Trump’s approval ratings here at home have plummeted to new lows, and Seth Meyers checks in to see how Trump is handling his well-deserved unpopularity. We find that Trump has made unprecedented strides in pissing off the rest of the world as well, and not least, Trump has focused upon picking fights on Twitter.Trump may have done more damage with our allies in the past few days than the Blitz in WW2. Unfortunately, the image of the United States is linked with Trump – so they may hate us as well as the Orange gasbag. Thanks Obama.
Seth covers the week with hilarity and the accuracy we’ve come to expect from so-called comedy shows..After reading John Oliver’s piece on the Paris Accord, I think it’s important to add that the reason for Trump’s refusal to sign comes down to the most basic element…And I should have thought of it myself.
We now know with certainty that the refusal to sign the Paris Accord had absolutely nothing to do with climate change, and everything to do with a handshake. According to the Washington Post : “Hearing smack-talk from the Frenchman 31 years his junior irritated and bewildered Trump.” Macron didn’t give him a gold medal or a sword either. Although even Russia signed the Paris Accord, faithful friend Vladimir Putin is at Trump’s side, to recite – in the most spooky rendition of the song ever; “Don’t Worry Be Happy.”
