Samantha Bee, Jon Stewart and More Celebrate the End of the Election in Faraway Dream Sequence
On November 9, Samantha Bee envisioned waking up and having Hillary Clinton be the President of the United States. Unfortunately that was not the post-election world we live in, but the “Full Frontal” host hoped it would be.
Bee kicked off her Wednesday night episode with a dream sequence in which she celebrated the election being over. Waking up and embracing the day, she’s seen high-fiving people on the street, including Jon Stewart, taking selfies with Van Jones, and getting a piggyback ride from Katie Couric. It also features guest appearances from Stephen Colbert, Larry Wilmore, Patton Oswald and more.
While she doesn’t say Clinton on Donald Trump’s name in the clip, the sketch ends with Bee suddenly waking up and saying, “Oh, no!”
Bee has been very vocal about her thoughts on the election, saying that Trump winning is “bad for everyone.”
“In the coming days, people will be looking for someone to blame: the pollsters, the strident feminists, the Democratic party, a vengeful god. But once you dust for fingerprints, it’s pretty clear who ruined America: white people,” she stated during the episode. “I guess ruining Brooklyn was just a dry run. The caucasian nation showed up in droves to vote for Trump.” Check out her full “Morning After” monologue below.
