"Don'tthinkaboutIvankaDon'tthinkaboutIvankaDon'tthinkaboutIvankaDon'tthinkaboutIvanka."
That cracked me up.
not just you hahahah XD
I can’t believe they went there.
@@kimberlyrobinson3992 Well they woudn't have if Trump didn't keep going there first.
That was the highlight! And true...😳
Me too!
An instant classic. Clever as hell.
@Robo Cop "Propaganda"? Ho ho ho!!
@Robo Cop dumb as ever I see
That elf’s sole reaction to Gulliani’s speech With just “ew” is spot on.
It was because of the “gassy assie” at the end. 🤪
Not the speech... the stinky fart!
@@abelis644 Which was the only part of the speech with any meaning.
Fartage
Also, even in the face of death, Rudi froze doing what he loved most. 6:21
"It's as full as the heart that peeks inside" Damn, that's too real
@Asim Malik Asim's sack was empty too.
The Mitch that stole Christmas. Truly words were never spoken.
"Truly words were never spoken."
This is the caliber of reading and writing comprehension I expect from people like you.
Agreed! Especially since he doesn't have a heart - even at Christmas time - to allow a decent stimulus check to those who so desperately need it. That is truly heartless.
@@virtualmartini You're inferring a lot about a person from a grammatical mistake. Should we assume you're a fascist because you criticize people in Colbert comment sections?
@Asim Malik Why? What about "invest in America" instead of a foreign country (aka Canada)?
@Asim Malik And exactly where does this belong in the comments for Colbert's Christmas special? Take your business peddling elsewhere.
This should be played *EVERY* year so the people never forget.
@Robo Cop Why not? Santa has been use to sell everything for Cola to Razors and everything in between.
But they DO forget. If you were born this year, it would be *old news* by the time you were starting to draw your own conclusions about the world, and almost two decades in the past before you could actually do anything about it. Then it's just "a thing you have been told" so many times that you've developed ideas about what it was like when it was happening, even if you watched contemporary recordings.
What we need are laws that prevent this sort of cluster...um... *thing* from happening again, and maybe even annotations in the law that describe its intent so it can't be inadvertently buggered up, and a lot harder to *deliberately* circumvent.
I agree👍
@Robo Cop Look in the mirror.
@Robo Cop Haven't been paying much attention, have you? At least this is done in jest, Trump would have enslaved the country by now given sufficient power to do it
“This isn’t about you!”
“Everything’s about me!” 😜
That about sums up his presidency and his whole existence. So very sad.
@@Harmonic2010 lol, yeah, I was about to comment that I couldnt believe they got trump to actually participate in this skit.
@@Harmonic2010 SAD! BABY! 👶
@@tommcfeely8707 right. neat, huh!
@@crazyman8472 Yeah, baby! :) :)
Mitch, that stole Christmas with the Nazi-Eagle on his lapel- that was hilarious! And true!
I don't guess you got the Raiders of the Lost Ark reference. His character is the henchman who burned his hand on the gold medallion and who's face melted when they opened the ark. So yes he was a Nazi.
I didn't catch that! Now I have to watch it again!
Good eyes. I figured It'd have to watch this a few times for all the details.
Ps, the sack was the Ark
As much as I thought it would end up with Raiders of the Lost Ark with the Sack, I honestly saw Mitch more as Judge doom with his attire, voice especially.
"Hey, Santa, is it okay if Christmas is a little late, this year?"
"It's 2020. F*ck it."
😆😆😆
"You made my holidays a living hell! But I got ya something...." I feel like that is SO Joe Biden. That and the fact that he was so worried about whether they were or weren't ok. Amazing.
"Four Seasons Brazilian Bodywax Embalming Emporium" That is TOO funny!
Omg same
@@DaNFLboi you can
"The sack is as full as the heart that peeks inside it." - Santa Claus 2020
@Asim Malik And bacon masks? ?
So trump looks inside and it deflates. Fitting.
@Asim Malik - Purple and gold for LSU! GO Tigers!
*"Its 2020 Fuck It!"* - Santa Claus 2020
*"It's 2020 FUCK IT"*
*Never a wiser words were spoken*
😂😂
Santa said “[BEEP] it.” I checked the captions.
That's my motto for this year.
I hear that the Queen of England also has a profane streak.....
I luv that!😁
I think Santa speaks for us all here 🤣
Ooo maybe this is that what will unite America 🤔😁
Awww...I was looking forward to seeing Mitch’s face melt off Lost Ark style. Oh well, maybe next year!
It's a slow melt.
