Play of the Day: Diamond Joe is Here to Cure Cancer
The vice president got a big assignment from his boss.
Hillary Clinton has been losing ground to Bernie Sanders in many recent polls. The Tonight Show's Jimmy Fallon joked about the Democratic frontrunner's personality, implying she made a supernatural deal to become president.
Late-night shows joked a lot about Barack Obama's final State of the Union address Wednesday night. Conan O'Brien joked about Donald Trump's response to the speech, while Late Show's Stephen Colbert noted Trump's negative presence in both Obama's address and the GOP response.
Obama's big proposal to have Joe Biden lead the charge to cure cancer was a big punchline for the Comedy Central shows. The Daily Show's Trevor Noah joked about Obama shifting the big project to Biden while Obama leaves town, while The Nightly Show's Larry Wilmore joked that it was akin to a teacher assigning a big assignment for summer break.
