>> stephen: uhm... >> 2 ston years, stephen. it was 271 -- >> stephen: can we check that out?cker says that's true. jon, we've got-- you can feel better because we've got the election just four days from now. >> i just want to know what is gonna happen. i want to know how much longer we have to keep going through this, where we are in this-- in this marathon. you know? is it on election day, are we at the heartbreak hill? do you know what i mean? that-- all that effort and all that resilience is about to pay off? we're going to cross the finish line and finally be able to exhale. or is this the, you know, half-way point, the 13-mile mark, and when my nipples will stop bleeding. these are-- these are questions i need to know, stephen. >> stephen: well, as for where we are, that depends. what's your finish line? >> the finish line for me is-- is this man not being president anymore and 1,000 people not dying every day from a disease we don't understand still. >> stephen: oh, so the finish line is your finish line. >> yes. >> stephen: okay well-- >> the finish line is the finish

>> stephen colbert. how are you, sir? >> stephen: i'm doing okay. a long time. >> stephen: the last time you were here you said one of the things you liked most when you saw the show is how uncomfortable it was for me to figure out how to greet the guests after going down the two steps. like, do i shake, do i hug? >> it seemed to be the one little piece of behavior that you were struggling with as you were trying to turn yourself into a talk show host, a normal person. >> stephen: okay. >> and i just always noticed-- but i don't think-- it wasn't really completely your fault. i don't think people like that moment. >> stephen: what-- what-- >> there's a lot of options and there's a lot of confusion. and now there's even more. >> stephen: right. and how do you like the zoom? how is the awkwardness of this? does this feel-- >> this stinks. it stinks. you know, we like people. we want to be in front of people. although, you and i, i think, are entertaining in any form. >> stephen: thank you. i-- i would agree with you. >> yeah. >> stephen: as someone wh

>> stephen: hey, everybody! welcome to "a late show." i am your host, stephen colbert. i don't know about you, but i am still recovering from last night's agonizing presidential shout-fest, in which donald trump interrupted joe biden over 70 times while chris wallace tried to stop him like a baby throwing pennies at a battleship. trump was out of control the entire evening. the whole thing gave a new meaning to the term "white noise." but frankly, i don't know what chris wallace was supposed to do. at the next debate, they should just give the moderator a button to bring on the slime. i'm not the only one who despised last night's debate. according to a cbs poll, of the people who watched it, 69% felt annoyed. annoyed. really? evidently, "gouging out my eyes with a grapefruit spoon" was not an option. surprisingly, the very same poll found that 17% of debate watchers came away feeling informed. really? 17% felt informed after watching that? what did they learn? i learned that when they go low, they can actually go much lower. a cnn poll also found that six in 10 say bid

>> stephen: hey, sam waterston. >> stephen! you're doing some kind of clip show episode of my show, or something? >> you got it, big guy. >> stephen: tonight was supposed to be a rerun. i don't know who signed off on this or who even let you in the building during covid, but i did not agree to-- >> oops, dropped call. anyway, as i was saying, we now turn to stephen colbert's monologues from march of this year. this was when the coronavirus took cold in america, forcing people to quarantine in their homes. and colbert was faced with the biggest challenge of his professional life: doing monologue jokes without a tie. take a look. da-da-da-doo-doo. >> stephen: hey, everybody! hi! welcome to my bathroom. i'm your host, stephen colbert. you're watching a very special social distancing edition of "the late show"." the big story tonight is, all of you people, people all over america have hunkered down in their own houses to ride out the coronavirus. the c.d.c. is saying this might go on for the next eight weeks, so get comfortable. tr

i was i like, stephen colbert, and stephen colbert, and stephen colbert. like, i was so nervous.n: oh, right, yeah. >> i have to call you out on something. >> stephen: hold on on for one second. i have to get closer to the tv so i can see it. what's going on with my groin there? >> i don't know. but this is satire. >> stephen: yes, but this is trump now. people have taken this exact image and put trump's face on here. >> stephen: i know. it has been very upsetting. >> re-becoming the greatness we never weren't. trump's tag line now is, "make america great again, again," which sounds look a pitch for "the colbert report" that they decided not to do. basically you created this. >> stephen: i was merely evil john the baptist showing the way. to the savior of evil. i-- one of the reasons why i don't want to do the character anymore, is i would have to actually leapfrog how stupid he is. >> do you feel there's a segment of society that doesn't understand satire? >> stephen: yes. >> it seems they embraced it completely. >> stephen: satire is habitually not that popular. >> damn it. i p

