They are doing fine. Don't go there (It's OK, It's bipartisan)

He's an evangelical. He's not a snake handler (three fact-checkers had to be taken into concussion protocol)
Jerry Falwell, Jr. is in trouble. Apparently his wife was having an affair with the pool boy and allegedly Falwell would watch them having sex from the corner of the room. He says he did not have sex himself with the pool boy. He's an evangelical. He's not a snake handler. —Bill Maher
Falwell would allegedly watch his wife having sex with the pool boy from the corner of the room. So at least social distancing was maintained. —Bill Maher
I was watching the republican convention. It was a great week if you love reality shows but hate reality. —Bill Maher
Did you see Trump’s speech last night? There were three fact-checkers that had to be taken into concussion protocol. —Bill Maher
Trump bragged that he had created the greatest economy since man began to walk erect. And the proof of that is that the demand these days for coffins, plywood, rocks, bottles and replacement plate glass has never higher. —Bill Maher

It’s almost like they never made America great in the first place (I’m getting married again, again)
“Mike Pence unveiled Trump’s new campaign slogan, ‘Make America Great Again, Again.’ Make America great again, again? It doesn’t inspire confidence. If your — if your friend said to you, ‘I’m getting married again, again,’ you’d be like, ‘Sounds like that might not last.’” — James Corden

I would find a new plumber — and a new toilet (Baby Jesus Bath Time)
“I didn’t think they could come up with something worse than ‘Make America great again,’ but they did it. Because ‘MAGA’ was an ambiguous call to a bygone era that never really existed. This new slogan sounds like somebody who got hit in the head with a bag of hammers, because what’s implied with ‘Make America great again, again’ is that, at some point during your presidency, you [expletive] up.” — Trevor Noah
“If my plumber said he needed to fix my toilet ‘again, again,’ I would find a new plumber — and a new toilet.’” — Trevor Noah
“So that was Mike Pence’s speech. And I guess we finally found out why Pence always has the permanent squint. Yeah, his own face is going, ‘Are we really saying this [expletive]?” —Trevor Noah
“Mike Pence – a man so boring that during his mid-life crisis, he bought a minivan.” —Trevor Noah

the league would have just put out a ‘Let’s dunk on racism’ poster and called it a day (evil of two lessers)
“And massive props to these athletes for using their platform to bring attention to what’s happening in the streets. Because when you think about it, sports doesn’t stop for anything, so when sports does shut down, people take notice. Like, do you guys remember that time aliens landed on Earth? Yeah, of course you don’t remember, because it was the playoffs.” —Trevor Noah
“I’m also glad this movement was started by the players and not by the league. Because you know the league would have just put out a ‘Let’s dunk on racism’ poster and called it a day.” —Trevor Noah
“Are N.B.A. players supposed to just shut up and dribble or literally fix racism all by themselves? Either way, it feels like America relies way too much on the athletes to do everything. They’re supposed to play basketball, fix racism, sell cereal and date all the Kardashians?” — Trevor Noah
“If we can have a rain delay, we sure as hell can have a police brutality delay.” — Trevor Noah

Now we don't know who won World War II (I didn’t know they kicked it up to voter extinction)
“After watching the Republican national convention, I don’t know what’s going on, but I’ve got chills, I’ve got nausea. It’s either the onset of Covid, or seeing 1,500 people with no social distancing, no masks and no testing packed on to the South Lawn of the White House. I know Republicans like voter suppression, I didn’t know they kicked it up to voter extinction.” —Stephen Colbert
“Before Donald Trump capped the convention with a nearly 70-minute speech, he was introduced by his daughter an American Girl doll just following orders, Ivanka Trump, who boasted about working with her father to pass ‘nine pieces of legislation to combat the evil of human trafficking’. And then I watched him tell one of those human traffickers, Ghislaine Maxwell, that he wished her well.” —Stephen Colbert
“The presidency proverbially changes the occupant. It matures them, it ages them. But Trump doesn’t do any of the stuff that matures you or ages you, like worrying about the American people or feeling responsibility for protecting them or evidently anything else. Looking at Trump in 2016 and now in 2020, I guess it’s true what they say: taxidermy don’t cracks-a-dermy. The last four years are like Trump is Dorian Gray and we’re the picture.” —Stephen Colbert
