Larry Wilmore catalogued all the ways former reality television star Donald Trump should have tanked his presidential campaign on “The Nightly Show” on Monday night.

And yet…

“Let me sum up what we’ve gone through in the last month and a half,” Wilmore said. “So far, Trump’s called Mexican rapists, he attacked one of America’s most beloved POWs, he gave out a sitting senator’s phone number out of spite and now he basically blamed a women’s tough questioning on her period. And his polls just go higher and higher.”

But Wilmore has a message for American voters.

“America, I am talking to you directly: Stop it. Stop it. America, listen to me. Stop it,” Wilmore said.

The debate asked one question about racial justice for just 31 seconds. Then the debate went to commercial, a trailer for the new movie about hiphop group N.W.A., “Straight Outta Compton”

“Black lives matter when they’re paying for ad time,” Wilmore said.
