Samantha Bee’s Take On #GoldenShowerGate Is Exactly What We Need (VIDEO)

Last night on her weekly show, Full Frontal, Samantha Bee weighed in on the news which had broken just 24 hours earlier: Russian intelligence operatives may have damaging financial and personal information about Donald Trump, including unsubstantiated allegations that Trump paid prostitutes to engage in questionable sexual acts. The entire matter now has its own hashtag on Twitter: #GoldenShowerGate.

Bee began by saying what made her doubt Trump had hired prostitutes is the fact that he’s never paid anyone, and then she added:

“In fact, if we believe something nasty and petty is what gets Trump hard, then his late night tweets to Alec Baldwin make a lot more sense.”

Next, Bee noted that Trump had once again used a table with props on it at Wednesday’s press conference: A “pile of manila folders” which represented:

“A soggy mattress once occupied by the last president we could look at without bursting into tears.”

Finally, the host had perhaps the most brilliant take on the day’s news:

“And while it’s fun to watch a livid Orange Julius explain that he can’t be into water-sports because he’s a germaphobe, we may have just witnessed what the history books will call, the end of the free press.

“A spoon full of hooker urine helps the treason claims go down.”

If you’re in need of a good laugh, this should do the trick:
