Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
‘The Clueless Klux Klan’
On Monday’s “Daily Show,” Jon Stewart showed a montage of speakers from the weekend’s Trump rally at Madison Square Garden, including those who called Kamala Harris the devil and the Antichrist and said she had “pimp handlers.” Tucker Carlson called her “Samoan-Malaysian-low-I.Q.” and issued a high-pitched cackle.
“Now, generally, that’s a lineup that you see outside Madison Square Garden yelling at strangers as they try to get inside Madison Square Garden,” Stewart said.
“And let me just say, how dare they desecrate the stage that the Piano Man has consecrated?” — JON STEWART, showing an image of Billy Joel
“Former President Trump held a rally yesterday at Madison Square Garden in front of a crowd of 20,000 people, and it was the most vitriolic, rage-filled group of white people in that building since the last Rangers game.” — SETH MEYERS
“Everyone was on the edge of their seat waiting for the Menendez brothers to come out.” — JIMMY FALLON
“The Clueless Klux Klan showed up in force for what I think may have been the nuttiest Trump event of all time.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Trump’s rally was described as unhinged, crude and racist — as opposed to the stable, polite and tolerant Trump rallies we’re accustomed to.” — JIMMY FALLON
The Punchiest Punchlines (Hulkster Edition)
“That is just sad, to see an old man like that. We’ve all had that moment, when you have to look at your grandpa and say, ‘Peepaw, it’s just not safe anymore. We’re going to have to take away the keys to your shirt.’” — STEPHEN COLBERT, after showing a clip of Hulk Hogan struggling to tear his shirt off at the Trump rally
“You know you’re getting old when you lose a wrestling match to your tank top.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“I warned him not to wear the Beefy T, but nobody listens.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Oof, that was like watching my kids try to take off a sweater: ‘There’s a zipper! Just undo the zipper. You look like you’re having a hockey fight with yourself.’” — SETH MEYERS
“But at least it was worth the wait, because when Hulk Hogan got it off, it revealed a … shirt under that shirt?” — SETH MEYERS
“It’s so unsettling when wrestlers can’t land their signature move. It would be like Dwayne Johnson yelling, ‘Can you smell what The Rock is cooking? I can’t ’cause it’s allergy season, I’m all stuffed up.’” — SETH MEYERS

On Saturday’s “Have I Got News For You,” Roy Wood Jr. quizzed Michael Ian Black, Amber Ruffin, Larry Wilmore and former Representative Adam Kinzinger about a hot new buzzword: “sanewashing.”