It's been melting for years by the looks of him. Yuck. 🤢
What, you think he's human?
@@telectronix1368 ooookay now in the next cleanup cartoon (this is at least No 2 after the Santa saves the Mueller Probe thing) when the GOP still has not turned back into a real boy by Christmas 2021 they need to make Mitch into the Terminator, having been sent from the future to kill democracy...
And Ted Cruz needs to get the bucket of water treatment from the Wizard of Oz ;)
When Santa said "don't look it" and Joe put the aviators on.... perfect lol
Great reference to Indiana Jones, that was really creative!😁
"Is Obama with him?"
"No"
"Awwww...."
DEAD
@Asim Malik reported for unwanted commercial content
So are all thoes middle eastern kids Obama ordered the death of.
@@c_blaze5052 Every modern president has done the same thing.
@@thatclassclown7587 that doesn’t cancel out and make them all good. That makes them all evil war criminals.
@@c_blaze5052 I wasnt trying to cancel them out. I just wanted to point out the fact that Obama isn't the only war criminal we've had in modern history.
2:24 The Abominable Snowman with the "BBQ and BEER" shirt is hilarious. Only true OGs got that reference
That was Florida guy screaming about Biden crime family stealing the election right? He was hoping to be dragged away but was ignored instead.
@@Baliane22 I think it was Nevada, actually, but yeah.
@@GCWeber thanks for the correction.
With a maga hat on😂😂😂
I laughed my head off at what they did with the Abominable. He wasn't originally a bad guy, you know, but it sure works here!
Bacon scented mask would be genius though 😂
... eatable 😆..🤧..😷
No one would wanna take it off xD
I am pretty sure Hormel did it, but I would have to double check.
Take masks, soak in Liquid Smoke, give to people without masks. They'll become mask addicts.
My thoughts exactly:)
"Don't think of Ivanka!" - broke me.
"It's 2020, f*** it!" - Stop it! Stop killing me! I'm dead already!!!
@Asim Malik Troll
It's both a sad and hilarious thing that the second line was more unexpected than the first.
How prescient this was...We did not know then there would also be an attempted coup AFTER Christmas.
"In there, you can always be President." "AND ONLY IN THERE!"
Greg Os, in reality, i wish he would believe that, but he's too delusional to do so.
@@Harmonic2010 Mariah Carey should remix that song where she sangs, "You're delusional. You're delusional. Boy you're losing your mind."
@@greyos6034 splendid idea. :)
That was truly a highlight of this wonderful video. ONLY in there!
I Approve this message.
"The Mitch who stole Christmas" - Great line, Imma use that.
or the trump who cancelled christmas !
If I were Biden, I would’ve added “And that’s Mr. President-elect Biden to you!”
I love how cartoon Joe wears a snowflake tie and when Santa said: "It's 2020, f**ck it."
This is the most meaningful and funniest Christmas cartoon I've ever watched !!! It should become one of the Christmas Classics.
watching it in 2024
“Pa-rum-pum-pum press conference” SO SMOOTHLY DONE like this entire masterpiece
The writers deserve extra credit and a raise for this. This was great.
Some dump Trump protest music you may enjoy th-cam.com/video/RWvprHE6dNI/w-d-xo.html
A little nod to Spielberg would have been nice. After all, it's his story line from Raiders...
@@c.a.savage5689 And one line from Die Hard. Yippy Kay yay!
@@c.a.savage5689, Yeah, it took me a second. I got it with "Keep Your Eyes Closed.".
I'd say they deserve a Emmy too.
The fact McConnel is dressed as the guy from Raiders of the Lost Ark and whistles like Gopher from Winnie the Pooh really pleases me. And then it was immediately followed up by a Planet of the Apes reference!
THIS IS BRILLIANT!
Did you notice the Grinch-like smile at 3:07 ?
@@5speed735i No I didn't! Even better!
@Beelz, I didn't see Jack Torrence, but NOW I do.
I didn't catch the Planet of the Apes reference. What was it?
On Amtrak!, On Acela!, On...board dining! hahaha This piece is chock full of wonderful references. Great job 'A Late Show' writers!
“Well if it isn’t the Mitch that stole Christmas.” Good thing I was drinking anything. Jesus, that’s a good one.
Is it _just_ me? Or does Mitch _always_ look like a decaying fish? _Mostly_ irl though. This cartoon some how _missed_ his fishy-ness? 🤣🤣🤣
@@Digitalhunny A dehydrated turtle 😂
As brilliant as this was, it didn't fully capture either Mitch's neck waddle Or his way of making skin crawl
wasn't?
sam bee made this joke first.
