Hey, if it walks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, it could be anything! (let’s add another hundo)

At a campaign stop in New Hampshire over the weekend, Donald Trump said immigrants were “poisoning the blood of our country”. Many pointed out, accurately, that the term “blood poisoning” was used by Hitler in his manifesto Mein Kampf. But his sycophants on rightwing TV are once again trotting out the same excuses they’ve already used to dismiss Trump’s worst offenses for years now, he added, pointing to the Fox News host Brian Kilmeade, who chalked up outrage over Trump’s comments to people overreacting. They’re not even trying to do that thing any more where they say ‘what Trump really meant was … ’ and then translate his fascism into more polite words. They’re basically saying: ‘Hey, if it walks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, it could be anything!’ —Seth Meyers

Well, after marrying his cousin, giving a press conference at a landscaping company and almost masturbating in the Borat movie, Rudy Giuliani has finally slipped up. The verdict against Rudy Giuliani in the Georgia election workers’ defamation case awarded $148m to the plaintiffs, well above what they were asking for. They basically took the maximum, and put a 1 in front of it. Which if you ask me, is the funniest possible choice. They took one look at Rudy and said: ‘There’s no way he can afford to pay $48 million, so fuck it, let’s add another hundo.’ —Seth Meyers
