The Iowa caucuses are coming up and yesterday, Lindsey Graham criticized Donald Trump and Ted Cruz and said choosing between them is like having to choose between being shot or poisoned. Graham said supporting Jeb Bush is like choosing to be slowly suffocated by an expensive pillow. –Jimmy Fallon

Donald Trump’s inaugural committee is actually encouraging protesters to show up on Friday, saying, quote, “We’ll give you cookies and Kool-Aid.” Then Republicans in Congress were like, “Actually, we drank all the Kool-Aid.” –Jimmy Fallon

Still recovering from yesterday’s Oval Office Battle Royale
between Trump, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and the
corpse of Mike Pence. He looks fresh. They ice him down
every night. He’s like salmon. Donald Trump is trying to
put a positive spin on Donald Trump’s performance. But
one person’s not buying that: that’s Donald Trump. Because
according to witnesses, Trump “Stormed out of the Oval
Office and threw his briefing papers across the room.” Oh,
No! Now how is he going to read his briefing? Witnesses
say that Trump was mainly frustrated with Chuck Schumer
saying that “His old sparring buddy got the better of him.
Schumer had goaded him into it.” Schumer got Trump but
using Trump's own personal kryptonite: Opening his mouth.
Trump said, “Chuck, you want to shut down the government.”
Then Schumer said, No sir. You want to shut down the
government.” Then Trump said, “Yes I do. Checkmate.”
I have only seen negotiating that good one time before. It
was between Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. “Rabbit Season!
Duck Season! Rabbit Season! Rabbit Season! Duck Season!”
Fire! --Stephen Colbert
According to administration officials, Trump has been snappish with aides most of the week. Miffed in part by so many ceremonial events not related to him. Aides added that Trump was impatient for the memorials to end, but expressed pride in himself for remaining publicly civil. That’s how far we’ve fallen. We’ve gone from “1,000 points of light” to “Congratulate me! I didn’t eat nachos off the casket!” --Stephen Colbert

“Can you imagine – can you imagine! – what things would be like with Donald Trump at the helm right now? I mean, put aside everything else – have you heard him talk lately? He sounds like he’s muttering to himself while sitting under his favorite tree at the old folks home after getting his morphine drip topped off.” —Seth Meyers
“Trump as president during the Russian invasion of Ukraine would be scary for many reasons, one of which is Trump keeps giving us a glimpse as to how he would have responded. And as usual it has that unique Trump blend of being both terrifying and incredibly stupid at the same time. In a speech over the weekend to Republican donors in New Orleans, Trump said the US should put the Chinese flag on F-22 jets and ‘bomb the shit out of Russia’ in retribution for its invasion of Ukraine. He definitely gets his ideas from cartoons. I mean, this is a slightly stupider version of Bugs Bunny dressing up as a sexy lady to distract Elmer Fudd. [As Trump], ‘We put the Chinese flag on the planes and if that doesn’t work, we paint a tunnel on the side of a mountain.’” —Seth Meyers

Facebook is testing a new group phone call feature that will let you talk on the phone with up to 50 friends at once. If you want to try it, you go to Facebook, you click on “Features,” and then select “Living Nightmare.” –Jimmy Fallon
Today was also bitterly cold in the Northeast, with lows in the single digits. And I cannot stress this part enough, okay? Do not leave the house unless you absolutely need to buy weed. --Jimmy Fallon
