Late Night Laughs: Around the White House
› Earlier tonight, President Trump and his family lit the national Christmas tree. Of course, Trump refused to light it until everyone agreed his tree had the most lights in history — “800 million billion.” — Jimmy Fallon
› Trump also sent a thoughtful tweet about coming together, putting aside our differences and remembering what the holidays are all about. I’m just kidding. He insulted the leaders of two countries on Twitter. — Jimmy Fallon
› Trump lashed out at British Prime Minister Theresa May on Twitter, but he actually tagged the wrong Theresa May. When he heard that he sent an embarrassing tweet, he said, “You’re going to have to be way more specific.” — Jimmy Fallon
› Two large properties associated with Donald Trump have decided to disassociate from him. One is the Trump SoHo hotel, and the other is the Kremlin. — Conan O’Brien
› The New York Times is reporting that Donald Trump is expected to fire his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in the coming weeks. … Tillerson says he’s not paying attention to the rumors. And as the former head of ExxonMobil, he’s used to ignoring lots of leaks. — James Corden
› President Trump commented on North Korea’s missile launch today, saying, quote, “We’ll take care of it.” That’s it? I have to say, I don’t find it comforting that the president talked about enemy missiles the same way a dermatologist talks about a weird mole. — Seth Meyers
› A sixth woman has come forward to accuse Senator Al Franken of sexually inappropriate behavior. On the plus side, if Franken resigns as senator from Minnesota, he could still be elected the senator from Alabama. — Conan O’Brien
