00:00And now, 720 days, 88 criminal charges, 34 felony convictions,
00:05four indictments, two Democratic opponents, and one garbage truck later, here we are.
00:10Election day.
00:11Late night hosts are sharing their final messages and closing arguments ahead of election night.
00:16Over on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel urged viewers to move on already from Donald Trump.
00:21Imagine a world in which you wake up in the morning,
00:24you check the news, and no one says the words Donald or Trump.
00:27Just a bunch of normal.
00:31No arguing with your grandfather.
00:33You check the sports.
00:34Al Roker does the weather.
00:36Off to work you go.
00:37Delivering the message towards the end of his late night monologue,
00:40he likened Trump to a, quote, cancerous polyp.
00:43It feels like the whole country is waiting to get the results of a biopsy.
00:47Let's remove this cancerous polyp from our collective national colon and move on already.
00:53And don't forget to vote.
00:54Meanwhile, Stephen Colbert traveled to Philadelphia for his Election
00:58Eve Late Show interview with Tim Walz, where the high school football coach
01:02turned vice presidential candidate gave America a final pep talk ahead of Tuesday.
01:06Colbert asked Walz about his highs and lows of the campaign trail
01:10and if he was surprised by the tied election polls.
01:13It disappoints me, I think, because I think that the choice is so stark,
01:17but it's not surprising.
01:18The country's really divided.
01:19The segment ended with Walz's pep talk.
01:21We know that we're in the final two minutes of this game.
01:23We're going to give 110 percent.
01:27We know we have to leave it on the field because, look, democracy's at stake here.
01:31Colbert also chatted with John Oliver, playing a 2015 late show clip of Oliver saying
01:36he didn't care about Donald Trump announcing his first run for president.
01:402016 came and it has never left.
01:43We have been in the 2016 news cycle for eight years now.
01:48Elsewhere, Oliver made his own final election day plea to viewers
01:51on his own show for last week tonight.
01:53If Donald Trump loses this election, he's basically finished.
01:57I know, I know he'll put us through hell.
02:00He'll put us through hell before he left the stage.
02:03But when the dust settled, he'd have lost two elections in a row
02:07and we would be campaigning as an 82 year old next time.
02:10I think he'd be done.
02:12And doesn't that sound great?
