Larry Wilmore decided to get straight to the heavy material on the second night of Comedy Central’s post-Stephen Colbert era “The Nightly Show.”

“I would say enough have come forward, I mean the current tally stands at 35 women,” Willmore said on Tuesday.

“Let’s understand this number, okay,” he continued. “That’s like if Bill Cosby drugged and raped every U.S. President from George Washington to John F. Kennedy.”

Wilmore proceeded to let out a series of Cosby-esque growls for about a minute.

“Let’s consider for a second that Cosby didn’t do it,” he said. After a clock appeared on screen and counted down a literal second, Wilmore said, “okay, we’re done.”
