11:02 pm
your confusion but i too am confused with your confusion as those who are watching right now are so confused. >> trevor: thank you, news. >> i'm so informed now. you realize these people interrupted our day just to tell thaws they don't know what is going on. like look, even the camera man is like i'm so confused, i will just show you a picture of the car, you see the wheels? yeah. like if i wanted to hear people guess what is going on, i would just spend all day at the barbershop and just be like i heard rosenstein was fired, i heard he was agoing to avoid being fired. y'all think rosenstein could beat jorved an? -- jordan? anyway it turned out that what happened with rosenstein was basically nothing. he still has his job. and so do all those news peoplement in other news, next time you take a selfie, you might want to make sure your insurance coverage is up to date. >> los angeles times reports hikers chasing likes on instagram are breaking limbs and
11:03 pm
needing to be rescued. the los angeles county sheriff's department search and res caw team conducted 681 missions last year, a 38% increase since 2013. they say the single largest factor por that increase is people posting videos of extreme activities online. >> okay. i foe falling off a mown it tain because were you taking a selfie sounds stupid but on the other hand, those rescue piques get mad likes, gow got to admit. in my opinion we should just leave them there, just be done there like yeah, what do you think now am i'm afraid of dying. it's like are you afraid of died dying. >> no, just my phone, it's about to die. >> and by the way before people come out trying to judge millenialsk don't forget van goa lost an ear peanting a selfie so this is nothing new. all right, finally, for all those nervous parents who worry every time they put their kids on the school bus in the morning, you were right. >> the latest now on a school bus driver caught on camera
11:04 pm
allowing students as young as 11 to steer the bus. parents are demanding answers. the driver faces charges. >> okay, first what we have to do is put on the brakes, there you go. >> can we do this every day. >> i'll let you know. >> what are you looking at is a child behind the wheel of a school bus thursday, the tall bus driver of jo dnd az dree mcate showing her and tear two others sto drive t by the time she arrived at the bus barn police were waiting arresting her and charging her with neglect of a department. >> she was charged? what a bench of haters that driver made school fun, do you think those kids will miss school ever again. those cade kids are like can we do this every day. and as a bon tus is jb training wrrk do you think the next job-- are come bus drivers are coming from. not all 6 they them are going harvard. they are like trevor, what in they cash the bus, well, they
11:05 pm
didn't trk seems to me they were doing a good job. you read about scal bus crashes all the time, how many of those were driven by kids, none? so i rest may case. all right, let's move on. sorry. >> the supreme court, back if the day, the nomination process was as exciting as a ben carson audio book. for instance, in the 1800s when justice george sheeras was being confirmed the biggest controversy was if he had magical metal claws, but that was thenment because we are now in week three of the brett kavanaugh hearing and the entire country has been shaken up. there is so much drama in these hearings that even the real house wives of atlanta is watching this saying goddam, this sin sain. when we last checked in, brett kavanaugh had been accused of sexual assault by a woman he knew in high school which according to the gop means he's the real victim here. >> in the very near future,
11:06 pm
judge kavanaugh will be be on the united states supreme court. (applause) >> don't get rattled by all of this. we're going to plow rate through it. and do our job. >> what am i supposed to do. go ahead and ruin this gay's life based on an accusation i don't know when it happened, i don't know where it happened. i'm just being honest. unless there's something more, no, i'm not going to ruin judge kavanaugh's life over this. >> wow, ruin his life? since when does not being appointed to the supreme court count as ruining someone's life. like lindsay's acting like if brett kavanaugh doesn't get this job he has to go back to the diamond mines in sierra leone. (laughter) either way, either way, lindsey braim says that unless there is something more, he's not going to change his mind. well, guess what, something more. >> overnight a second woman coming forward accusing brett kavanaugh of sks all misconduct. dns deborah ramirez was a classmate of brett kavanaugh as
11:07 pm
at yales amount of cord together new yorker she says she remembers a drunken party where kavanaugh invaded her personal space as he exposed himself. >> cav gnaw who was also intoxicated pulled down his pants and exposed himself to her, he allegedly put his again tales in her face, she disfntally touched them when she pushed him away. something she said she didn't want anything to do with. >> trevor: that's right, a second woman has accused brett kavanaugh of sexual misconduct. and if these allegations are true, then there seems to be a parynt of behavior and the gop supreme court pick is in trouble. also, i don't understand why guys are still whipping out diqs, i know this happened a long time okay, but that is my point, why are guys whipping out dick, no party has made better by pulling a dick. that party was boring but then a dick came out and i had the time of my life. keep it away. (applause) now kavanaugh is pushing back, right. he is saying that he he never whipped his penis out at that college party. and as for the first accuser, he
11:08 pm
has proof that he wasn't even there. >> we're just getting some new reporting from the new york times that kavanaugh plans to submit a calender frr from 1982 that he kept with no such party marked on it, ren addo is that a strong piece of evidence. >> trevor: renado, i will take it from here. if the man has a calender, then the case is closed. because everyone knows if it's not on your calender, then he never did shit. koment on, man, a calender just says what you plan on doing. not like you actually did, it's like a vision board, like my calender says zumba at 6 a.m. every day, all right. but have i never gotten up at that imtoo. hell, i don't even know what a zumba s is it a bird. sounds like a bird. glum-ba, glum-back i don't know it is also pretty bagsy that kavanaugh as a judge would bring up as old alden der as his defense, like your honor, couldn't have done t you look at
11:09 pm
