[Rhiannon, thanks so much for these links which I would otherwise miss. Any chance you could you also link the wry Seth Meyers?]

I started posting the late night monologues of the ones I watched - because they were a relief after a day of upsetting Trump news - a couple of years ago. I figured we needed their humor here too these days and I know that everyone doesn't stay up as late as I do. I generally post The Daily Show and Colbert and here's the latest from Seth Meyers:

I note the progress trends, - and humor to gloss over the rough spots.

Thanks so much for Seth.

Offbeat Seth captures the short/short term mindsets of the trumps so well. Loved his joke of mobster trump placing the incriminating dead body evidence, not hidden in the trunk, but in the passenger seat to qualify for using the express car lane.
