Transcript
00:00And now 720 days, 88 criminal charges, 34 felony convictions, four indictments,
00:06two Democratic opponents, and one garbage truck later. Here we are. Election day.
00:11Late night hosts are sharing their final messages and closing arguments ahead of election night.
00:16Over on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel urged viewers to move on already from Donald Trump.
00:21Imagine a world in which you wake up in the morning, you check the news,
00:25and no one says the words Donald or Trump. Just a bunch of normal...
00:30No arguing with your grandfather. You check the sports. Al Roker does the weather. Off to work you go.
00:37Delivering the message towards the end of his late night monologue, he likened Trump to a, quote, cancerous polyp.
00:43It feels like the whole country is waiting to get the results of a biopsy.
00:47Let's remove this cancerous polyp from our collective national colon and move on already.
00:52And don't forget to vote.
00:54Meanwhile, Stephen Colbert traveled to Philadelphia for his election eve late show interview with Tim Walls,
01:00where the high school football coach-turned-vice-presidential candidate gave America a final pep talk ahead of Tuesday.
01:07Colbert asked Walls about his highs and lows of the campaign trail, and if he was surprised by the tight election polls.
01:13It disappoints me, I think, because I think that the choice is so stark, but it's not surprising. The country's really divided.
01:19The segment ended with Walls' pep talk.
01:21We know that we're in the final two minutes of this game. We're going to give 110%.
01:25We know we have to leave it on the field because, look, democracy's at stake here.
01:31Colbert also chatted with John Oliver, playing a 2015 late show clip of Oliver saying he didn't care about Donald Trump announcing his first run for president.
01:402016 came and it has never left. We have been in the 2016 news cycle for eight years now.
01:47Elsewhere, Oliver made his own final election day plea to viewers on his own show for last week tonight.
01:53If Donald Trump loses this election, he's basically finished.
01:57I know he would put us through hell. He would put us through hell before he left the stage,
02:03but when the dust settled, he'd have lost two elections in a row and we'd be campaigning as an 82-year-old next time.
02:10I think he'd be done. And doesn't that sound great?
