That bit with Ronny and Jordan is GOLD 😂
Especially when Jordan blocks Ronny. I didn't realize Jordan was THAT MUCH taller than Ronny!
so cute
I just left a comment about it calling it gold so it freaking must be lol
I want a bit about the 7 aid workers from the daily show GOLD
Agreed; that immature "argument" had me in stitches, and I really needed it! 😂
Ronny and Jordan’s skit kind of sums up the state of the United States.
Mission accomplished
Those two
“I’m eclipsing you!” LOL, I am jealous of how much fun that looked.
As Someone from Nebraska, I'm ashamed that I only heard about this on National news. It didn't get a whif of mention locally.
This is a major reason that the country is divided, people don't get the truth.
Oh wow, this is kind of a major story! Your news must be all Sinclair Network now? I'm so sorry. I hope they don't last much longer.
I'm from NE too! I love how Pillen says that it's time for the popular vote to be more important, but Omaha has a population of about 800k and the rest of NE (except Lincoln, which is also dem) has a population of like 100k. So, which vote is really the popular vote??
More liberal Nebraskans! My people! Too bad both our picks for Governor were awful, you either had a trump endorsed maniac or the Christian zealot we ended up with. And to think that he'll bend to Trump's desires is sickening.
Republicans work their chicanery in the dark...
Jordan Klepper should run the NYC Marathon, he got from MO to TX soooo fast!!
I was about to say something similar about how fast he got to Ronnie.
It wouldn't be fair. He would eclipse them all.
Nice !
2000mph much like the moon
He could be the Flash in the next movie! ⚡️
How ridiculous is the electoral vote? Get rid of it, every vote should count!
The Electoral College was the original progressive Woke.🙄
End Electoral College and Make All Votes Count Again.🥂
it's beyond ridiculous how they want to go w/ one system in the states they hold a majority and the other system where/when they don't hold a majority
Should be popular vote in every state
I mean that's not exactly a new idea, and legislation to that end keeps getting introduced, but it keeps dying on the alter of the filibuster. We've got to get rid of that _first._ The filibuster protects the Electoral College.
I agree. Don't read the constitution. Its toilet paper just like documents written by framers or debeates they had. Doesn't mean jack. Lets ask the mobs how to run a country. They know best.
The Sun/Moon bit had way more legs than it has any right to, masterful.
Of course you should have a popular vote. I will never understand how Americans in states like California or New York don't mind that their vote just doesn't matter in presidential election.
i’m from Idaho , and i mind !
@opaltaberna6817 at the end of the day fair is fair.. and it is not fair that a vote in Wyoming carries more value per electoral vote than in a state that is responsible for the wealth of this nation... let's talk about the republican welfare states that receive money from states like California and New York just so a state like Mississippi can keep the lights on. Strange for a "fiscally" responsible state.
She is absolutely killing it! Mad respect! She could lead the show. What a come-up story!
Agreed, her and Jordan are the best hosts after Stewart.
She bores me to death
Yet, you're still unfortunately here.@@chidumebiarukwe6436
Agree. Actually a few of them can.
@@chidumebiarukwe6436 but we get a kick out of you
I was quite literally laughing out loud when the moon (Jordan Klepper) was trying to eclipse the sun (Ronny Cheng.) Great episode as usual with Desi in the lead! LOVE YOU ALL!!!
😂😂😂 When Jordan stood in front of Ronny, I almost died.
I didn't see that coming. What a great way to close that segment.
Desi, Jordan and Ronnie are absolutely the best. They need to continue letting the 3 of them rotate and work together to host TDS
Electoral College has got to go.
The repugs will NEVER win another election ! Let’s do it !
You types are a disgrace to America
As someone who supports a popular vote idea and lives on a continent where that's dominant (well, it is dominant in most of the world actually), I can say that I am not really sure about USA. And all geographically big states for that matter, depending on their system of governance.
In USA, democracy is peculiar, your president has more power than most presidents in the world. In the rest of the world, presidents are mostly for show, while the true power lies with the Prime Minister/Chancellor. They are the ones running the Ministries (or, in USA, Departments), they are closely connected with houses of representatives (Assemblies, Congresses...) and it all works. In USA, president is way too powerful for the modern day and age democratic system.
And it is a huge country with regions having very different needs. So, it makes sense actually to keep the EC. If you had a normal democratic system like the rest of the world where the president is more of a figurehead, then sure, go with a popular vote. But since that is not the case, popular vote can really hurt your "flyover states" as they would really have no way of being represented by the highest official in the country. They would still get 2 congressmen and be represented equally in one of the two houses of representatives, but that's it. President would always be elected by the will of coastal states where majority of people live.
