Trump is actually the oldest president ever, WTF!

[@screeningmimi]

I know where you're coming from, but you've got to rethink it. Pence is next in line. We call Pence "Trump's life insurance policy." Even maniacs with a gun don't want to 'fire' Trump and 'hire' Pence.

[@TadRaunch]

That was always my biggest concern about Trump. Well, I wanted Trump to lose mainly because I wanted to see his fanboys be butthurt, but he didn't lose, so the next worse thing he can do is die and have Pence take over. By god I hope old Trumpy pulls off the next 4 years. Who knows, he might actually be mediocre.

[@portablemp5]

TadRaunch Pence is literally much worse than Trump. You Clinton supporters really need to do your research. But then again, Clinton supporters being misinformed, ignorant children that can't think for themselves is the reason why Trump won in the first place.

[@Shayzek]

We must make a PSA to Trump would be assassins to tell them they need to get Pence first.

[@TadRaunch]

portablemp5 I'm not a Clinton supporter. I'm definitely anti-Pence, but as far as the main candidates go I'm mostly indifferent. One of the best possible outcomes of Clinton winning would have been the meltdown of /r/the_donald. But like I said I am prepared to support Trump, especially if that means keeping Pence away from the Presidency at all costs.

still don't understand the use of the words liberals and conservatives when referring to which party you support. Surely in this day and age everyone under 60 should strive to be liberal? Change is inevitable and wanting to move backwards or stay where we are is just confusing to me

[@grumblur]

I never claimed he would create those jobs (sidenote: I didn't vote for Trump, I'm not even american). I'm talking about what the candidates stood for. Very few voters on either side really went over the candidates plans, the masses go for the overall message. If one candidate says he will get the jobs back from overseas and claims to work for the average Joe and the other candidate want's to continue on the current path and mostly focuses on minorities, can you really blame Joe Average who just wants back the full time job he used to have at the local factory for voting at the candidate that says he can help? Again, I'm not saying Trump can actually bring back those jobs, but it's ridiculous to rage at voters who want change for not voting at the candidate that they saw would just continue on the path of Obama that so far has brought them nothing. Of course the financial crisis wasn't Obama's fault, but nonetheless the financial recovery under Obama hasn't benefited this middle class one bit. In fact wealth in this demographic has stagnated to levels last seen in the 80s.

[@N54B30BMW]

askjiir I still haven't seen any proof that if you are an actor that you have to have a certain opinion. This is just an idiotic theory. I repeat: You have to show a source where you get your information from. Otherwise it is just nonsense! Oh and by the way John Cleese is British so I doubt he will be part of this "forced-opinion" thing in Hollywood. He can have any opinion he likes. Just like everybody else.

That is what Trump did, saying the election was rigged influenced people to believe and vote in his favor. Reverse psychology is more explicit than it is implicit in this case.

[@monmothma3358]

I agree. Also, who was really the crooked one??

[@BrentWigginsWords]

Mon Mothma Here's the thing. Hillary's emails. If she had nothing to hide, why were they deleted? Trump's business ventures and taxes. Why does he continue to do shady business and avoid paying his tax returns? Either candidate wasn't too favorable in my opinion.

[@monmothma3358]

+Brent Wiggins But the thing is, although Hillary was flawed, it was nothing like Trump's flaws. How anyone could compare Hillary to Trump is beyond me. Those emails - that's it. That's basically all they've been able to pin on her. "When the Bush administration was discovered to have erased millions of emails illegally sent by 22 administration officials through private, RNC-owned accounts, in order to thwart an investigation into the politically motivated firing of eight US attorneys, just one talk show covered it that Sunday. When Mitt Romney wiped servers, sold government hard drives to his closest aides and spent $100,000 in taxpayer money to destroy his administration’s emails, it was barely an issue."

[@BrentWigginsWords]

Mon Mothma Even though Hillary is less severe than Trump, the corruption for her is more implicit. It's still potentially corrupt, we just don't know to what extreme. With Trump, it's fairly evident how corrupt he is. Hillary's level of corruption however is arguably more so, given the content of the emails is either questionable or damning.

[@monmothma3358]

Brent Wiggins But that's speculation. She was exonerated for the emails. That should tell us something. And like I tried to show with my examples of Bush and Romney, she's been very unfairly treated. Personally I think the slander and demonizing of Hillary have gone on for so long people believe it even though there's been countless investigations and STILL no proof. It's a shame. If given the chance, she could have done a good job.

[@redlion145]

You missed my point. Every news source runs incorrect stories from time to time. My point is that CNN will try to correct mistakes, while the "news source" of your chosen bias wouldn't retract a story about Obama being Hitler, or a confederate flag story after a white nationalist shot a bunch of people at a black church.

