To keep them in control was not difficult (It was so hard staying alive, staying alive)

“I don’t understand how Trump has never heard of the person in charge of finding the vaccine to the disease that has shut down the entire world — and don’t tell me it’s because he’s too busy. I mean, this is the same man — the same man who says he’s been watching every nightly news show plus CNN, MSNBC in the morning, Fox News on weekend afternoons, and even reruns of baseball. Reruns! Let me tell you something: If you have time to watch reruns of baseball, you have time for anything. Baseball is boring when it’s happening. Watching it in reruns is like watching paint dry through a PowerPoint presentation.” — Trevor Noah

“You know, Trump talks about cabin fever like it’s an actual illness. [as Trump] This cabin fever, worse than any disease we’ve ever had, even worse than the disease from the ’70s, disco fever. It was so hard staying alive, staying alive.” — Trevor Noah

It was so hard staying alive, staying alive (Eh, it’s up to you)

“And even more chaos: after Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the CDC, warned the Washington Post that next winter could see an even worse second wave of coronavirus combined with flu season, Trump panicked, called the claim ‘misquoted’ and brought Redfield on stage to clarify. Redfield’s ‘correction’: ‘I didn’t say that this was going to be worse…I said it was going to be more difficult and potentially complicated.’ Ah, OK, so … it’s not going to get worse, it’s just going to be more difficult and complicated. If only there was one word that could summarize that general feeling …” —Trevor Noah

“Some people are ignoring the risks altogether. I’m sorry, that’s insane – you don’t just get to decide what you think about a disease. No one is in the doctor’s office like ‘Doctor, be honest, is it bad?’ and the doctor’s like, ‘Eh, it’s up to you.’” —Trevor Noah

I've been burned by Samsung before (disco inferno)

President Obama last week said that this year's election is like Dante's "Inferno." Well that's fine, as long as it doesn't turn into a disco inferno. –Seth Meyers

Samsung announced recently that people who turn in their recalled Galaxy Note 7 phones will be eligible for a free Note 8 next year when it debuts. Said customers, "I'm not falling for it. I've been burned by Samsung before." –Seth Meyers

The Chicago Cubs are going to the World Series! The Cubs are playing another lovable loser, the Cleveland Indians. The two teams have a combined 176 years without a championship. To put that in perspective, that is almost as long as a baseball game feels. –Stephen Colbert