>> stephen: welcome to "a late show." i'm your host, stephen colbert.ies and gentlemen, i rarely say this, and i never mean it, but we have breaking news. just moments before i walked into the studio i'm in right now, i learned something shocking. two years ago-- you may remember, the new york times published an op-ed called "i am part of the resistance: inside the trump administration" by somebody known only as "anonymous." people have been guessing who this ever since it was released. well, this afternoon anonymous was revealed and it's miles teller. star of "whiplash," the beloved "fantastic four" series, and the upcoming "top gun" reboot. i have no idea how miles teller got such intimate details of classified information-- maybe tom cruise told him-- but the trump administration has got to be reeling right now from-- i'm sorry, what? and i'm being told it's not miles teller. then who is it? miles taylor? who's that? ( laughter ) the guy from d.h.s. who left like a year ago and already endorsed joe biden? well, that's not news. that's ridiculous-- ca

>> stephen: welcome one and all to "a late show." i'm your host stephen colbert, and we are live.nywhere? live following the final presidential debate of 2020. tonight was donald trump's very last chance to make his closing argument. please ignore what he's like and everything he's ever done. and tonight i'll tell you if he pulled it off in tonight's brand-new last ever setting the 2020 presidential debate. old man slap two. lled it off in the pursuit to mute! >> blah, blah, blah, blah. blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. blah, blah, blah. blah, blah, blah. blah. blah, blah, blah. blah. bah, blah, blah. blah, blah. ( crashing sounds ) blah, blah, blah blah blah. blah, blah, blah blah blah -- ( crashing sounds ) >> stephen: he's fine. now, having seen tonight's debate, there are -- >> blah, blah, blah blah blah. >> stephen: no! back, back! ( laughter ) it's impossible to keep him off the furniture. tonight had its ups and downs, but the highlight for me was that we'll never have to watch donald trump debate ever again. counting the 2016 republican toni primary, we've watched him do that

>> stephen: hey, everybody! welcome to "a late show." i'm your host stephen colbert. you might notice when the show is open these days i'm leaning back in the chair a lot. i'm either very comfortable in this job these days or i no longer have the core strength to sit up. let's figure out which it is. folks, the coronavirus pandemic continues to rage in america's hot zone: 1600 pennsylvania avenue. and reports say the west wing has turned into a ghost town. previously, the only ghost haunting the mansion was mike pence. he's at least a zombie. why else is he attracting all those flies? things have gotten especially tough for white house correspondents like cnn's joe johns who had this happen to him during a broadcast. >> get! >> there he is! (roaring) the damn, frickin' raccoons, man. god. again! that's the second time! jesus! >> i guess the trap's not working. >> right. hey, man. that frickin' raccoon came back. it always comes around right about when i am going to go on tv. ( laughter ) >> stephen: poor joe johns! stuck there at the white house with that disease-ridd

>> stephen: hello! welcome to a "late show," i'm your host stephen colbert. the luck just man on television. julie andrews is with us tonight. the presidential election is only five days away. to remember this, i wrote it down. but it looks like everyone's remembering this year because early turnout is at record levels and according to odds-makers, the 2020 election is the most bet-on event in history. that, i don't understand. are the stakes not high enough already, that you've got to bet on it, too? that's like your skydiving instructor saying: (as instructor) "before we jump, anyone want to place a bet on whether the chute opens? ten bucks, let's make it interesting." now, covid-19 is the biggest issue in this election, next to daddy issues. and covid cases are exploding all over the country, which brings us to tonight's installment of our possibly-running-'til-2022 segment, "catch a third wave: endless bummer." let me wash over you! oh, oh, sick! aaahhh! get out, get out! currently, cases are rising in more than 40 states, and when it comes to the west an

>> stephen: hey, everybody! welcome to a "late show"! i'm your host stephen colbert.just key up here. mmm! oooh, tepid! i thought that was going to be hotter than it was. hello. so nice to see you. speaking of hot -- have you lost weight? you look amazing. we haven't been together for a week, and i've missed so much has happened. so much has happened today. so much has happened in the last few hours. honest to god, you guys back me up, i'm not entirely sure what we're going to read even though we've read all of it because we had to change the order of everything minutes ago. the presidential election is only 15 days away. i can't wait for this to just be over. it's like an upcoming surgery, in that i'm planning on being anesthetized for the event. you know who could use some painkillers? donald trump. because his poll numbers are starting to look pretty bleak. (knocking) knock on wood. salt the wood. beetlejuice, beetlejuice, beetlejuice. so, in the run-up to the election, trump is planning to hold "two to three events per day." brilliant. be on tv everyday to remind