"The same way I saved Nakatomi Plaza!" - A reference to another great christmas movie... 😁😁
Indiana Jones meets diehard meets Rudolph.. lol the perfect Christmas special 😄💕🎄
"Mr. President, the partridge is in the pear tree"
"I don't know what that means"
Of course he doesn’t READ his briefings! 😂
"Don't think about Ivanka, don't think about Ivanka". So funny, and so disturbing because you just know that's where his thoughts would go. Also who else thinks that snowglobe would look nice on his jail cell windowledge ?
So who is the real peodo.dump
Or mental hospital room window ledge.
😂😂😂😂😫
BabeminzGirlsszz.SpaCe
@daniel morris • Ivanka may be getting too old for someone who likes teenage girls.
Stephen and your crew: Thank you for being one of the few joys of the past miserable year. Have yourselves a great vacation.
A real "Joy" is printing out his monologues and wiping my a** with them when the local stores are out of toilet paper, then flushing them back to where they came from, the sewer. Him and Rachel Maddow ought to team up that would give us 2/3 of the Three Stooges.
Let me add my thanks. Satire equals sanity!
Absolutely agreed... please ignore any imbecilic responses to your pleasant comment... the new theme for the coming year should b to rise above the likes of the twat who’s already responded negatively to u... I’d usually comment on how gormless and vulgar his comment makes him appear, but I’m starting early- so just going to leave it go 😆
Merry Christmas Lawrence Wade 🎄
The animation department and the cartoonist needs a Christmas bonus...😉
The little Late Show Elves deserve a raise for this one.
There is SO MUCH movie, political and christmas references in this one that it needs the rewatch multiple times to catch them all. 🤣
Jho I agree! It's a Magnus opus! Freakin' Hilarious
Ernest Saves Christmas is one!!
i got the indiana Jones reference is that correct?
It needs multiple rewatches just because it’s so entertaining
Already have it on a continuous loop.. .
This beats Ralphie and his BB gun any day!😆🤣🤣🤣
"I can live with that." I would believe it if McConnell actually came out and said those words.
I think in Mitch's case, his inaction are his words!
I am 65 years of age and even though I’m Jewish ;
I loved watching
all the Christmas cartoons
and this was by far
the most relevant and flawlessly well done!!
Bravo bravo bravo👈👈👈
This is better than the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I'm here for it.
"It's 2020 f**** it!"
LOL great quote ! 🤣
Masterful topical entertainment. It has transcended mere comedy, and reached some unfathomable platonic ideal.
I can already tell that this was a Raiders of the Lost Ark reference as soon as McConnell was wearing the same outfit as the bad guy from the movie.
"Oh Christmas train", is my new favorite Christmas song.
I'm still singing Once Upon Impeachment from last year's Christmas special!
“Son of a Grinch!” Oh I’m using that now!🤣🤣🤣
I usually use “Son of a biscuit!”😉
This must have been cathartic for everyone involved in this production.
I see you read the code book 😆
I forgot the actual coup happened before Christmas, and I was waiting for people to start climbing up Santa's house with viking hats on.
they are fine, just powerless... Perfect Christmas gift for me
Hopefully after Tuesday the last bit of power they hold will be gone...what a new years miracle it will be ......if so I would chop off my on leg to see mitch mcconnels reaction in real time to him loosing his majority leader title..
"When you '👍🏻' before a video even starts..."
*Thank you, Stephen!* 😊
"You sure you're okay to drive?"
"Nope!"
Closely followed by "I don't know how to land a train!"
Would you rather trust trump at the wheel!? After witnessing 4 years worth of his "situational awareness?"
One of my favorite parts! With the aviator shades, no less! Perfect!
"as full as the heart that peeps inside" awww
..also bacon smelling masks; Viciously cynical and funny.
I never realised how much Wolf Blitzen sounds like Steven Colbert.
He loves doing that impression. It's good!
This was the best Christmas cartoon ever!! Thank you Steve!
Somehow, ending with Santa saying "F*ck it" seems like a perfect way to end this year.
Santa's got ya covered 🎅👍
That was hilarious. Thanks guys...
That's about saying it all to this year. Lol
" it's 2020.
... Fuck it"
- _Santa Claus, 2020_
"Let's get that sack back, Jack!"
I hope Colbert continues these animated Christmas shorts even during Biden's Presidency.
Heck yes!
AWESOME. MERRY CHRISTMAS
I'm just hoping My Cartoon President gets another season.
Yeah I love these ♥️
Me too! Especially if he is indicted in NY!
