Guest Host Kumail Nanjiani on Trump Bashing Clooney, Biden at NATO & a VERY Honest Graduation Speech

Guest Host Kumail Nanjiani steps in to talk about the ESPYs, Cricket terminology sounding like sex acts, 7-Eleven’s free Slurpee day, President Biden’s “high stakes” press conference at the NATO Summit, Trump bashing George Clooney after his op-ed in the New York Times, a woman in Birmingham turning 108, 70% of people thinking that jokes written by A.I. are funnier than those written by humans, and he delivers the most brutally honest graduation speech you’ve ever heard.

Focus on policies, actions and results, not Gaffes. At least he corrected himself end of Putin Zelensky mixed up. He said "he was too focused on beating Putin" so he mentioned his name and then apologized to Zelensky there and then. Biden always made gaffes for a long time. Even before he became president. Trump also mixed up much more many times, like Nikki Haley for Nancy Pelosi, believing now he is running against Obama, and so on. Not a surprise. If Trump with his legal issues and a criminal is fit for president, Biden is definitely fit too given this little mistake comparison standard.
