It might be a historic rebuke, but it will probably be a footnote if another eight Senators don't grow a pair and vote for the Constitution in an override vote.

Keep up the great work, Mr. Colbert and Mr. Kimmel! I know I speak for most Americans when I say you're providing a valuable public service: making us laugh during an incredibly depressing era. What's the saying? If you don't laugh, you'll cry. Mark Twain would love your clever jokes about the Conman in Chief and be proud of you both. Trump may be a clown, but he's certainly not funny like you two.

I LOVE the late-night comics, especially Colbert, Corden, Kimmel, Bee, and Myers. They let us laugh at the corrupt, disgraceful Presidency that we are suffering through. If it were not for these very funny people, we would be even more depressed and disgusted than we already are at the criminal enterprise that is at the heart of the White House.

I must admit Mr. Meyers' comment about Lori Laughlin made me laugh out loud. This week's blue ribbon.

Keep up the great work, Mr. Colbert, Mr. Kimmel and other late-night, talk-show hosts! I know I speak for most Americans when I say you're providing a valuable public service: making us laugh during an incredibly depressing time in our country's history. What's the saying? If you don't laugh, you'll cry. Mark Twain would love your clever jokes about the Conman in Chief and be proud of you both.

So when does Our President get a guest shot on "Arrested Development"?

I love his impression of Steve Mnuchin, I couldn't stop laughing when he said the other night that he was the guy with the pool.

What will I do when Trump is no longer president? I will breathe easier and smile more. I will probably sleep better, too. As for the late-night hosts, they will do as they have done for decades. They will help illuminate the absurdities of political leaders, right and left. They will help us laugh at ourselves while reminding us that most things in life are temporary. Trump's term is likely to end in 2021 (or earlier, God and Mueller willing) but if we're still celebrating in 2024, so be it!

Often enough Steven Colbert and is comedic man who I enjoy watching. Lately though, he seems to have grown out of the individual from The Colbert Report and The Daily Show and became more in-line with the status quo. His interview with Tulsi Gabbard confirms this in my opinion. He asked questions that were meant to in a way smear what Tulsi stands for as well as preach how American is a force for good in the world. It was difficult to watch, especially when it's clear that Tulsi is saying that we shouldn't militarily intervene (she doesn't oppose diplomacy) because of large unintended consequences that can worsen National Security.

I’m thankful for our late night hosts, especially Colbert. They masterfully use comedy to mitigate the daily barrage of crazy and hate coming from Trump and his administration. Trump provides a wealth of fodder for their comedic troughs. Keep up the good work. Keep finding a way to get us through this dark era until we as a country can return to normalcy with a president who is thoughtful, respectful, and intellectually prepared for the challenges of the presidency.
