>> good night. >> w >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, dr. phil mcgraw. cnn's john king. and music from maren morris. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: oh, that's me. hi, everyone, i'm jimmy, i'm the host. thank you for watching. thank you for joining us on cma night. a special hello to those keeping the party going after the cmas tonight. we have something fun with chris stapleton later on. [ cheers and applause ] and he's going to join us tomorrow night. best wishes to our veterans on veterans day. thank you for your service. and sacrifice. [ cheers and applause ] i hope you felt appreciated today because you are, by us, at least. our president, donald trump -- this kind of tells you all you need to know about him. this is joe biden's first tweet of the day.

today we honor the service of those who have worn the uniform of the armed forces of the united states who are proud veterans. i will be a commander in chief who respects your sacrifice, understands your service, and will never betray the values you fought so bravely to defend. and this was donald trump's first tweet today. we will win. actually, it was a retweet of himself. [ laughter ] it's hard to believe that in 75 short years we've gone from this to this. but we have. trump did emerge from his bunker today. he visited arlington cemetery to lay a wreath at the tomb of the unknown loser -- i mean, soldier. those were his words, not mine. that was his only scheduled event of the week so far. he's busy doing everything he can to maintain his tiny cheeto-like grip on the presidency. several top defense officials, our pentagon, they've been ousted in favor of loyal trumpsters. the directors of the fbi and cia are rumored to be on the chopping block.

some are saying that trump is turning the administration into a banana republic, which i don't know, to me it feels more like a baby gap. [ laughter ] but obviously trump installing these loyalists or people he thinks are loyalists in key spots at the pentagon raises fears that he's plotting something. we may soon find out the answer to the question, can a coup be pulled off by people who spell it "coo"? [ laughter ] team trump continues to claim there was widespread voter fraud even though there's no evidence to support that. he's filing lawsuits left and right. this is a transcript from a courtroom exchange between trump's lawyers in pennsylvania and the judge. the judge asks the trump lawyer, are you claiming that there's any fraud in connection with these 592 ballots? trump's lawyer responds, "to my knowledge at present, no." then the judge asks, are you claiming that there's any undue or improper influence upon the electorate with respect to these 592 ballots?

trump's lawyer says, "to my knowledge, not at present, no." so okay, then what the hell are you guys doing here? [ laughter ] even donald trump's lawyers have no evidence of voter fraud. [ laughter ] but they're throwing all sorts of nonsense out there to see if any of it floats. one of their most outlandish claims is dead people voted in droves in pennsylvania. the only dead person who voted in this election is rudy giuliani, okay? [ laughter ] and he's registered in transylvania not pennsylvania. election officials in pennsylvania have found no credible instances of fraud but don't tell that to our future ex-president. he's turning local officials, public officials in many cases, into his punching bags. his sycophants are demanding the resignation from the republican secretary of state in georgia. trump himself lashed out today at the republican commissioner of philadelphia. he wrote, a guy named al schmidt, a philadelphia commissioner and so-called republican, rino, is being used big-time by the fake news media to explain how honest things

were with respect to the election in philadelphia. he refuses to look at a mountain of corruption and dishonesty. we win. rino stands for "republican in name only." that's what they call any republican who won't go along with trump's b.s. trump was a democrat like 12 years ago. [ laughter ] and this guy al has obviously had enough of this schmidt. >> i realize a lot of people are happy about this election and a lot of people are not happy about this election. one thing i can't comprehend is how hungry people are to consume lies. and to consume information that is not true. >> jimmy: well what are we supposed to eat? the halloween candy is gone. [ laughter ] we have 70 days to figure this out. i once had a rat in my attic wouldn't leave. i finally got him out by putting an oreo in the trap. seems like maybe that could work here too, right? [ laughter ] anyone phoned nabisco?

you know what trump reminds me of? that lady who claims she found a finger in the chili at wendy's. her name was anna ayallah. in 2005 she was eating at a wendy's in san jose, claims she found a severed finger in the chili bowl, it was a big story. there was a multi-pronged investigation. along the way they found out anna, like our president, had a long history of suing companies for no good reason. and when the investigation was finished, it was clear that the finger in the chili, like these allegations of widespread voter fraud, had been planted. the finger belonged to her husband's co-worker. he lost it in an accident. she cooked it and made the story up. she wasted everyone's time, burned through a lot of taxpayer money. you know what happened to anna? she served four years in prison. or one term as president. [ laughter ] and on top of that, she was banned from wendy's for life. that's what they should do to punish trump, ban him from wendy's for life. [ cheers and applause ] you'll never drink a frosty again! here's another one that gives

