West goes to Washington
Kanye West's visit to the White House on Thursday has become a panacea for late-night TV hosts. As Jimmy Kimmel said, "jokes do not write themselves – or should I say, they fact do not write themselves before today, when Kanye West visited the White House. "
At the oval bureau's television meeting, Mr. West spent 10 minutes discussing hydrogen jets, his admiration for President Trump, and what Mr. West felt was the duty of the media to positively cover the president.
"It's as if Trump is sitting in front of his Twitter account that is born." – JIMMY KIMMEL
Trevor Noah stated that it seemed that the tables had returned, while he was watching West through a monolingual freewheel and that the chair was sitting, listening, silent and almost jaw thrown up .
"I really enjoyed seeing Kanye make Trump feel the way Trump makes us feel every day." – TREVOR NOAH
"It must have been so confusing for Donald Trump because you realize that the only other black guy he knows is Ben Carson. So now, he says, "Blacks are the quietest, sleepiest, talkative and maniacal people I know!" TREVOR NOAH
But at what price does the humor come from? Jimmy Fallon hinted that the president seemed more interested in the photo shoot than by the effects of Hurricane Michael, who hit the Florida Panhandle this week.
"The president spent the day with Kanye West and Kid Rock was also present. Meanwhile, people in Florida were like, "Do not worry, we'll just handle this hurricane ourselves." JIMMY FALLON
At the same time, others have expressed concerns about West's mental health. At the Oval Office meeting, he claimed to have been "wrongly diagnosed" with bipolar disorder, but his loved ones told People magazine that he was not taking medication prescribed by a psychiatrist.
Do we need an "upside down wall" now?
Noah expressed his amusement after the authorities discovered a sophisticated 30-mile tunnel under the US-Mexico border. The tunnel, built by drug traffickers, was equipped with solar energy and a ventilation system, as well as a railroad.
"It's so impressive: an illegal Mexican drug tunnel basically has a better metro system than New York. And, in a way, less drugs. "- TREVOR NOAH
"Right now, Trump is like," We need a wall upside down, guys! "" – TREVOR NOAH
"I also liked the way the tunnel used solar energy. It was like a good idea. It was almost as if the drug cartel had seen the latest climate report, and they said to themselves, "Man, we have to do our part, man. I do not want my children to grow up in a white marble mansion and a pet tiger with no ozone layer, man. " TREVOR NOAH
A YouTube feeling brings its message
Kimmel introduced Lynzy Lab, a Texas dance teacher whose song "A Scary Time" became viral after Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed at the Supreme Court last weekend. The song satirizes Trump's suggestion that today is "a very scary time for young men in America." He made this remark amidst the fallout of Christine Blasey Ford's testimony, in which she suggested that Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her.
Lab sang about the threats that are constantly weighing on women in America, and then ended with a call for voter participation in the midterm elections.
The bits to watch
At Olive Garden, even Post Malone becomes a family.
Jaboukie Young-White, the latest contribution from "The Daily Show", explained why young people did not vote – and why Noah did not have the opportunity to call themselves young.