And while it might seem fair, one person one vote, it does not really reflect the needs of the country... and those should always come first instead of dogmatically stick to ANY idea. Because that's how you get Chinese government or similar - very dogmatic, does not take the realities of geography and everything else into consideration. Does not mean autocratic by default, it's just that it sticks to an IDEA instead of REALITY way more.
Rework the Electoral College maybe? Find some other system? Actually limit the powers of the POTUS before moving to popular vote?
Just getting rid of Electoral Collage and moving to a Popular Vote system for choosing a president doesn't solve anything and in the case of USA it would create more problems actually.
In short, if the individual you elect has constitutionally huge power, as POTUS does, then a popular vote in a country as huge and diverse as USA does not really work and does not hit all sides equally. Smaller countries? Sure! Countries where the president does not have as much power? Sure! But USA is neither of those. It's a much broader problem and to fix it, you need to change much in a way that US politics operates. It is not as simple as "Let us change how we count the votes and keep everything the same".
And I am all for popular vote! But every country in the world has its own set of needs and realities that need to be addressed in a non-dogmatic way and create a system best suited for its set of realities. You can't have one system work the same in every single country and culture, that's just idiotic.
@@Wustenfuchs109 it's positive discrimination for the redneck states, so... you're prolly right ig
@@Wustenfuchs109 bro nobody bout to read all this
This is the ideal pairing post Jon's second run. Desi at the desk and those two arguing about things on the green screen. Desi is killing it this week!
That's it! That's perfect!
"The reason your therapist drives a Porsche"😂😂😂
Sun vs moon bit had me crying. Well done!
I am really liking the rotation of the 'news team' onto 'the desk'. And YES, as someone else has said already "That bit with Ronny and Jordan is GOLD"!
Okay, its great that John is back on mondays. But the rest of the week falling into this Chaos that lets the rest of the crew go wild is pretty dang awesome.
He's called Jon - why should we care about what you say, when you aren't even capable of spelling his name...
@@albertalbertsen2778what’s with the unnecessary aggression?
Deso, you're the bedt
Jordan physically eclipsing Ronnie; sublime.
This use of every correspondent is the best recipe
Jordan and Ronny are comedy gold duo! 😂 They really should star in a movie, it would be a hit!
I click so fast I see Desi Lydic. Love you.
Same! Love Desi! ❤
I'm married but have a crush on her.
I was scrolling and wished for a Desi Lydic clip and Voila! She's my dream come true!
Yesssss, from Accra, Ghana in Africa.
Absolutely - it's almost embarrasing, but she is sooo hot and I just love her jokes and expressions - greetings from Denmark...
Love Desi ❤ have friends that constantly say "did I tell you I ran the NY marathon? " 😅😅😅😅
I met a girl whose photo was on the cover of the Woodstock Album. I had her autograph mine.
@@humboldthammer Is she the one under the blanket or the one on the far left by the flag and puddle ? 🙄
@@titusrider7948 Right of Center, a little bit lower.
@@humboldthammer 😅😅😅😅😅
All hail Ronny & Jordan's commitment to the bit! 💯🤣
This is HILARIOUS!!!! Well done to all three hosts / correspondents!
Yes! Every state should split like Nebraska! It's more fair than winner take all. #proudistrict2voter
GOP would just gerrymander that, too
Yknow the house wasn't enough, let's get the electoral college gerrymandered to
@@dino0228Then when they do that, they should get rid of the electoral college altogether.
@@CaelWhiz except that when they do that, they’re on charge and won’t rid a system that unfairly gives them an advantage
Hope Trump looks directly into the eclipse again.
Before it starts.
DimJongUn,my thoughts EXACTLY!! I guess his mom never told him not to look directly at the sun during an eclipse!! Or, even if she did, he wouldn’t have listened to her advice (or ANY)advice for that matter.
How else could he keep up that tan?
Oh, that would be great
That's the 3rd time I've seen that exact post.
He will
From Florida.
Dude, Ronny and Jordan crush it every time!
More of the dynamics between Klepper and Chieng is what we need, that was just fire!
I'm liking this Desi character.
She is the greatest!
The sun?… 😏
I laugh a lot during all your shows, especially since Jon Steward has returned on Mondays ... but man, the skit with Ronny and Jordan at the end had me rolling on the floor ...
Thanks for all you do people, it's terrific !
You all are crushin' it!!! Thank you all, you brilliant goofballs!!! You & the writers - BRAVO!!! 👏🤣👏😂👏😆
I think that Desi is the best correspondent host by far. I think I might even be happy if she did it full time!
Yes!
Same. I’m not sure why, but she really does the host seat well.
Her voice is awful.
