A Viewer's comment on the 12-26 edition
Republicans don't care what he does. If he killed someone on 5th Avenue, Republicans would say the person had it coming. They all belong in jail. - Chelsea Handler
and
Hillary Clinton could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and do nothing, and they would say she shot somebody. - Brian Krassenstein
***
If these get put together (with a John Mulaney), we get a statement closer to reality:
Trump stands on 5th Avenue, and someone randomly gets shot 3 blocks away while he's standing there. In reality, he did nothing, but he tweets he shot the victim because they were a Homeless Liberal Gay Haitian Muslim Immigrant with Aids (who was new in town). Hillary Clinton, who was in Wisconsin at the time, gets blamed by the GOP and 5 senators call for an investigation of her because the emails will prove she did it. - Gretchen
When do the Make America Great Again ankle bracelets come out? - Randi Mayem Singer

The pair retain their titles this year, although by much narrower margins than in the past. Obama edges out Donald Trump, 17% to 14%, while Clinton edges out Michelle Obama, 9% to 7%.
If I were Hillary my next book would be titled Y'all Can Go F-ck Yourselves.- Jeff Tiedrich
