  • ♪ ♪ ♪ >> Stephen: WELL, FOLKS, IT

  • LOOKS LIKE WE'VE REACHED THE END OF THE SHOW AND WE STILL DON'T

  • KNOW WHO WON.

  • WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG, IT FEELS LIKE CHRISTMAS

  • EVE, AND NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THE JUDGMENTAL FAT GUY WITH

  • THE RED HAT.

  • BUT BECAUSE WE'RE ALL UP LATE WONDERING IF TOMORROW MORNING

  • WE'RE GOING TO GET THE PRESENT WE'VE BEEN BEGGING FOR: A BORING

  • PRESIDENT.

  • LIKE YOU, I'M EXHAUSTED. NOT JUST FROM TONIGHT.

  • ALTHOUGH: YEAH.

  • BUT FROM THE PAST FOUR YEARS.

  • I'VE BEEN ON HIGH ALERT SINCE EARLY IN THE MORNING NOVEMBER 9

  • OF 2016.

  • NOW, MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS WITHIN NORMAL RANGE...FOR A TRUCK

  • TIRES.

  • YOU COULD ROLL MY AORTA OVER A GRAVEL ROAD, AND I WOULDN'T FEEL

  • A BUMP.

  • FOR FOUR YEARS, TRUMP HAS KEPT THIS ENTIRE NATION'S EMOTIONAL

  • METER HOVERING OVER IN THE RED ZONE.

  • AND EVERY TIME YOU THINK YOU CAN TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE GAS, A

  • CARAVAN OF TRUMP TRUCKS TRIES TO RUN YOU OFF THE ROAD.

  • SO I UNDERSTAND YOUR STRESS.

  • I DO.

  • AND NOW I'M GOING TO SAY SOMETHING A LITTLE

  • CONTROVERSIAL, SO DON'T GET MAD AT ME.

  • IT'S ACTUALLY A GOOD THING WE DON'T KNOW WHO WON YET.

  • ( AUDIENCE BOOS ) STOP!

  • STOP THAT!

  • YOU DON'T EXIST!

  • STOP IT!

  • THE TRUTH IS, THE REASON IT'S TAKING SO LONG TO DECLARE A

  • WINNER IS BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD SUCH MASSIVE VOTER TURNOUT.

  • GOING INTO TONIGHT, MANY WERE PREDICTING THE HIGHEST RATE OF

  • VOTER TURNOUT SINCE 1908.

  • THAT WAS A CLOSE RACE, BUT WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT EVENTUALLY

  • BEAT HIS OPPONENT WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN IN THE

  • POST-ELECTION WEIGH-OFF.

  • THE POINT IS, THIS YEAR, MILLIONS OF YOU BRAVED THE

  • PANDEMIC, AN ARMY OF POLL WATCHERS, EVEN THE POST OFFICE,

  • JUST TO MAKE SURE YOU GOT TO VOTE.

  • EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE BALLOTS DESERVES TO BE COUNTED,

  • WHETHER THEY ARE VOTES FOR JOE BIDEN, VOTES FOR DONALD TRUMP,

  • OR WRITE-IN VOTES FOR BOOBS, BOOBS, BOOBS!

  • BUT WE'VE BEEN AGE TO WAIT FOR THIS MOMENT SINCE NOVEMBER OF

  • 2016, AND MANY OF YOU WAITED IN LINE FOR HOURS TO MAKE YOUR

  • VOICES HEARD.

  • SO, I KNOW WE'VE ALL GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO WAIT JUST A LITTLE BIT

  • LONGER.

  • BUT, STILL, WE ALL DESERVE SOME SMALL TASTE OF THAT SATISFACTION

  • WE CRAVE.

  • SO IN CLOSING TONIGHT, PLEASE ENJOY THIS BRIEF MONTAGE OF

  • THINGS THAT FEEL AS SATISFYING AS YOU WANT THIS TO.

  • >> AND NOW, THINGS THAT FEEL AS SATISFYING AS YOU WANT THIS TO.
