Despite Trump wanting everyone to talk about Obama, the main story of the moment continues to be the president's friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, with a recent Wall Street Journal report claiming that Attorney General Pam Bondi informed Trump that his name appears in the Epstein files back in May, and a CNN report digging up new photos and video footage of the two men together in the '90s and '00s.

During his second day hosting The Daily Show, Josh Johnson goes through these damning new stories one by one.

"It's getting to the point where it's harder and harder to find a photo of Donald Trump without Jeffrey Epstein in it. As Donald Trump, your only hope is to be like, 'Hey, I take pictures with lots of people! Alright?'" says Johnson, before bringing up a grim image carousel of the president with other disgraced celebrities. "I'm in pictures with OJ, Diddy, I'm in pictures with Harvey Weinstein. That's not helping, I'm gonna stop!"

Johnson isn't the only late night host talking about this, either. Over on the Late Show, Stephen Colbert is continuing with his scorched earth coverage of the president.
