“And the meeting of the world’s most powerful liberal democracies had a lot on their plate this year, like combating climate change, trying to figure out how to stop corporations from evading tax, and countering China’s growing economic and political influence around the world. They also had to make time to take a group photo where they all look like the white side of a chessboard.” —Trevor Noah
“Joe Biden met American’s oldest and palest ally, Great Britain, including meeting Boris Johnson. Biden reportedly brought him a custom-made bike while Johnson gave him a framed picture of Frederick Douglass printed out from Wikipedia. That is a huge disparity in gift-giving. Biden comes in with a $6,000 personalized bike and Boris shows up with a photo of a guy Biden went to high school with?” —Trevor Noah
“Biden also met the Queen, who was filmed cutting a cake with a sword, something she decided to do because it was unusual. She’ll do anything to shake things up. I feel for the Queen. She’s 95 years old and she’s starting to realize that they’re not going to let her behead anyone ever again.” —Trevor Noah
“At the G7 summit, world leaders were quick to praise Biden while refusing to say Trump’s name; I think they remain traumatized. The bar is incredibly low. People are like, ‘Biden is so much better’ but having anyone is so much better. America could have sent over a dog in glasses.” —Trevor Noah

“A magisterial collection. A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night
of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