thank you, stephen. >> stephen: i'm really happy you're here. thing that bums me out is i wish we had the entire live audience at the ed sullivan theater so you could feel the thunderous roaring applause that you could literally lean against when each of you walked out on stage. i can only glow at you. but they would actually give you the love that you deserve. aaron, "west wing" fans are giddy that you put together this "west wing" special. but you're being adamant that this is not a reunion. what-- what does that mean that it's not a reunion? >> that's right. it's not a reunion show. you know, reunion shows have a certain stigma attached to them that you feel like it's going to be a "very brady christmas." so over the years i've resisted the opportunities to do a reunion show. but this opportunity came along to do something at a crucial time for "when we all vote." and so, while it is a group of people coming back together after having not been together for a while, it is not a reunion. it has a purpose. and what we've done-- my producing part

stephen colbert! >> stephen: hi, everybody. nice to see you. got a little camera push tonight. welcome to "a late show." i'm your shows stephen colbert let's get right to the breaking news: there was a debate two days ago. it's been 48 hours, and i've rinsed almost all the blood out of my mouth. tuesday's debate was a colossal waste of time that diminished everyone unfortunate enough to have watched it, just ask moderator and man demonstrating how much control he had over the debate, chris wallace. yesterday, wallace described the experience as "a terrible missed opportunity." kind of a tame way to describe an unmitigated disaster. i'd love to see you cover the hindenburg. >> and the frame is crashing to the ground not quite to the morning mast. oh the missed opportunity! ( laughter ) even trump's inner circle was shaken by the president's awful performance. as cnn's dana bash reports: >> i will tell you one person who is familiar with his debate prep, anderson, said they prepared him "to be aggressive but not to be jason from 'friday the 13th'

it was painful, stephen. >> stephen: i think you're right.ere who saw that-- and i imagine the first debate is usually the one that gets watched the most-- i think people were in pain to watch that because, as i was just saying to our friend jon batiste, it was absolutely embarrassing for america to see that. seeing the president of the united states not being able to shut up for just two minutes. i don't want to say shut up. just be quiet and allow someone to speak for two minutes. it seemed clear because he knew his ideas could not win. he could only win through-- well, through domination or aggression. >> yeah-- >> stephen: how do you think biden did? >> well, first of all, there's a sense with donald trump it's almost like, putin doesn't have to go through these things. why do i even have to be here? and i'm just going to try to bully and dominate the night. what i liked about joe biden is he kept trying to turn it away from the two men on the stage and back to the american people. at one point, he did this impassioned plea, "this is not

>> stephen: yeah! welcome to "a late show." i'm the stephen colbert. the 2020 election is less than two weeks away. i'm so excited that i'm not getting any of the sleep i normally don't get. tomorrow is the second and final presidential debate, for which we will be live, ladies and gentlemen, right there. tune in to find out which terrible group trump won't condemn this time. ( as trump ) "people who don't toss in for pizza because they say they don't want any but then have a slice when it comes, stand back and stand by. guys who hover right behind you in line when using the urinal, await my orders. neo-nazis, as you were." every four years, around this time of the election, people start to worry about an october surprise. today, we got more than an october surprised. we got october appalled, courtesy of trump's personal lawyer and man who has to constantly gnaw on tree trunks to keep his teeth from growing through his bottom lip, rudy giuliani. giuliani appears in the new borat movie, starring sascha baron cohen, who will be my guest on "the late show

stephen colbert's zoom interview with president donald trump. >> stephen: mr. president, thank you so much for granting me this exclusive pretend zoom interview. >> hi, perhaps you recognize me. >> stephen: i do! you're that guy from the jeffrey epstein dance video. big vice presidential debate tonight. how did you feel watching mike pence? >> i didn't feel good. >> stephen: what got you through it? >> drugs. >> stephen: and? >> various other-- drugs. >> stephen: sure, whatever gets you through the night. tell me about the care you received at walter reed? >> we have the greatest doctors in the world. >> stephen: and they helped you feel better? >> i heard about this drug. i said let me take it. it was my suggestion. i said let me take it. >> stephen: so we have the greatest doctors in the world, but you diagnosed and then healed yourself? >> i did. >> stephen: but whose fault was it that you got sick? >> it was china's fault. >> stephen: and whose fault was it that you didn't wear a mask? >> you know, china's fault. >> stephen: and whose fault that you spread

