"We Need a Ballroom," Late Night MOCKS Trump's Solution to Gun Violence 💀 - LateNight



Immediately after the shooting incident that interrupted the White House Correspondents' dinner in Washington, DC. Trump proposes his solution to gun violence, "we need a ballroom" !? 🏛️💀

"Just dance like no one is shooting," Jon Stewart fires back.

"If you can come up with ANY other way to solve gun violence other than ballrooms…I'd love to hear it." Michael Kosta joked with a street guest 😭🔥

Checks out. That's our time. 💀

I don't THINK I was hallucinating. He said that $400 million for a ballroom for Trump was kustified because Thrump needs to be able to have a good time, too. My brother and I stared at each other open-mouthed. Not because security demanded it, bbut because Trump demanded to be able to have a good time.

If we as a nation didn't have any money or military clout, our importance on the world stage would be somewhere between that of Andorra and Grand Fenwick.
