Agreed! Especially since he doesn't have a heart - even at Christmas time - to allow a decent stimulus check to those who so desperately need it. That is truly heartless.
@@virtualmartini You're inferring a lot about a person from a grammatical mistake. Should we assume you're a fascist because you criticize people in Colbert comment sections?
I don't guess you got the Raiders of the Lost Ark reference. His character is the henchman who burned his hand on the gold medallion and who's face melted when they opened the ark. So yes he was a Nazi.
As much as I thought it would end up with Raiders of the Lost Ark with the Sack, I honestly saw Mitch more as Judge doom with his attire, voice especially.
But they DO forget. If you were born this year, it would be *old news* by the time you were starting to draw your own conclusions about the world, and almost two decades in the past before you could actually do anything about it. Then it's just "a thing you have been told" so many times that you've developed ideas about what it was like when it was happening, even if you watched contemporary recordings. What we need are laws that prevent this sort of cluster...um... *thing* from happening again, and maybe even annotations in the law that describe its intent so it can't be inadvertently buggered up, and a lot harder to *deliberately* circumvent.
@Robo Cop Haven't been paying much attention, have you? At least this is done in jest, Trump would have enslaved the country by now given sufficient power to do it
"You made my holidays a living hell! But I got ya something...." I feel like that is SO Joe Biden. That and the fact that he was so worried about whether they were or weren't ok. Amazing.
@@telectronix1368 ooookay now in the next cleanup cartoon (this is at least No 2 after the Santa saves the Mueller Probe thing) when the GOP still has not turned back into a real boy by Christmas 2021 they need to make Mitch into the Terminator, having been sent from the future to kill democracy... And Ted Cruz needs to get the bucket of water treatment from the Wizard of Oz ;)
@@c_blaze5052 I wasnt trying to cancel them out. I just wanted to point out the fact that Obama isn't the only war criminal we've had in modern history.
I am 65 years of age and even though I’m Jewish ; I loved watching all the Christmas cartoons and this was by far the most relevant and flawlessly well done!! Bravo bravo bravo👈👈👈
A real "Joy" is printing out his monologues and wiping my a** with them when the local stores are out of toilet paper, then flushing them back to where they came from, the sewer. Him and Rachel Maddow ought to team up that would give us 2/3 of the Three Stooges.
Absolutely agreed... please ignore any imbecilic responses to your pleasant comment... the new theme for the coming year should b to rise above the likes of the twat who’s already responded negatively to u... I’d usually comment on how gormless and vulgar his comment makes him appear, but I’m starting early- so just going to leave it go 😆 Merry Christmas Lawrence Wade 🎄
The fact McConnel is dressed as the guy from Raiders of the Lost Ark and whistles like Gopher from Winnie the Pooh really pleases me. And then it was immediately followed up by a Planet of the Apes reference! THIS IS BRILLIANT!
@@carolyntalbot947 Well, 2019 was a little rough for me, too, going back even to October of 2018. I was in the hospital for several months with severe bronchial troubles, only to have my husband checked in just before I was sent home. He died in 2019 following a third stroke. So I had more to adjust to other than the Lockdown. I am not allowed to go anywhere except to medical appointments! Well, at least we have a string of lights over the fireplace, lots of hot drinks, and a tiny Christmas tree diorama with a Santa and tiny gifts. My son will be cooking us a pair of Cornish hens for Christmas dinner. We will have to share with our furballs. We'll buy our own presents for ourselves, via online shopping. Makes me feel good. I am determined to have a merry Christmas regardless, and no Grinch will steal Christmas this year.
"Don't think about Ivanka, don't think about Ivanka". So funny, and so disturbing because you just know that's where his thoughts would go. Also who else thinks that snowglobe would look nice on his jail cell windowledge ?
What a sweet gift from the brilliant staff and associates of the Colbert team! So beautifully crafted! It really feels like Christmas is here indeed--now that we are actually beginning to see the beginning of the end of a truly horrible, prolonged Trump regime hijacking of the essential goodness of America and the truest American ideals...GOD BLESS US ALL, EVERYONE! (Well...maybe not EVERYONE!!👐lol!)
Yeah, I can’t believe I didn’t recognize Mitch’s outfit at first. He looked familiar but I just figured that was because they made him look so much like a Galapagos turtle. Not that he doesn’t already...
Hopefully after Tuesday the last bit of power they hold will be gone...what a new years miracle it will be ......if so I would chop off my on leg to see mitch mcconnels reaction in real time to him loosing his majority leader title..
The fact that the only thing disqualifying this from being a true story is the North Pole setting and Santa and the Santa sack being real is really funny and scary
@@reneefuller5609 I'm very tired of bait and switch from both sides. But these last four years has been like constant diarrhea and no t.p. If we are a free people then why do we allow non transparent policies which promote pollution hidden as help? Greed yet we get Oh it's business, oh it's more complicated than that, oh trust us. I have three demands which I've never had. Clean water, clean air, clean crops. The three things I must have to survive yet those are not important it seems to any others we elect. I can't leave earth yet I don't have an equal say or a equal share of the resources of this planet because my ancestors didn't kill those who were living here and steal their property like many families who influence policies did. When I say that isn't fair, it's oh that's how it is. Tired I say, tired. Got to go and eat some legal posion while drinking toxic water, c-ya.
@@sandras7029 you should check out the curse of tippecanoe. It states who ever becomes president in the 2020 will die in office, so yeah yet that seems weird. I voted for Pres Harris.
What a masterpiece. The humor--the characters--the epic battle between Good and Evil--the twists and turn in the plot--and the very happiest of endings! But, will Donald be content with his snow globe???
A Christmas tale we will always remember. . Thanks Steven for all you have done to keep our spirits up. Happy Holidays to all and GOOD HEALTH going forward
Ha, the second they tied Biden and Santa to the candy cane like that, I was like, "They're gonna parody the climax of Raiders of the Lost Ark, aren't they?"
If I could get the rest of Kentucky to pull their heads out of their backsides we could get rid of old Mitch. However, time may take care of that before his next reelection . I can't believe that heartless soul is from Louisville.
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The blending of so many memorable movie scenes along with the underlying theme, masterfully done, a modern classic. Let's hope this sticks around for a while, not just in the National Film Registry but on accessible media. Kind of like the Rudolph thing and It's a Wonderful Life. So well done, looking forward to seeing it many times in years to come. Thanks to all in its production, you've given some levity and charm to a difficult time.
Why limit that wish to just the country? Hope that all of history to come never sees so disgusting a repeat, as Donald (the Orange-man, Nero-reborn and master of the Oompah-Loompah's) Trump again.
