NBC’s Seth Meyers mourned on Thursday’s edition of Late Night that our “stupid system” has enabled Donald Trump to escape his legal difficulties and that there are those in the Democratic Party who think the reason why he won is because they are too far left.

...

Later, Meyers addressed Rep. Richie Torres’s statement that “Donald Trump has no greater friend than the far-left.”

Torres’s statement focused on left-wing culture war nonsense from defunding the police, anti-Israel “From the river to the sea,” and “latinx” radicals, but Meyers took it differently, “You think Kamala Harris was too far left? She campaigned with Liz Cheney. The only way she could have run a more mainstream, centrist campaign is if she formed a Huey Lewis cover band with Mitt Romney and did a cameo on Law & Order. I mean, she praised Dick Cheney, for crying out loud. And personally, you know, I'm shocked that didn't work. I assume there was a groundswell of support for Old Growler here.”
