Republicans Admit Trump Lost Debate to Harris, Trump Whines About Fact Checking: A Closer Look - Late Night with Seth Meyers

Late Night with Seth Meyers

After the last presidential debate, a dog came up to me, big strong dog, tears running down its snout, and it said, "Sir, woof!" And I think about that a lot. So true. So true.

[sherinameless]

JD Vance says the story about immigrants eating pets in Springfield must be true because people are calling his office and saying that people told them it happened. So I called the Ohio State Police and reported an incident of statutory sofa assault that I heard about.

Other countries saw the debate too. Trump hasn't been this internationally humiliated since his appearance at the United Nations.

[ginettevalin]

OMG Seth is on fire tonight. This episode has to be nominated for some award.

[coffeeshangarworkshop]

Look, Look, LOOK...Trump is a man of very few words, and he uses them often.

[olorin]

I would have never guessed that Kamala’s favorite band was Smashing Pumpkins.

[FallenOne]

I can't believe Seth *still* hasn't mentioned the greatest pause in debate history: "This...former president..." was *glorious* and far more respect than Ttump deserved.

[Tay.Tay.the.Tyrannical]

Your little Seinfeld bit was absolutely PRICELESS! 😂😂😂 EVERY impersonation was spot on!

[AlisVolatPropiis]

“This has been a closer …..” laughed so hard. The call backs are savagely genius!!!😂

[fakerating]

The best parts of the debate is simply watching Kamala's reaction on the side by side picture, when Trump is saying the batsh*t crazy stuff, which was every sentence... Kamala's reaction was the same as all of the sane people who believe in facts: "what the heck are you talking about..."

History warns us to be wary of a leader who. (read to bottom)

1. Pretends to be a man of the people but detests working men and women.
2. Claim's not take a pay cheque while in office
3. Acts like a deal maker but easily breaks promises
4. Ignores experts but is said to be "seduced by himself" during his own speeches.
5. Calls for opponents to be locked up but frets about getting convicted himself.
6. Manipulates the media for personal gain but attacks the lying press as enemies.
7. Vows to root out corruption but abuses official powers.
8. Claims to have the best lieutenants but surrounds himself with sycophants.
9. Relishes supporters violence but keeps enough distance to avoid charges of incitement
10. Knows small lies aren't believable but "big lies" become gospel.
11. Builds his cause around a pledge to make the country great again, While threatening its very foundations.
12. Calls his rivals vermin to dehumanize them.

This is a description of Adolf Hitler, drawn from biographies of the man.

1:38 "Let's not overthink it." -- Their problem isn't overthinking, it's underthinking.

"Nobody sawr it!" LOVE IT, SETH!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[SpaceForceCommander]

Stinky stepped on every rake that Harris put in front of him.

[nsas]

I've never heard of a debater that invades the spin room after a debate to get his last word in. It was killing him to remain quiet. Wow. What a piece of work.

[Tenly]

The approach she seemed to employ was to use the first 1.5 minutes of her 2 minutes to talk about her plans, her policies, etc - and then the last 30 seconds to push Trump’s buttons and throw him off kilter so he completely forgot what he was going to say and started defending his rallies or screaming that people were eating our pets! It worked brilliantly and it should be the go forward strategy for debating Trump.

[marquisdelafayette]

Him claiming he “won” is icing on the cake. 80 years old and anytime he loses at anything his tried and true method is acting like a toddler and throwing temper tantrums blaming everything and everyone else and claiming it’s “rigged” against him.

But also simultaneously saying that it’s perfectly okay if it’s rigged in his favor.

So in his mind he can never lose… which is so pathetic.

[antoinetteserrano]

OMG how fragile can his ego be to put a reporter on the spot to get a room full of people cheer him on. Just pathetic 🤦🏽‍♀️

[tarasalvi]

Whoever cut all those scenes together for the end clip is a genius!

[ashleyhope]

The low the bar that is consistently set for Republicans is infuriating & insulting 🤨
