Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, and more say goodbye to four years of Trump.
“I’m not sure what to feel right now,” he continued.
“It feels like the night before my wedding and my divorce all rolled up into one.”
It was also a time for many hosts to look back on Trump’s presidency.
Kimmel ran through how Trump failed to complete most of his campaign promises.
Remember that time he promised to appeal the Affordable Care Act and replace it with something better?
What about that time he promised to build an impenetrable wall and have Mexico pay for it?
“In the end, the takeaway from this presidency is take him away,” he said.
“We here atThe Late Showhave been counting down to this day for four long years literally counting!”
Each episode since has been counting down to his last day.
“We counted it down every night for four long, painful years,” Colbert said.
“And tonight, the number on the dome has counted down to one.”
“Are you insane?”
“You left the nation in ruins.
What did you come here to do?
This, he thought, was a good preamble for the rest of his presidency.
“At least Trump is leaving on top,” he continued.
“Washington, D.C. has never looked more beautiful.”
By beautiful, he means a barbed-wire fence surrounds the Capitol building, which is stocked with armed guards.
“Actually, that has nothing to do with the riots.
Those are just some of Melania’s old Christmas decorations,” Fallon joked.
James CordenchanneledLes Miserablesin a musical parody to celebrate “one day more” of Trump jokes.
“One day more, the final day of Trump as president,” he sang.
“The White House has a brand-new resident.
It’s been four years of endless crimes, but now he’s finally out of time.
One day more!”
His virtual ensemble cast also includedPatti LuPone, who played Fantine in the original West End production ofLes Miserables.
“One day more of Trump rallies,” they sang.
“Will he super-spread again?”
