0:00.0 | Hey everyone, this is The Last Laugh. I'm Matt Wilstein from The Daily Beast, and as we head into the weekend, here's a little taste of what's coming your way on next week's show. I just finished taping a super fun interview with Sarah Cooper that will air on Donald Trump's last full day in office. |
0:23.1 | I asked her if she has a parting message for the president she has been making fun of on |
0:27.6 | TikTok over the last year, and here's what she told me. |
0:30.7 | So the reports are that he's going to leave Washington on Wednesday morning before the inauguration, |
0:36.7 | obviously, he's not going to the inauguration. |
0:38.1 | Do you have sort of a farewell message to Trump on his way out of town? |
0:42.3 | What a petty bitch. That is all I have to say. What a petty bitch. Like you can't even shake |
0:49.1 | the man's hand. I mean, come on. I mean, it's so on brand, though. It's so on brand. I mean, it really is. |
0:55.6 | I mean, it really is like if he had been gracious and conceded and then, you know, this |

1:06.8 | he did pivoted, you know, but he never pivoted. So I'm happy. He never pivoted. There was never a new tone. |
1:12.3 | No, never a new tone. Even though people are still saying it on cable news, still giving him been this reckoning. I mean, he didn't change, but there has been some change |
1:27.7 | in the sense that Republicans speaking out against him, Twitter, you know, deleting his account, |
1:32.3 | all this stuff that didn't really seem possible a couple weeks ago. I mean, what's been your |
1:36.3 | reaction to that? Yeah. I mean, the leading Twitter, I didn't think they would ever do that. And |
1:42.5 | I saw an image with all of the social networks that have banned him. And it was like Pinterest. You know, like all of these. You didn't even know he was on. |
1:51.8 | Didn't even realize he was using Pinterest to help, you know, promote himself. But obviously it makes sense. I guess cynically, I think, why now? You know, because he had been promoting so much hatred |
2:03.0 | and violence for so long. It feels a little late. It feels a little late. It feels that, you know, |
2:07.6 | cynically, I'm like, oh, they felt like maybe they were going to be exposed if any more violence |
2:12.2 | happened or they know that Democrats are coming in and they're going to be in charge now. So they're |
2:16.0 | trying to curry favor with Democrats, you know. |
2:18.9 | So, but for whatever the reason, I think it was definitely the best. |
