In the aftermath of the recent presidential election, late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert did not hold back their emotions. Both comedians, known for their sharp critiques of Donald Trump, faced a challenging broadcast as they reacted to the news of his victory over Kamala Harris.
Jimmy Kimmel, on ABC, struggled to maintain his composure during his opening monologue.
“Let’s be honest. It was a terrible night last night,” he stated, his voice trembling with emotion.
Kimmel’s monologue was a heartfelt plea, highlighting the perceived negative impact of the election outcome on various societal groups and issues. He lamented the night as “terrible” for women, children, immigrants, and many others who rely on social services and value democratic principles.
Despite his emotional state, Kimmel managed to inject some humor by comparing Trump to a villain from the Star Wars franchise.

NBC’s Seth Meyers, in contrast, chose a more subdued tone, focusing on maintaining a sense of community and resilience. He spoke of the importance of “joy,” even amidst the disappointment of the election results.

It seems that each of them and others have strayed from the purpose of their shows only to become biased critics of an ideology and person they’ve learned to hate. I suggest they go back to entertaining their
audiences with guests that are entertainers so late night television is worth staying up late for. Where’s Johnny Carson when you really need him?

U r so right, I stopped watching any of them. They are there for a purpose not to sway their audience. America has spoken and celebrities are not going to tell us who to vote for. We are not rich like them, it is a struggle to keep working to eat, drive a car, and keep a home. U r there to entertain nothing else.

They don’t know how to entertain. Gutfeld on Fox has more viewers than any of these late night unfunny guys.

The late night circus clowns, and the lame stream media brought this all on themselves. Talking nothing but trash and lies about Trump. So go cry in your soup now, and choke on it. And for thoses idiots that post their screaming attacks? Go check yourself into a mental ward and get help. But good luck trying to cure the brain washed fools.

The half-truths and lies told by these folks night after night have come back to haunt them. Democracy lives and the people in our states have voted. In 2 years there will be another Congressional election and in 4 years another Presidential election. That’s how our system works. I’m very proud of that.
And legal immigrants continue to be welcomed. Regardless, our immigration laws need reform to better accommodate our national needs.
