Comedy
Introduction
Welcome to The Daily Show! I'm Geordan Clapper, and boy do we have a lot to cover tonight. With Kamala Harris making her final arguments and Donald Trump closing his campaign with some peculiar flair, there's plenty of material to dive into. As we gear up for the election, don't fret about who will emerge victorious—we'll just tell you!
The Big Day
Tomorrow marks not just the highly anticipated Election Day but also Tilla SWT's birthday—happy birthday to her, who remains ageless! As we all hold our breath for the results, I still believe Joe Biden has a good chance of pulling off a win.
Both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have been hard at work making their closing arguments. Harris’s message revolves around unity and hope, and she's enlisted a star-studded lineup to energize her campaign. With performances from big names such as Mumford and Sons, Gracie Abrams, Cardi B, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and more, she's making sure to woo every last Soul Cycle vote.
While Harris ends her campaign on a joyous and celebrity-packed note, Trump's closing argument rumbles with aggression and annoyance at his opponents. He was caught on stage expressing his desire to "knock the hell out of people" backstage and fired up about his rivals. His speech included jabs at Democratic figures, but he also leaned into some bizarre moments, suggesting he needed permission from RFK Jr. to work on women’s health while he focuses on oil drilling.
The Oddities of Trump’s Campaign
As we analyze Trump's campaign, it seems to spiral into the bizarre, especially as he jokes about shooting reporters and makes unconventional sexual innuendos regarding a microphone. As the election draws near, he casually mentions that RFK Jr. will handle women’s health and other pressing matters, while he sticks to extracting oil. Amidst all this confusion, he announced plans to remove fluoride from public water—a standard practice for decades. This sudden pivot raises eyebrows and leaves many wondering where these ideas came from.
Meanwhile, peanut the squirrel, beloved on social media, met an unfortunate end after being seized by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation, sparking outrage among MAGA Republicans. They see the squirrel’s demise as an issue worth rallying behind as Election Day approaches—a strange juxtaposition to the heated political landscape.
As we wrap up, the tides are churning ahead of Election Day, with one candidate sinking deeper into chaos and people more concerned about the fate of peanut the squirrel than pressing political issues. Will democracy triumph, or will we tumble into anarchy? We’ll find out soon enough.