The electoral collage is very sick joke
A very unfunny, sick "joke"!!!
So is your face
But this one hurts more people at once
Abolish the electoral college... it's nothing but a way to subvert the popular vote. It's really the only way, (along with gerrymandering and voter suppression) that Republicans can win elections!
All slavers disliked your comment.
google supports their presidential candidates by giving their hate groups messages a voice while shutting down people questioning it
Epic eclipse sketch!!!😂 Jordan cracks me up!!! Ronny too!! I could listen to Desi Lydic and this crew forever!!💝😂
That ending is the hardest I’ve laughed at the daily show in recent memory!
I HOPE THE CHILDREN OF THE FUTURE ARE SMART ENOUGH TO GET RID OF THIS MESS!?
I assume this mess refers to electoral college and not daily show or sun and moon.
Don't bet any money on it, especially ially while half the country is regressing.
Not if you get info in 10 sec sound bites 👀
“ I thought this would bring us together”
“Shut up Desi!”
“Yeah, shut up Desi!”
Nightmare
That was HILARIOUS 🤣! Those two guys were brilliant together
WANT MORE OF THEM!!!
Great job! The eclipse skit was simply brilliant. Awesome job!
I’m just eager to see the newest eclipse pic of Trump staring at it.
I _wish_ I could get on that eclipse flight. It's the only way to be guaranteed that you won't be blocked by clouds.
@StevenBazin-bp4scNah. Some things don't work unless you're really there.
You will be shady.
I'd be pretty bummed if I got a flight & then was on the side turned away from it at the best moment for pics!
I really want to go, but I couldn’t bring myself to buy tickets a year in advance and risk clouds
It would be cool. But, they miss the cool shadows leaves make, and the animals getting weird. 😸
ronny and klepper remind me of carrell and colbert debates lol
Having a pretty rough time right now so thank you for the bit Ronny and Jordan. It's just what I needed to put a smile on my face. 😊
After that 'Pathetic Worm' thing, I bet someone who deals with him and saw this will accidentally call him "Mister Pathet.. I mean President", and Donnie will blow his top. At least one's gotta, right?
I’ll do it!
Jordan eclipsing Ronny was inipired - never saw it comin'. Full marks all - great stuff!
"It's the reason your therapist drives a Porsche."
I KNEW IT! I KNEW AS SOON AS HE TOLD ME NOT TO DISCUSS THE VERY THING THAT MAKES ME FEAR FOR MY LIFE!!!
Love you all! Ronnie and Jordan, Sun and Moon, too funny!
Love for the writers, too! 💜✊
From Australia - lovely job of satirising both the danger & stupidity in USA. Great host.

Despite the goings-on in Congress, I don't believe the USA is bordering on madness. I believe Mexico and Canada are.
Robert Breault
Canadians who aren't in a right-wing bubble are fairly terrified, yes. But I have a lot of hope! Normally it's conservatives who are the more motivated voters, but over the past few years, they've turned this around. 🌊🌊🌊
the eclipse at the ending 🤣
The eclipse segment was hysterical!i just loved it!,
Especially when Jordan eclipsed Ronnie!
Desi is awesome!!❤❤❤
It cost me $25.00 to run the Honolulu marathon in 1983 and 1984. Got a cool T-shirt too. 🌺
Spot on honest and hysterical as always thanks!
Desi is killing it! Great job 😁
this was an awesome episode, desi did a fantastic job and ronny and jordan had a blast
The Ronnie and Jordan part was the funniest thing that was done on purpose in a long time.
This made me laugh out loud multiple times. This was gold 😂❤
Ronny and Jordan together crush it!
Desi, you became a fave for me early on, much love ❤
In related eclipse news, the Niagara region has already declared a state of emergency to help manage the expected massive increase in visitors.
Local authorities wouldn't need a state of emergency if they were competent to cope with the situation.
The early declaration is their admission that they have given up _in advance._
Yay, Western New York!
We'll see, Yank. We'll see.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Niagara region in Canada, yes. But did Niagara region in USA also declare an emergency?
This whole cast hilarious. I love the changeups. Everyone gets to shine.
Hey hey hey now Jordan and Ronny, don't bring Mars into this! 😂
Desi you are GORGEOUS ❤
I swear these guys seem to have the funnest yet surprisingly dangerous job in the world
It's actually filled with the friendliest and most welcoming rubes I've ever met. 😂 😂
I love this format. Everyone’s sharper and funnier
I love this news team!
Charges us taxes to build the bridge- then charge us to use the bridge we paid for???