you an idea of what we're dealing with. yesterday trump supporter and former lehigh county commissioner in pennsylvania, a guy named dean browning, tweeted, i'm a black gay guy and i could personally say that obama did nothing for me, my life only changed a little bit. i want to stop there. if you look at his profile picture, yeah, seems like his life changed a lot. [ laughter ] he's transformed into a straight white man. so he posts this. it seemed fairly clear he forgot to sign out of his real account and into his fake account, the account he might use to comment on his own posts, his gay black guy account, which we all have. [ laughter ] but browning said, no, no, no, that wasn't it. he claimed he was quoting a direct message that was sent to him by one of his followers, dan purdy. dan purdy coincidentally responds to a lot of dean browning's tweets, coincidentally. then, stick with me, this is one

of the dumbest twilight zones ever. dan purdy posted this video backing browning's story. >> hey, guys. my name is dan purdy. and i am indeed a gay black man. the message that you saw on dean's twitter was posted -- i don't actually know how it was posted but i did send it to him because i had a problem with how people of my race and sexual persuasion are treating donald trump. so what's the big deal? i sent that message to dean. dean accidentally posted it somehow. and that's the end of the story. >> jimmy: right. that would be the end of the story. except for that person's name is not dan purdy. in fact, there doesn't seem to be a dan purdy. that man has been identified as bill holty, who is believed to be the nephew of patti labelle, of all things. [ laughter ] this is like the time "la la land" pretended to be "moonlight." it's a mystery. [ applause ]

nice work, dean browning. if trump pulls this out, maybe he'll let you run the cia. [ laughter ] this is a crazy time in history. and good luck trying to explain any of this to your kids. guillermo, does your son benji have any idea what's going on? >> guillermo: no, he doesn't have no idea. >> jimmy: it's hard to explain the events of the past week or the past four years to your kids so we came up with a way to do it. we took audio coverage and paired it with an episode of "paw patrol." this is what happens when ryder and his teal of pups meet the big bad wolf blitzer. >> i'm wolf blitzer in the cnn election center. we're minutes away from the first results. let's go to john king. >> what we're waiting for most is the city of philadelphia, joe biden getting 80% of the vote, and they still have votes to count. >> we can now project the winner of the presidential race. joseph r. biden jr. is elected president of the united states. denying president trump a second term.

>> but while i may be the first woman in this office, i will not be the last. >> i will totally accept the results of this presidential election if i win. if you count the legal votes, we did win this election. >> lie after lie after lie. that was a hot mess inside a dumpster fire inside a train wreck. >> this is an embarrassment to our country. >> jimmy: floating away in his own hot air, wouldn't that be a poetic ending? there's a major disturbance at the cma awards, a number of the nominees had to stay home because they tested positive for covid. lee brice, members of lady a, florida georgia line, rascal flatts are in quarantine. some of them had to cancel. usually when this many people get sick in tennessee it means they undercooked the squirrel. [ laughter ]

[ laughter ] you haven't known me my whole life. but when i was young, when i was a teenager, everyone, people would look at me and say, you should be a model. you should be a movie star. but what i really wanted to do was sing country western music. but then i heard a song, and it changed the course of my life.

>> jimmy: welcome back to the show. music from maren morris on the way. not since the heyday of a little alien named e.t. has an index finger guided us through an emotional journey like our next guest. he is the maestro of the magic wall on cnn, host of "inside politics" six days a week too. please welcome the "chart-throb" himself, john king. [ cheers and applause ] hi, john. >> good to see you, jimmy, how are you? >> jimmy: i love -- are you chained to that wall? why are you at the wall? [ laughter ] >> the bastards put super glue on the floor, i'm stuck. >> jimmy: it's kind of comforting to see you there. it's like seeing han solo in front of the "millennium falcon" or something. >> i'll take that. >> jimmy: how are you doing? >> doing all right. it's been an exciting, somewhat exhausting, exhilarating week. now we're in the -- you think you have election week in america, it's normally election night. you think election week and you'll be done. as you noted last night, there's

the crazy guy on the subway platform who's not very good at math and there we go. >> jimmy: you're very good at math. is it daunting to do math on live television? >> i went to six years of catholic school and i always thought the nuns were driving me crazy, now i owe them a great debt of gratitude. you don't realize it at the time that it actually might help you someday. >> jimmy: you feel the sting of that ruler, suddenly you know how to add everything. are there counties you will miss after this is done? are there areas of the country that you've grown fond of pointing at them for like eight days in a row now? >> we can both joke about this and be serious about it at the same time, because this is the gift. this is my ninth presidential election. my early ones i traveled all the time. i've been to most of these places and i love them. but i'm a map geek because of this. and like vigo county, indiana. i'll pop it up for you here. all the way back to 1956, jimmy. [ cheers and applause ] back to 1956, they have picked the presidential winner -- the