>> stephen: mm-hmm.essional phonprofessionalphony like him i interviewed him once. >> stephen: what was that like. >> i was interviewing him as ali g., and the producer of the show was a handsome well-spoken english man in a nice tweed jacket, and donald trump assumed he was going to be the interview, and the producer said, no, actually, this is the interview, it's called ali g, and i remember donald trump look at me, and i'm wearing a sweat suit and, hey, what is your name? how is that spelled? are you called donald? yeah, donald. and his face dropped. he was immediately furious that he was going to have to speak to somebody from a kind of lower class borough rather than this astute producer. he sat through the interview, it was about seven minutes. publicly he will say i was the only guy who saw through it. he didn't see through the interview. he answered all the questions completely normally. in fact, i asked him, you know, how long have people been doing business, and he answered, well, human beings

>> stephen: hey, everybody. welcome to "a late show." i am your host, stephen colbert. this-- this is a very unusual episode of the show. because, well, this is a very unusual day. we weren't actually even going to do a show today. i wasn't going to even be here right now. but, then again, a lot of people are in places today that they did not expect to be. because, in the early-morning hours, we learned that president trump and first lady melania tested positive for covid-19. now, say what you will about the president-- and i do-- this is a serious moment for our nation, and we all wish the president and the first lady of the united states a speedy and full recovery. news on trump's condition has been sketchy. this morning, the president's old friend, dr. ronny jackson-- remember him? he said the president and the first lady are going to be okay, tweeting, "they are both fine and completely asymp- totic. the president is in very good health and has no comorbite-ees." yes, he doesn't have a single symp-tot! and there's nothing wrong with his bite-ies, let alone his more-

and russia what i think we're seeing today stephen i want to write about in the book is the free world is up against these authoritarian enclosed systems that are actively promoting those systems as an alternative to a democratic governance in which people will actually have a say. and how their government and in our free market economic systems which free people up who have entrepreneurial spirit to help build a better watch for them and generations to come well general a lot of people are framed you know along the lines you know you have that america was this bastion of liberal values democracy commitment to minority rights commitment to justice and a lot of folks are looking at us from abroad and saying wow america may not look a you know may look a little wobbly on those fronts you know the president and his comments about you know leaving office perhaps you know not peacefully if he were to lose the election or you know concerns about you know voting and whatnot and i'm just like we don't look like that chaining example on the hill in the eyes of many in the world are you able to

i can read you the quote from stephen miller. i have been working remotely and self-isolating, testing negatively every day including yesterday. today i tested positive for covid-19 and i am in quarantine. that's the statement from stephen miller. it goes to show you how serious the situation is. you have a situation where people are testing negative and positive for coronavirus. the white house has been relying on these rapid tests for so long. we all know we have been reporting this for months now they can be notoriously unreliable and that may be the case now. i can tell you, anderson, this is the work from home white house right now. there are large sections of this white house that are empty and almost like a haunted house where you don't find staffers where as dana bash knows there are areas of the white house that are typically teaming with staffers. the common areas are totally empty. the area of the west wing are almost totally empty except for a couple of staffers. what they are telling everybody right now, if you suspe

and we'll start with stephen. >> okay. so i think that the ceqa may have become a little bit convoluted. it was meant to be protecting the environment and ensuring the well-being of people, but i think it's kind of become a little bit weaponized at times. people use it to stop other businesses and really burden new start-ups from ever happening. so one thing i'd like to see is if there's a way to simplify the processes, if the community has the ability to speak on behalf of their community if there's a new business coming in. i feel like we can do a lot to simplify the process, reduce the time that a business spends in approval, and really, i think that would go a long way to improving the economy, at least more small business start-ups. >> thank you, stephen. next will be myrna. >> ceqa is a good tool, it's an important tool. not only does it help us protect the environment, it also helps protect our historic resources. it can be cumbersome and lengthens the time that a project takes to completion, but i am a firm believe

tonight we have learned that stephen miller -- stephen miller is the president's senior adviser and speechwriter. stephen miller has tested positive for covid-19. so, where does that bring us in the tally? think about this. think about if you went to a business and they told you, hey, 17 people here have been positive. would you go inside that business or inside that house? because at least 17 people directly connected to the trump white house currently have the virus, and i'm not even counting all the cases that could be associated with this. just trump staff and closely connected politicians. that's it. and then it could just fan out. imagine how many people those 70 people have been in contact with. and so on and son on and so on. stephen miller said this -- pay close attention -- about this virus. that was back in july, a comment that has not aged well. >> what we were doing, first of all, was mounting the largest national mobilization to fight the china virus that any country has had since world war ii. >> mm. china virus. likes to say that. well, how well did that mobilization that he clai
