Guest Host Lamorne Morris on Biden Dropping Out, Trump vs Kamala & White Folks at the Cookout

Guest Host Lamorne Morris talks about his Emmy nomination for “Fargo,” Joe Biden deciding to drop out of the Presidential race, the new choice for Democrats appearing to be Kamala Harris, her husband Doug possibly becoming “first man,” a new video from Biden about what led to his decision, and he provides some etiquette tips for those white folks lucky enough to get invited to the cookout.

I love that Jimmy uses guest hosts, something that no late night hosts in the modern era have done (no doubt afraid of another Leno/Carson situation.). But it's really fun to see so many random people show up.

Ladies and gentlemen, we now have a political race of: Prosecutor vs Convict Hope vs Fear Forward vs Backwards It's about to get real

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

EVERYTHING is on Kamala's side, when you put it like this! There's no legitimate reason for her not to win in a landslide of historic proportions against the absolute worst candidate ever. It's insane that the election will probably be close, anyway, even if she will probably win. But, maybe the polls are wrong and a blue tsunami will overtake America the same way Labour defeated the incumbent Conservatives in the UK.

[@tinarhoades3178]

In large part we find ourselves in this mess, due to the DNC’s political malpractice, by refusing to offer a robust Democratic primary season with candidate debates. If they had done so, we would have realized much earlier that Biden was having difficulty defending his record and articulating his vision for the country. Media exposure from the debates would have engaged the voting public. It's also likely RFK, Jr. would have retained his Democratic Party affiliation, instead of providing Dems with another obstacle in their effort to defeat Donald Trump. So, great planning DNC/corporate lobbyists! The DNC’s Democratic primary tactics were shortsighted at best and undemocratic at worst. Either of Biden's primary challengers (Williamson and Phillips) would have wiped the floor with Donald Trump in that debate. I can't believe I've wasted my time and dollars on this party that can't seem to avoid nail biter elections every four years, due to their incompetence.