my calender t says no crime all day, all day, no crime. (applause) so we good. and look, like i'm going to honest with you. it feels like most people have already decided the merits of this case based on where they stand politically. all right, in this climate that doesn't surprise me. what is interesting, is seeing how far some republicans are willing to take their support. a show of hands, how many of you believe judge kavanaugh when he say this didn't happen. >> i believe him. >> i believe him. >> nobody, nobody that has spoken ill-will will pim, everybody that speaks about him, this guy is an alter boy, a scout, because one woman made an allegation, sorry, i don't buy it. >> everyone has spoken well of him, except the people who haven't spoken well of him, but i understand what this woman is saying, but here is the thing. you don't need to buy her story. but you also don't have to
11:10 pm
accuse dr. ford of being a liar just because you like your boy brett over here. all right, i get why you like him. don't get me wrong, is he a con srve tiff judge and he leaks like a guy whoive goes postage stamps at christmas in fact he looks less like a party animal and more like a dad who would call the cops on the party animal, i get it and you may know him as a boy scout but don't forget kavanaugh college roommate says that he was frequently incoherently drunk. so there is another side of him, a possibility that he did some of these things. and maybe he was so drunk that he forgot. though according to some republicans, even if it did happen, it's time to move on. >> in the grand scheme of things, my goodness, there was no intercourse. there was maybe a touch. can we-- really, 36 years later she is still stuck on that, had it happened? >> trevor: wow, wow. maybe a touch? that's a novel way to describe a guy pinning a 15 year old girl to a bed and putting his hand over her mouth. she makes it sound like
11:11 pm
kavanaugh trapped her in a room just to brush some lint off her shoulder. no, that is a superbroad definition of touch. like hey, did you watch the canelo fight where he touched the other dude in the face until he bled, that was superweird. i get why republicans are doing this, right getting five conservative justices on to the supreme court is something they've been dreaming of for four years so they will do anything to get it done. even if it means normalizing sexual assault. >> we are talking about a 15 year old girl which i respect, you know. i'm a woman. i respect, we're talking about a 17 year old boy in high school with testosterone running high. tell me what boy hasn't done in this high school, please, i would like to know. (laughter) (cheers and applause) i don't want it to brag but
11:12 pm
that's-- that's not normal. i mean i have heard of lenient parents but this is some next level shit. what is interesting is in tha in one focus group we've seen where the republican party is in a nutshell. our guys a saint. she's lying about what happened. but if she is telling the truth, it probably wasn't so bad. and even if it was so bad, everyone does it. so who cares. and you know what is amazing to me, is that all of this is happening today. very significant day because if you look at my calender over here, and you go to see today's date, will you see that it says get the [bleep] out of here, man. we'll be right back. (cheers and applause) look around. with artificial intelligence, we are not crawling or walking. we are flying. microsoft ai helps an architect

11:24 pm
(applause) welcome to the show. >> thank you. >> trevor: congratulations on the phenomenon that is to all the boys i've loved before. were you already a very successful young adult novel writer but you have to admit this move wree on netflix has taken it to the neck level. has your life changed in any dramatic way? >> no. >> trevor: okay. >> more instagram followers, i guess. >> trevor: that's everything. >> that's everything, yeah. >> trevor: that's a major thing, jenny. i feel like yeah, totally. >> yes. >> trevor: let's talk about the story and the book and i think what people have been connecting with. i am not a young asian girl. spoiler alert, i know. but i found that i wasn't alone in connecting with the story in this film it really is a love story that brings back everything we associate with high school and life and maybe even things we deal with today
11:25 pm
in society. do you think the movie did justice to the book. >> i think. so i hope. so i feel like the book is all about that kind of warmth and being cozy at home and being with friends and family and first love and i think the movie does capture that. >> right. >> you chose to be a part of the story and thats with one of the conditions and included in that is you said you wanted laura jeern's character to be played by an asian girl because that is who was in the book. why was that so important to you? >> you know, that is why it took so long to get madement because people didn't understand why that was important. and for me t was like that was what her spirit was. she was asian american and it it didn't have anything to do with the plot which is why people were confusedment because they were like well, you know, as long as the actor can, you foe, get the spirit across, then you don't care about age or race. and i was like but her spirit is asian. so it is important. and you know, it's really about, it's not her whole identity but it is a part of her identity. >> trevor: a lot of the times
11:26 pm
people think that inclusion in stories is about just telling the story of the color of the people in the movie. and so when studio executives said to you oh, but she doesn't have to be asian because she's not doing asian things, you fell like it was about more than that. >> i mean i've never seen a movie, a teen movie shall very few romantic comedies, even, where the lead was asian. so to me, i wanted taken age girls to have that experience. >> trevor: right. >> that i never got to have. >> trevor: and it's connected with everyone, and what i love about the story is how authentic it is. i feel like we all experience romcoms when we were younger and at some point american pie became about like screwing pies and things like that and then it became very frattish for a long time it really chaked what we saw as a romantic movie. this has taken back and connected with people. do you think you know where it has been so successful. >> i think people want to see a love story.
11:27 pm
people want to feel warmth and again cozy. right now the world is very chaotic every single day. and it's nice to just be at home and make some cocoand sit on the couch and just be chilling and netflixing. >> trevor: and netflixing, whatever that means to you at home. whether you netflix or whether you don't, that's up to you. you can netflix. tons of people on netflixing, i know this is the first book of many that will be turned into a movie, thank you so much for being on the show, i appreciate you. the book, to all the boys i've loved before. it's fantastic and is available now and the move yoo streaming on netflix. jenny han, everybody. we'll be right back.