I'm STILL angry about the "new" Yankee Stadium. Haven't visited it yet, nor do I plan ever to do so. Still a fan, but I can eat and drink at home and save time and money. I only miss the fights in the old section 39 bleachers and the creatures. I see you, Donna!
should just charge those using the bridge
You guys are killing it. I'm loving this format of Daily show. Thank you!
I love you Desi Lydic! Thanks so much for the laughs and smiles you bring!
Boston marathon is what comes to mind when marathon mentioned
Honolulu marathon for me. I finished twice! 🤙🏽
Ronnie and Jordan were the best part of this segment.
Absolutely fantastic bit. Keep it coming, I’m loving this return and this cast 😂😂
I've only just discovered Lydic and she absolutely kills me. Love her comedic style. Just nails it.
Desi is killing it
That country makes no sense, how do they even convince themselves they have fair elections 😂
Absolutely killed it Trevor's old team keeping up that show🎉🎉😂
Come on do away with the electoral college. What ever happened to 'one person, one vote, make it easy and make it count' Why does my vote in California count far less than one vote in Montana?
Desi deserves the primary role, she really rocks.
I live in the eclipse zone. The cashing in is ridiculous. We have huge open areas and yet a rural church nearby is charging twenty bucks to park. They are offering free entertainment while you wait and will be selling food. All for a four minute eclipse.
The church LOVES to grab money whenever they can.
I prefer my, "When an eel bites a guy and he thinks he might die, thaaaat's a Moray!"
I live close to Kerrville tx😂 I wish ronny chang would come! #TrumpForPrison #voteblue2024 🗳🇺🇸💙🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Trump said He has been in over 3,000 marathons, & has won first place everytime. He said He beat the worlds fastest man, & woman!! Okay, He didn't say it, but admit it, He would say bs like this. 🤣🤣
He does that in golf tournaments, sometimes he doesn’t even play the first round.
Trump could run a marathon and some say, with tears in their eyes, that he is the greatest athlete in history. Trump would claim he could win 1st place thru 10th place at the same race. (And many of America's worm worshipers would believe him.)
That's with bone spurs

If the moon were gone, MOST life on earth could NOT EXIST either. Look it up. True story.
Life would be mostly fine without the tides. Unless you're a crab.
@@GamesFromSpace It's the continued existence of our molten core and thus the magnetosphere. Also plate tectonics. And love.
All hail the Moon!
@@bbirda1287 those things aren't affected by lunar orbit, the biggest role the moon plays in plate tectonics is that it's largely made out of former earth-crust from back when the impact occurred that helped form it, if that crust were still on earth there would effectively be too much crust for plate tectonics
The heat in the core is just leftovers from when the planet formed, it takes a really long time for decently sized planets to radiate that original heat when they're constantly being baked by their star, the Goldilocks zone is labeled as such because it's in the range from it's star where a planet receives roughly as much heat from the star as it radiates naturally back into space allowing for a hot planetary core and the possibility of plate tectonics which is a driving force in the formation of life based on what we know
@@bbirda1287 We'd have a billion years, literally, before the lack of the moon could hypothetically cause plate tectonics to be an issue.
Desi you are amazing!
The boys killed it on this sketch!
MTG thinks that an e-clipse is an app.
She thinks E-Clips is an app one uses to order a mobile hair stylist
Have some respect. it's impressive that a horse like MTG can even use a smart phone.
@@guardrailbiter show some respect to horses, they're beautiful, sensitive, intelligent creatures. MTG is only a creature.

This was epically entertaining idiocy - thank you!
YES!!!! National Popular Vote!!! Look it up, and encourage your state to adopt it ASAP. 💙💙💙
Jordan Klepper and Ronny Chieng's feud over the moon and sun was the science lesson of the day, I didn't know I needed. Nice block.
About the election:
If you think you don't want the 51% bossing around the 49% consider the alternative where the 1% bosses around the 99%
The 1% have always ruled the world -- because they are the only ones who can.
That's🔥You should be writing for TDS.
Isn't that what Trump wants !😊
Sorry meant Mango Mussolini ! Why be polite about a fascist ?
That already happens though, it's called Capitalism.
If you want to make Nebraska winner take all, do the same for Maine. One rule for al 50 states.
Re-watching this sun/moon bit again! 🤣🤣🤣I could watch an entire movie of Ronny and Jordan as feuding buddies. Like Mel Gibson and Danny Glover. Or Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte.😂😂😂
I love them so much! 😂😂😂😂😂
DESI 2024!!!
Ronnie and Jordan are hilarious! How about we totally eliminate the Electoral College? and let the people decide who will be the next President of the United States!!!
I love this! I am from Kerrville but now live in Colorado so I didn’t get to experience it like my beautiful little town did❤
This is one of the best episodes ever!
❤🎉😂
