The news was shocking. Santa Claus, that jolly old Saint Nicholas, has resigned. Taking his place? Black Santa, aka, “Saint Vick.”
Investigative reporter Roy Wood Jr. took the Daily Social Distancing Show audience inside this transfer of power. What he found was somewhat disturbing.
“St. Nicholas is a good man,” said…
Trevor Noah thinks President Donald Trump is “a man in a bar fight with reality.” That’s after the most recent turn-down by a higher court to hear appeals on the election.

Trevor Noah’s focus tonight was on the coronavirus, which he called “The outbreak that’s harder to get rid of than the college buddy crashing on your couch.”

John Bolton, described as a full-time “Got Milk” ad by Trevor Noah, has a new book expected to be out soon, The Room Where It Happened.
