Samantha Bee pokes fun at Trump's made-up vocabulary in this "Full Frontal" exposé

In a segment that's "part news, part performance art, entirely nonsense," Full Frontal host Samantha Bee orchestrated a takedown of Trump's increasingly unintelligible speeches with a piece titled "Fantastic Words and Where Not to Find Them."

With the help of three very serious interpretive actors, a dramatic drum beat, and some artistic black-and-white photography, Bee presented a journey into the "semantic vortex" where "language is fractured and unmoored from meaning" - actually, that's just the world we live in now, where words can mean absolutely nothing when they're coming from the President's mouth (or Twitter account, #covfefe).

As usual, Bee presents a pretty vicious critique of Trump that's wrapped up in the guise of a hilariously offbeat bit - it's an incredibly funny few minutes of TV, but it also follows in Bee's continuing tradition of providing some of the most informed, insightful take-downs on late night.