"He appears to be outfitting a pirate ship...." If only John Cleese knew how prophetic he was being: Trump has made DeVos head of Education, who vowed to dismantle pubic education and give the money to charter schools, he has made Rex Tillerson, the head of Exxon Mobile, Secretary of State, he has made Pruitt, who shut down his own environmental office in Oklahoma and has sued the Environment Protection Agency several times, the HEAD of the EPA (with suits against the EPA still ongoing), and has made Rick Perry the head of the Energy Department (including overseeing our nuclear arsenal); he has made Mnuchin Secretary of the Treasury, who was one of the most notorious predators during the 2008 when he headed IndyMac that gave out predatory loans that wound up foreclosing on the elderly. It's like he has deliberately set up his administration to hurt Americans as much as possible to personally profit. And we voted for that. This pirate ship has already set sail, and none of us has the right to complain. Putin got the best President Russian hacking could buy. John Cleese exactly predicted what was going to happen.....

[@samhand8270]

2022 and we’re still waiting for that bombshell report about Trump’s Russian ties to come out…. Seems like every investigation came up with nothing and that the whole thing started with a Hillary Clinton operative lying to the FBI about Trump tower servers being linked to the Kremlin. And the FBI just held on to that information for 4 years so that the media could endlessly report on it. But I’m sure you’re well aware at this point that you were lied to and I’m sure you’ve recanted every baseless claim you’ve made about this on the Internet, right?

Why did you feel the need to include (cough) right after Fox being mentioned. It's because out of that list, Fox is the media outlet which tends most towards the right & therefore the only channel having a pro Trump narrative, correct? Lol. At this point, it's pretty much obvious to anyone reading your comments. Please do keep continuing to imply how none biased you are by mainly focusing on the extremist Trump while having failed to even consider looking into the evidence proving the 3 decade long corruption behind the other main candidate .

John Cleese is starting to look a bit like Mr. Creosote, Conan should have offered him an after dinner mint "It's only waafer thin".

[@jackreynolds9675]

Uuuugggghhhh these guys are the bessssst nobody else if funny in comparison

[@Salinas1al]

Ha!

[@naruto00nix]

the US is not accusing russia of exactly what they are doing themselves? so many examples of this, that i dont even know where to start XD

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

"the US is not accusing russia of exactly what they are doing themselves?" Straw man?

[@naruto00nix]

Joseph Scott did you watch the video before replying to my comment? the US is using the same straw man tactics which john cleese is pointing out as one of KGBs basic principles.

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

You're making up something to disagree with. A "straw man." Conan and John didn't say anything about the U.S. never doing that.

[@naruto00nix]

Joseph Scott i was pointing out hypocrisy which is present in US media at all times.

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

"All times," huh?

[@thuder2]

I love Conan and he said he wants for america to come together. But having everyone on your show talk about how trump is bad is the opposite of what you are saying Conan. Please this is not helping us grow as a nation only separate. Keep your content what it is and don't bait yourself into viewbate..

[@simpsondraws]

He asks his guests for their opinion, you want him to make them lie? He's an entertainer first and foremost

[@thuder2]

or not ask them at all. If there was no election he wouldnt ask and the content would be different

[@psydrab]

He could be riffing on Trump's narcissism for the entire episode and have a mountain of material left-over. His restraint is apparent.

[@HardmanAudio]

right wing people don't tend to create stuff or work in the media though

[@youfoolwarrenisdead6400]

Virtually all celebrities have the same position as Cleese on this. All actors, comedians, etc. anyway.

[@collybeans586]

Some wisdom.

[@teemue]

Merchandise? You mean like golden sneakers?

[@cjh516]

Trump is Martha #TheAmericans

[@monmothma3358]

Haha yeah good one

[@shmupshmuppewpew5260]

This.

[@gigimc]

brilliant!

[@UndeadSon]

As much as I love and respect Monty Python and John Cleese, dare I suggest the "russophobia" people like him keep sowing in the west, could well be more dangerous than anything president Trump will (or is by law allowed to) do. Also, Putin was never the head of KGB, AFAIK.

[@tombranch2261]

He was head of the FSB, which is the KGB under a different name. Furthermore, with Russia actually invading its neighbors, its a well justified fear.

[@tgaraditya]

dont waste your time to educate them, just sit and laugh...

[@grillbaked]

UndeadSon This isn't russophobia, it's just reality.

[@qassamrabi4719]

UndeadSon dude russia admitted right after he won that they had daily contact with him

[@tombranch2261]

***** A matter for concern in and of itself.

[@onisac50]

im from scotland,as we all know donald trump is half scottish,when i was asked were they dancing and singing in the streets of scotland when he won i replied...i wouldnt put the level of euphoria quite that high lol!!!!!!

[@eddie9559]

Pew-Ton sounds like a nice guy...
