"I thought we were better than this. I really did."

"And the fact that we're not doesn't make me feel all 'right' and 'superior'. It makes me feel... sad."

"Because I know that, at the end of the day, ordinary people are gonna be the ones who are gonna have to pay for all of this. Because they always, always do."

– Steve Carell _(The Big Short)_

"The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe; for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them."

Elect me once. Shame on you.
Elect me twice. Shame on the whole damned country.

This is the funniest comment section I’ve ever seen

[muhupalam]

Thank you. This is why we watch you. I was so nervous about what could be said or how do you articulate the what happened and you’ve done it so succinctly. Thank such simple words but what relief to hear say what was needed and to thank Kamala and Tim. Thank Stephen.

It sickens me greatly that the country wouldn't choose a woman over someone who assaults them. AGAIN.

To quote a wise old man " democracy is for the people by the people, but the people are stupid"

[papabear]

I’m a 72 year old gun-toting Caucasian man, and a registered Independent — who has never felt more sickened, saddened and ashamed of my country and scared for the future as I am right now.

We are in deep trouble, people. Deep, deep bottomless trouble.

We are now Germany, WWII style. Give it a couple of decades, and people will be asking, “How did all of those Americans who voted and supported that stupid, egotistic maniac not know what was going to happen? How could they have been so blind and complicit?”

Take good care, folks. We are in for the nightmare of our country’s entire history.

Stephen thank you for being a light in shining darkness these past long years. Please we need you these next four years. Please stay safe for these next four years.

[peachesthesordid]

Thank you, Stephen. For everything. For your optimism, for your humor. Thank you for not pulling punches. Keep making us laugh in times of need.

[enriquetorres]

I love this section. Nothing but tears. 😂

[annalopinski]

That last bit about Jimmy Carter made me tear up. I wish he could tell me she won too ❤🥺

[PAVEL-JAKL]

Thank You Ms. Harris for everything you did, we came up little bit short but you did amazing job in such a short time 🥺

[VonNothias]

I hope we all know that it doesn't matter who is in the 'top job' because this is a systemic problem -- greed. We have allowed many of our economic sectors, to take advantage of the American people. It's disgusting and frightening for the future of our country. My husband and I will be retiring in the next two years n another country. We are absolutely worried that SSI will no longer be funded. we'll have to rely on his pension, a 403 (b) and a very prolific lnvestment account with my Abby Joseph Cohen my FA. Our national debt is bloating and expanding every month.

The scary thing is he has more power than any other president in the last 100 years, house, Senate, Supreme court. No one should have that kind of power.

[andrewc]

Hi Stephen. I watch your show regularly from NZ and am sharing your horror and grief at recent events. This show definitely helped. As will your future shows. Keep doing what you’re doing.

[norcalusc]

“Can we just tell Jimmy Carter that she won?” 💙 I too thought of President Carter today and his determination and enthusiasm to cast his vote in this election. I think Stephen has the right idea. 😢

[akadacat]

Oh. I hadn't thought about President Carter. Shit. Now I'm crying again.

[wkmwnji]

Thank you for making me laugh through my tears, Steven. You’re a good guy. Please keep doing what you know is right.
