Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
Presidents Say the Darndest Things
During a “Meet the Press” interview that aired on Sunday, President Trump was asked whether he had to uphold the Constitution. He replied, “I don’t know.”
“Wow, they talked a lot about Biden’s mental decline, but this guy can’t even remember stuff from, like, four months ago,” Seth Meyers said on Monday.
Trump, asked about the economy, also doubled down on his suggestion that children could get by with fewer toys. “I don’t think a beautiful baby girl needs — that’s 11 years old needs to have 30 dolls,” he said. “I think they can have three dolls, or four dolls.”
“Right, think of them like wives: Two, three, four would be a good number.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“All you need to know about the relationship he has with his daughters and granddaughters is he thinks 11-year-olds still play with dolls.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Johnson. It’s a beautiful 11-year-old baby! You did so well in your 44th trimester.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“In response, Pokémon has rolled out their new slogan: ‘Pokémon, Gotta Catch a Couple!’” — SETH MEYERS
“Trump is presenting himself as a Jedi, but his lightsaber is red, and the only way you can have a red lightsaber is by infusing its Kyber crystal with the power of your rage and hate, thereby corrupting it into a vessel for the dark side. Therefore — therefore — every one of those photos that Trump is putting out there, he’s admitting — he is admitting! — he’s not a Jedi, but in fact a Sith Lord.” — JON STEWART
“In one weekend, he upset the two most religious groups of people on the planet — Catholics and ‘Star Wars’ fans.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“The Fourth may be with you, but I’m not. But I do want to extend my congratulations to Jar Jar Binks for no longer being the most despised character in the Star Wars universe.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
