Seth takes a closer look at the nationwide protests over George Floyd's murder being incredibly successful in swaying the public opinion and how even military leaders are speaking out against the president's attempts to suppress them.

Great segment! God, it is just insanity out there these days. I can even tell that Seth is having a hard time trying to remain light hearted about it. I think most people agree that Trump has got to go, even before the election, but we just need to figure out how to get rid of him. He is completely unhinged. I'm afraid if he sticks around there won't even be an election. Nothing would surprise me at this point.

Anyway, thanks again!

I've also seen the changes in the late night comedians, it's gotten tougher by the day to make a joke. We've seen the changes in Seth, Jimmy Kimmel and Colbert and especially Trevor Noah. This is frightening and serious stuff. I did notice that Seth looked more haggard since he came back, but he explained at the outset that he looks different since he's now being filmed in high res, which may explain part of it. But, as you said, every time we think that this has to be as bad as it gets, Trump sinks lower and does something more alarming and outrageous - I'm just hoping that those out there who still have a brain will wake up and see his actions as unprecedented and traitorous as the rest of us!
