Beaches open — no sharks in sight (double thumbs up)

“On Sunday, The Denver Post published a poll saying John Hickenlooper would lead other Democrats in the Colorado Senate race by 51 percentage points, which shocked Hickenlooper — he did not know poll numbers could have two digits.” --Stephen Colbert

“And he’s put a lot of thought into this, and he’s taking the idea of dropping out seriously. In fact, last weekend, Hickenlooper hopped into Senator Michael Bennet’s car to discuss his impending decision. Bennet listened to Hickenlooper carefully, then thoughtfully replied, ‘Who are you?’” --Stephen Colbert

“Trump is supposed to be consoling people in a hospital, and I think we all know nothing says ‘I’m sorry for your loss’ quite like the double thumbs up.” --James Corden

“Despite major Wall Street losses yesterday and global fears of a recession, President Trump tweeted today, ‘Consumers are in the best shape ever, plenty of cash, business optimism is at an all-time high.’ And then the mayor from ‘Jaws’ tweeted, ‘Beaches open — no sharks in sight.’” --Seth Meyers
