Trevor Noah Reacts to the First Presidential Debate
On Chris Wallace's moderating: "Chris Wallace, thank you for your service, and I hope you have a lot of money for your therapy. You made a valiant effort, but you were not ready for this, because no human being could've been ready for this. They don't need a moderator for this; they need a UFC ref."
On the lack of commercial breaks: "I have never — and I mean never — wanted to see a commercial break more badly in my life. I cannot do 90 straight minutes of this sh*t ever again. It was brutal. There's gotta be a commercial break every five minutes, and during those commercial breaks, every ad should be for antidepressants or some drug that has side effects that make you forget the last four years."
On the lack of fact checkers: "Debates need fact checkers, because otherwise, people can just stand on the stage and say whatever they want, and there are no consequences— zero, nada, zilch. Every time a candidate says a lie, there should be some sort of sign that they lied. Maybe a brick should come down on their side of the screen like Tetris, and as they lie, it'll just gradually build up higher and higher until it covers their face."
