. Schools closed down, kindergartens are open only for those that cannot work from home and all big events are cancelled. Now they will soften some restrictions however we never were on a complete lockdown or quarantine. Social distancing is still in place but for 2 months no visits to friends and family outside your household were allowed. Btw, everyone is talking how they will not travel to the US for a couple of years or until vaccine at least :D

That spaceforce flag looks like the starfleet symbol from Star Trek!!!

I thank God for you and The Thornbirds every day. Why isn’t there an underline feature so that we can properly credit written works?

"It's worth remembering that Hitler was actually an incompetent, lazy egomaniac and his government was an absolute clown show. In fact, this may even have helped his rise to power, as he was consistently underestimated by the German elite. Before he became chancellor, many of his opponents had dismissed him as a joke for his crude speeches and tacky rallies. Even after elections had made the Nazis the largest party in the Reichstag, people still kept thinking that Hitler was an easy mark, a blustering idiot who could easily be controlled by smart people. Why did the elites of Germany so consistently underestimate Hitler? Possibly because they weren't actually wrong in their assessment of his competency-they just failed to realise that this wasn't enough to stand in the way of his ambition. As it would turn out, Hitler was really bad at running a government. As his own press chief Otto Dietrich later wrote in his memoir The Hitler I Knew, "In the twelve years of his rule in Germany Hitler produced the biggest confusion in government that has ever existed in a civilized state." His government was constantly in chaos, with officials having no idea what he wanted them to do, and nobody was entirely clear who was actually in charge of what. He procrastinated wildly when asked to make difficult decisions, and would often end up relying on gut feeling, leaving even close allies in the dark about his plans. His "unreliability had those who worked with him pulling out their hair," as his confidant Ernst Hanfstaengl later wrote in his memoir Zwischen Weißem und Braunem Haus. This meant that rather than carrying out the duties of state, they spent most of their time in-fighting and back-stabbing each other in an attempt to either win his approval or avoid his attention altogether, depending on what mood he was in that day. There's a bit of an argument among historians about whether this was a deliberate ploy on Hitler's part to get his own way, or whether he was just really, really bad at being in charge of stuff. Dietrich himself came down on the side of it being a cunning tactic to sow division and chaos-and it's undeniable that he was very effective at that. But when you look at Hitler's personal habits, it's hard to shake the feeling that it was just a natural result of putting a workshy narcissist in charge of a country. Hitler was incredibly lazy. According to his aide Fritz Wiedemann, even when he was in Berlin he wouldn't get out of bed until after 11 a.m., and wouldn't do much before lunch other than read what the newspapers had to say about him, the press cuttings being dutifully delivered to him by Dietrich. He was obsessed with the media and celebrity, and often seems to have viewed himself through that lens. He once described himself as "the greatest actor in Europe," and wrote to a friend, "I believe my life is the greatest novel in world history." In many of his personal habits he came across as strange or even childish-he would have regular naps during the day, he would bite his fingernails at the dinner table, and he had a remarkably sweet tooth that led him to eat "prodigious amounts of cake" and "put so many lumps of sugar in his cup that there was hardly any room for the tea." He was deeply insecure about his own lack of knowledge, preferring to either ignore information that contradicted his preconceptions, or to lash out at the expertise of others. He hated being laughed at, but enjoyed it when other people were the butt of the joke (he would perform mocking impressions of people he disliked). But he also craved the approval of those he disdained, and his mood would quickly improve if a newspaper wrote something complimentary about him. Little of this was especially secret or unknown at the time. It's why so many people failed to take Hitler seriously until it was too late, dismissing him as merely a "half-mad rascal" or a "man with a beery vocal organ." In a sense, they weren't wrong. In another, much more important sense, they were as wrong as it's possible to get. Hitler's personal failings didn't stop him having an uncanny instinct for political rhetoric that would gain mass appeal, and it turns out you don't actually need to have a particularly competent or functional government to do terrible things. We tend to assume that when something awful happens there must have been some great controlling intelligence behind it. It's understandable: how could things have gone so wrong, we think, if there wasn't an evil genius pulling the strings? The downside of this is that we tend to assume that if we can't immediately spot an evil genius, then we can all chill out a bit because everything will be fine. But history suggests that's a mistake, and it's one that we make over and over again. Many of the worst man-made events that ever occurred were not the product of evil geniuses. Instead they were the product of a parade of idiots and lunatics, incoherently flailing their way through events, helped along the way by overconfident people who thought they could control them." From HUMANS: A Brief History of How We F*cked It All Up by Tom Phillips

I wonder how long it took them to rip off the Starfleet Command logo 🤔

Seth, I love your fans comments as much as you!!

this was 2 months ago today....feels like 6 years ago

So.... Can the US be sued by Star Treck for that flag?

Obama is a constant reminder of how important it is to vote in November because this current guy in the White House just pales in comparison 🧐🤨

I’m pretty sure Trump thinks “gate” is a crime of some kind.

That crazy hair at the end and Seth so serious 🤣💙🐾

"We have prefailed." 😂

"Political drive-by shooting... " Interesting choice of words there.

Sorry to post twice but it is just a joy and a pleasure to hear Seth and his writing

That low tune u have Killing floor ☺️☺️

The thing not mentioned about the cardboard cutouts in the soccer stadium is: that's a way for the fans to support their club financially so it doesn't go bankrupt.

Are you missing your graduation this year? Do you feel left out? Well there is hope. You can experience what a graduation is right in your home with these 5 simple steps. 1. Donn a wool blanket 2. Sit in an uncomfortable chair 3. turn your thermostat up 10 degrees too high 4. Listen to someone read the phonebook for 4 hours 5. throw a hat in the air.

😆 Your talk about George W. Bush's "Mission Accomplished" banner with the asterisk was the funniest sentence of misdirection I have ever seen! January 18, 2021, 12:03am

Greetings from Latvia! :D

Thord of the Rings 😏 I’m enjoying these little mini-scavenger hunts lol

"As you can see, we've successfully implanted the brain of a pigeon into a giant potato, and then sewed on some limbs and shocked it with electricity until it came to life." God bless you and your writing team Seth.

Good job again Seth-!!!

I always think about that funny quote from The Simpsons movie after Grandpa has an outburst in church, Homer says "A certain someone had a senior moment". That's what I think about Trump all the time. He's a senile old fool

Come on, brain of a pigeon, that's being overly generous.

Reporter: What's Obamagate? Trump: We haven't decided yet!

The now 2 month old commentary is GOLD !

I love the impressions and comments seriously funny And entertaining

Why does the new flag for Space Force looks like the emblem for Star Trek's Federation.

THE ONLY PERSON TRUMP EVER HIERD WHO WAS ACTUALLY QUALIFIED TO DO THEIR JOB WAS STORMY DANIELS.

"what up with the graph of Bhutan?" - the maximum number of cases they had was 3. So the graph goes up and down between 1, 2, and 3. Not really fair to compare that with the USA.

Oh my gosh your best clip yet Seth
