Both of the boys are in studio this week, and thank god, it's a big ol' show. Donald Trump gets bailed out of his bail-bond by a billionaire who made his bones on sub-prime car loans. Because of course he is. Then, the Right is reacting in a totally normal and not-at-all weird way to the solar eclipse, AI is here to save fast-food, retired Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer chimes in with an ode to going to the opera with his best friends - the Justices who want to destroy democracy.