1:22 Okay, so the pixelated reindeer nuts made me snork my eggnog up the wrong tube. Keep it coming.
Going to miss A Late Show. Has been a sanity saver this year.
What a masterpiece. The humor--the characters--the epic battle between Good and Evil--the twists and turn in the plot--and the very happiest of endings! But, will Donald be content with his snow globe???
"Don't think about Ivanka!'
Merry Christmas to all, and to all, WEAR A DAMN MASK!
@ hojo 70 I dig the profile pic!
5:50 Raider of the Lost Sac 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That made me giggle that did, cheered me up no end.
This should be an iconic representation for 2020, in later years.
It is. 🙂
Indeed it is. Urgh, you had 45 likes. Had to change that immediately!
Along with the line *"Its 2020 Fuck It!"*
This just proves that Die Hard is the best Christmas movie ever
It about time we got a new movie that's destined to become a Christmas classic.
"Yippee ki yay Nutcracker"...lmao.
"I don't know how to land a train" is concerning! haha
This is the BEST Christmas movie EVER!! I’ll be playing this while we open gifts
"Oh, I can live with that.."
Shame he's killing the rest of us by the thousands to uphold that claim
Mitch McConnell vex he get old to become a ugly turtle.
Can't believe what a scrooge old McConnell is, pure evil
... It has taken me 4 years to realize stephen colbert is voicing wolf blitzer...
Omg... I just realized that after reading this comment🤣
Really?? I need to listen. Oh wow. I hear it now! Thanks!
I realized it in like 2sec lol
Those who don't love this opened the sac just for themselves, turned to ice and missed out on the bacon.
"Yippiekayey, Nutcracker!" 😂😂😂
Ha, the second they tied Biden and Santa to the candy cane like that, I was like, "They're gonna parody the climax of Raiders of the Lost Ark, aren't they?"
when I saw Mconnell melting icecream face in that outfit, I knew where it was going.
@Michael Scott ha you're right!
Pixelated reindeer crotch! Pure genius!
6:20, Rudy with his hand down his pants. they thought of everything
The pixilated bits on the golden reindeer...
6:36 'you're one sick pouch, mcgooch' the whole thing was hilarious (as it was last year). the ones doing all this are amazing
We've come a long way from a Charlie Brown Xmas -- remember when commercialism (and not fascism) was the problem?
Good times. Sigh.
@@carolyntalbot947 Well, 2019 was a little rough for me, too, going back even to October of 2018. I was in the hospital for several months with severe bronchial troubles, only to have my husband checked in just before I was sent home. He died in 2019 following a third stroke. So I had more to adjust to other than the Lockdown. I am not allowed to go anywhere except to medical appointments! Well, at least we have a string of lights over the fireplace, lots of hot drinks, and a tiny Christmas tree diorama with a Santa and tiny gifts. My son will be cooking us a pair of Cornish hens for Christmas dinner. We will have to share with our furballs. We'll buy our own presents for ourselves, via online shopping. Makes me feel good. I am determined to have a merry Christmas regardless, and no Grinch will steal Christmas this year.
@@daisybtoes Merry Christmas to you and your family. May the year ahead be a better lot for you... and for the rest of us. God bless you.
*A Charlie Brown D-Day*

I died.
Trump has been an experience I hope this country never repeats.
Please don't jinx it.
PLEASE.
Why limit that wish to just the country? Hope that all of history to come never sees so disgusting a repeat, as Donald (the Orange-man, Nero-reborn and master of the Oompah-Loompah's) Trump again.

What a sweet gift from the brilliant staff and associates of the Colbert team! So beautifully crafted! It really feels like Christmas is here indeed--now that we are actually beginning to see the beginning of the end of a truly horrible, prolonged Trump regime hijacking of the essential goodness of America and the truest American ideals...GOD BLESS US ALL, EVERYONE!

Why is no one talking about the pixelated privates on the Spirit of Christmas painting?!
Ever since I was a child, the scene where the Nazi's face melts after he looks into the Ark gave me nightmares. So believe me when I say that it would be worth it to see it happen to Mitch McConnell
Mitch looked like the melting Nazi even before they got to that part.
For another Stephen Spielberg shoutout, Mitch's outfit makes him look like Judge Doom.

This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The blending of so many memorable movie scenes along with the underlying theme, masterfully done, a modern classic. Let's hope this sticks around for a while, not just in the National Film Registry but on accessible media. Kind of like the Rudolph thing and It's a Wonderful Life. So well done, looking forward to seeing it many times in years to come. Thanks to all in its production, you've given some levity and charm to a difficult time.