streak is over. donald trump carried vigo county this year. so they gain something else for fame now. the pence vice presidential library, maybe, will go there. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: just what trump needs to hear. if trump finds out he won in vigo county, we're never going to get him out of the white house. that magic well. is the magic wall really magic? >> yes. >> jimmy: it is, okay. [ laughter ] >> how can i say no? that would blow up everything. >> jimmy: i always feel like you're the only one there who knows how to work the wall. for me, i'm the only one at home that can get the television on, so i'm valuable. they keep me around forever. [ laughter ] you seem to have mastered that wall. do you practice? do you dream about it at night? >> sometimes. truth. [ laughter ] fact check, mostly true. look, we unveiled this technology in 2008, and we've updated every cycle since. i think it's become -- you know, to the flattery i received on social media and elsewhere, i'm grateful for that, don't get me wrong. but i think a lot of it is for people in a high-anxiety election, this is a comfortable

pair of slippers. they're used to it, they trust it, i trust it. it's a great tool. i learn a ton. i've done this, ninth presidential election. every night on election night when there's live data flying in, red one second, it turns blue, i'm meeting america right here. >> jimmy: i didn't realize how much you loved that wall until just now. [ laughter ] you really love that wall. >> i have issues, yeah. >> jimmy: i remember when you debuted the magic wall. i remember making a lot of fun of the magic wall. and having a real good time with the wall. and now, yeah, you're right, the wall has become like somehow the window to the election. and the way you handled it, i have to say, i think you did a great job throughout the whole thing. >> thank you. >> jimmy: you were -- [ cheers and applause ] i think you were aware of what we, the viewers, were going through. and you tortured us so gently. [ laughter ] just releasing these little bits of information. the way you were talking, remember? these results are here. you spoke very succinctly, you spoke very calmingly. it was like you were calming a

horse in a lightning storm. [ laughter ] >> i like the analogy. look, this was the most difficult election ever. because of the different rules. because of the pandemic. right? some people voted by mail. lots of people did. some people stood in line and voted early. other people showed up on election day. what you were seeing, it's not a mirage. people talk about a red mirage or a blue mirage. it's not a mirage, it was real, but it wasn't contextual. some states, election ballots coming in first. other states, mail-in. at one point joe biden was ahead in ohio and texas and democrats were like, yee-haw! i had to tell them, calm down, we're waiting for votes. that was both fun for me, but i got in trouble for saying it was fun, just because this thing teaches me a lot and i want to tell people, calm down, early innings, you've got to wait till the end. >> jimmy: when you're on air, are you aware that everyone is posting about you nonstop, all the time? >> no. i don't get to see much of it on live television, obviously. occasionally i'll get a text from one of my siblings abusing me. [ laughter ] that's when i know there's something going on, on the internet.

the first night i got home 3:30 wednesday morning, get two hours' sleep, come right back. but i was responding to emails and sending out emails with questions in the battleground states that hadn't been called. i could see some of it and i realized, number one, it was global. the interest in the election was global. the most gratifying thing was the interest of young people. i have a tiktok fan cam and i'm on jimmy kimmel in the same week. [ cheers and applause ] my 9-year-old is going to think i'm cool, for about 40 seconds. >> jimmy: i always knew you'd have a tiktok fan club. >> i do. >> jimmy: saturday cnn called the election for joe biden. are you part of that decision? who makes that decision? if not you? >> we have a great team of people on the decision desk. they're our green eyeshade people. they're fantastic. they spend months studying the data, preparing the statistics. i'm not part of it. i used to do that in my old job before i switched to television. on live television i do my thing, they're doing theirs. i trust them. we knew saturday morning we were

getting close. i never know exactly how close. we knew we were getting close. then we had some results come in from philadelphia and the city. i'm doing my thing and they say, keep going. i'm like, okay, i keep going. they say, wolf, wolf, wolf! i turn to wolf, and there it was, the magic wolf blitzer. >> jimmy: wolf gets to make the call. you're not allowed to jump in and make the call before wolf? >> no, that would be like a mutiny. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: exactly. >> they frown on that. >> jimmy: and are you and wolf privately, like during commercial breaks, going, when are they going to make this call already! we want to go home! >> if you're watching you could see some of that. i would say, i know you're frustrated, we're frustrated too. i was not lying, that was not fake news, that was coming right at you. let's do this. but for a serious point, we have a great team. when i first came to cnn, wolf was the senior white house correspondent, i was the new guy. being in this room with wolf was actually a hoot, it was a lot of fun. >> jimmy: i don't know if you know this, wolf looks exactly like my father. [ laughter ] literally, for me it's like watching my father call the election.

[ laughter ] anyway, i think you did a great job. i enjoyed watching you. thanks for drawing it out so politely and calmly. and i think you guys did a terrific job. now go get some sleep, and maybe spend a week or so pointing at a cocktail menu or something on the beach somewhere. [ cheers and applause ] >> i like that idea. >> jimmy: john king, everybody. "inside politics" weekdays at noon, sundays at 8:00 only on cnn. thanks, john. be right back with maren morris!
