Welcome to Late Night Roundup, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
Trump’s ‘War on Canada’
President Trump signed orders on Monday imposing a 50 percent tariff on Canadian goods imported into the U.S.
“OK, now what are we taxing ourselves to punish Canada for?” Desi Lydic asked on “The Daily Show.”
“Fighting again with Canada? I thought we were going to work this ‘oot.’” — DESI LYDIC
“No hockey sticks? What’s my husband going to keep jammed in the corner of the garage for the past 15 years?” — DESI LYDIC
“Now, obviously, it’s very frustrating to be back in this trade war again. But if you’re worried that this is another case of Trump abusing his power, relax: These tariffs are legal under the Smoot-Hawley Act, which has been around since 1930, when it helped prolong and worsen the Great Depression. So, cheer up!” — DESI LYDIC
Lydic also poked fun at Trump for threatening further tariffs on Canada for the smoke coming into the U.S. from their wildfires.
“Are you sure you want America to set a precedent for paying for pollution? I feel like your pals at Pesticide Microplastic Death Diarrhea Lettuce Inc. might have other ideas.” — DESI LYDIC
“I love how he’s discovering climate change while standing next to his idling jet: ‘Something is causing this, and we have got to get to the bottom of it. Keep the engine running guys, all of ‘em. I haven’t decided which plane I’m taking.’” — DESI LYDIC
The Punchiest Punchlines (Cropped Edition)
“Today in Madrid, Spain held their World Cup victory parade. Yeah, Spain’s victory parade was great. Although, this was a little odd: For some reason, Messi was giving Lamine Yamal another bath.” — JIMMY FALLON
“Yes, Spain’s team was excited, but it was hard to tell if they were celebrating their victory or celebrating that Trump wasn’t there celebrating their victory.” — JIMMY FALLON
“To be honest, it’s possible Trump was there and Spain just cropped him out of all the pictures.” — JIMMY FALLON
