I'm the host, thank you for watching.
I tell you what, it took almost the whole four
years, but donald trump finally got a massive crowd to cheer him
outside the white house. Congratulations to him.
What a weekend. People were dancing in the
streets like ewoks after they blew up the death star.
Darth tax evader has been toppled.
And america responded with a dance party.

house on Saturday, where a reporter from fox news got a
fresh whiff of victory. >> reporter: We haven't seen the
violence or anger we saw in June on black lives matter plaza,
might have something to do with the fact there's pungent smell
of marijuana here. >> jimmy: That's right,
weed can overcome. There were celebrations all
across the country which is unusual.
This doesn't typically happen after an election, but this one
was different. >> having a competent

>> jimmy: Go back, look right there, senator
john mccain, returned from the great beyond to celebrate!
Isn't that something? >> fantastic.
>> jimmy: Donald trump is not accepting
the results of the election. But joe biden is getting
congratulatory calls from former presidents, world leaders, and
even his own vp, kamala harris, who we slowed down to half speed
for the first of -- who knows? What could be many editions of
"drunk kamala harris." ♪
>> we did it! We did it, joe!
You're going to be the next president of the united states.
♪ >> jimmy: Trump may be going,
but we still have a show to do.
Joe biden may be the oldest president ever elected, but he's
also the president with the youngest teeth.
On Saturday, the president-elect reached out to those who didn't
vote for him. He said it's time to stop the
harsh rhetoric. To lower the temperature.
To see each other again. To listen to each other again.
He said we must stop treating each other like enemies.
We are not enemies. We are americans.
Which is a nice sentiment. And refreshing to hear.
But I'm not sure joe understands what he's up against.
The likes of slimy yellevangelist,
kenneth copeland, who gave a sermon yesterday that would make
jesus barf up a loaf and a fish. >> the media said what?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, the media said joe biden's president
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha woo!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. >> jimmy: Well if they don't
have covid now, I guess there's no way to get it.
That doesn't seem completely demonic at all!
The preacher with three private jets?
Laughing in tongues? Meanwhile, our out of touch with
reality-host is not letting go. He is both melting and
doubling down on his claim that the election was stolen from
him. On Saturday morning, the
prisoner-elect wrote, "I won this election by a lot."
which was funny. And then, about an hour later,
all the major news networks called the election for biden.
Trump was not watching tv for a change.
When it happened, he was out playing golf.
There he is, unhappy gilmore. Making the deepest divots of his
life. Team trump is not cooperating
with the biden team. Not only is the administration
holding up the transition, they are getting all the sycophants
on board to question the integrity of the election.
Of course, they aren't questioning the results of the
races in the house and senate. I wonder why that is?
Why would the democrats have cheated and stolen the
presidency, but given up the senate and house seats on the
same "illegal" ballots? Is it like when you cheat on a
test, but purposely get a few wrong just to throw the teacher
off the scent? Are we supposed to believe
there's a universe where nancy pelosi could have sent
mitch mcconnell back to the exotic pet store he came from,
and she chose not to? Some trump supporters took to
twitter to say things like, "if you don't include california,
donald trump won the popular vote."
right. And if you don't count the
murders, ted bundy was a pretty good guy.
One advisor for the trump campaign said the word
"concede" is not in their vocabulary.
Along with a lot of words. And listen, I get that this is
hard for donald trump. Processing this loss is going to
take time. I mean, this is the first time
he's ever failed at anything besides trump casinos,
his airlines, mortgage, trump steaks, trump university,
trump magazine, and donald jr. Eric, et cetera.
They keep saying "give him time."
and we will give him time. He has until January 19th.
Then he's out. Time's up.
On the 20th. If trump really does refuse to
leave the white house, they should just rename it "vietnam."
he'll get out of it immediately. He's not going to win this,
even he knows that, but he also cannot admit he lost, because
he's a poorly-raised little monster who was born a
millionaire. Every other losing candidate for
president found it within themselves to concede, and to
remind our dear leader of that, we combed through concession
speeches of the past, from which, perhaps he will find some
inspiration. Please don't hang his portrait
>> our entire administration will work closely with his team
to ensure the smooth transition of power.
>> the president is my opponent, not my enemy, I wish him well
and pledge my support. >> what remains of partisan
rhetoric must be put aside, god bless his stewardship of this
country. >> I pledge to do my part to
bridge the partisan divide. >> whether they supported me or
president obama, I wish god speed to former opponent who
will be my president. >> nation chose another leader
so we join with us to pray for him and this great nation.
>> we must accept this result and then look to the future.
Donald trump is going to be our president, we owe him an open
mind and the chance to lead. >> if you count the legal votes,
I easily win. If you count the illegal votes,
they can try to steal the election from us, if you count
the votes that came in late. We're looking at them very
strongly. >> jimmy: Please don't hang his
portrait in the white house.
Just smash a mango on the wall instead.
Put his name under it. So far trumpland's bigly idea
for how to prove there was voter fraud is to set up a hotline.
Where you could call in and report shenanigans.
Sadly, that hotline was immediately flooded with prank
calls. Which is a shame.
And no one was more outraged than the president's fourth
favorite son, eric. Who tweeted, "the @dnc is
spamming our voter fraud hotline to bog down thousands of
complaints we are receiving! Wonder what they have to hide?"
good question, eric. This is the hotline number.
(888) 503-3526. And folks, please, for the love
of eric, do not call this number and claim to have discovered a
shoebox full of mail-in ballots with the name bob abooey on
them. Again, the number not to call
is, (888) 503-3526. Keep it and especially don't
share it with people on tiktok, because, what?
Oh no. Too late.

