Late Shows Unpack 'What Could Be Most Devastating Day' Of Donald Trump's Presidency

Updated Thu, Nov 21, 2019, 2:47 AM

The comedians of late-night TV all riffed on the same theme on Wednesday.

Namely, European Union Ambassador Gordon Sondland’s testimony during a public hearing in the impeachment investigation into Donald Trump in which he directly implicated the president and members of his administration in the Ukraine scandal.

Samantha Bee of “Full Frontal” claimed to have “impeachment fever.”

“The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” imagined Trump’s impeachment hearing audition:

Jimmy Kimmel said it could have been “one of the most interesting and important days in the modern political history of our country” as he recruited comedian Jeff Ross to jump into character as Sondland.

“The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert broke down Sondland’s bombshell in the latest installment of “Don and the Giant Impeach.”