>> jimmy: Tok them up! This was not a prank.
Or maybe it was. I think it may have been.
Did you hear about that little four seasons mix-up?
This is good, so on Saturday, the president
tweeted, "lawyers press conference at
four seasons, philadelphia. 11:00 a.M."
then ten minutes later, he replaced that tweet with this
one, "big press conference today in philadelphia at four seasons
total landscaping 11:30am!" four seasons total landscaping
is a landscaping company in philadelphia.
They do yards and for reasons that are still
unknown, they had rudy giuliani making a speech from there.
And this visual should tell you all you need to know about how
it's going, okay? A big ugly garage door.
Cement wall. A garden hose.
An adult novelty shop right next door.
With booths and everything. This is rudy giuliani at his
rudiest. The former mayor made a grand
entrance at the landscaping place, he had some words to say,
and after he said them, he made a swift exit.
This is the second-most embarrassing thing to happen to
rudy this month. He somehow managed to out-borat
himself. >> I know this city has a sad
history of voter fraud. After all, joe frazier is still
voting here. Kind of hard since he died five
years ago, but joe continues to vote.
If I recall correctly, joe was a republican, so maybe I shouldn't
complain. But we should see if joe is
voting democrat or republican now from the grave.
Also will smith's father has voted here twice since he died.
>> jimmy: Go lay down in your coffin and
close the lid, re-count dracula. So there you go.
Trump's run for president began on a golden escalator and ended
in an alley, next to a dildo store.
Say what you want about them, they know how to bookend a
story. The even bigger news, pfizer
today announced they have been working on a vaccine that is
more than 90% effective in preventing the coronavirus.
That's right, the makers of viagra figured out how to give
everyone a boner again. Thanks.
The ceo of pfizer said the timing of the announcement
coming after the election had nothing to do with politics.
But they did name the vaccine "joebidenol."
they are hoping to have 15-20 million doses of the
vaccine available and approved by the end of the year.
That is great news. I never thought I'd be rooting
for a big pharmaceutical company.
But I also never thought I'd be rubbing purell on my vegetables.
They'd better get a batch of those vaccines to the
white house. Because there is a new, new
outbreak in the west wing. At least five more staffers have
tested positive, including trump's chief of staff,
mark meadows, who was seen maskless with djtj at trump's
post-election party Tuesday night.
And you know who else tested positive?
Our favorite, dr. Ben carson.
Was at the white house that night and now has the virus.
He, by the way, is on the coronavirus task force.
He does usually wear a mask. I
the problem is it's this one. Carson's spokesperson said ben
"is in good spirits and feels fortunate to have access to
effective therapeutics." I'm glad he does.
Donald trump has two black friends, he gave them both
covid. It makes sense that no one in
the white house wears a mask, I would want to die if I worked
there too. Joe biden today unveiled his new
coronavirus task force. He is planning to spend
his first days in office issuing executive orders to try to undo
some of the damage. Basically, biden is going to fly
around the earth counter-clockwise like superman,
and reverse everything trump did.
There is a lot to untangle. And we still have more than two
months to go. There have been so many
"moments" over the last four years, it's hard to remember
even a tenth of it. So much incompetence, so many
lies, one day there will be a ten-part miniseries about it on
hbo, but in the meantime, there is a way to immortalize the many
mistruths and mishaps while also filling your china cabinet with
a historic heirloom that can be handed down from generation to
generation. >> this is an important
announcement, president trump has topped more than 20,000 lies
in office. >> frankly, we did win this
election. >> now celebrate his historic
achievement, with the trump lies commemorative plate collection.
Elegant plates inscribed with the most memorable falsehoods.
Constructed in china but marked made in the usa.
Receive a prevarication every day every month for rest of your

B boyz ii men and then becoming a

You talked about meeting him. >> listen to me, when I was a

in line all day and played hooky, got prince tickets.

It was at the basketball team plays in d.C., been so long,
they changed it now. >> jimmy: Where the wizards

>> wrapped around the building, stadium, blocks long, and kept
selling out. We were crying, but he added
another show, emotional roller coaster.
Finally got up to the front, he added a show, yay!
He must have added like four shows while we were standing
there. >> jimmy: And canceled three of
them later. >> no, he didn't.
Prince in the younger days. I didn't say that.

then do something interesting if you don't mind.

Because they closed down? >> the city where we got
married, they imposed regulations a week before our
wedding to limit gatherings from I guess open-ended to -- they
limited to 50 or less. >> jimmy: That did not work for

cut. >> but everybody understood.

you'll hit it off forever and ever.
>> hope so. Would be cool.
>> jimmy: Congratulations, I think you have good shot winning
entertainer of the year, album of the year.
If you could pick one, which do you want?
>> I don't know, that's loaded question.
Feel like either one, to me, that's not a good answer,
totally dodging here. >> jimmy: It's okay.
>> I'm the guy that's like I feel like I was never supposed
