I never watch Seth Myers, but after seeing this I might well start.

Some highlights:
"So Trump says he saw this event that never happened on television," "But let's remember Trump also said that he met Vladimir Putin when they were on the same episode of '60 Minutes' even though they filmed their segments 'thousands of miles apart.' So Trump's understanding of how TV works is not 100% trustworthy."
"But Trump doesn't care about that," Meyers said. "When confronted about his lies, he doubles down. And much like the KFC Double Down, each one is getting harder to digest.
"What's scary is that Trump has crossed the threshold," "The threshold from fun wild-card candidate who said crazy things and made debates watchable to someone who's spreading dangerous rhetoric."
In the past I’ve spoken out when I’ve thought the term Fascism was raised incorrectly in political situations. Make no mistake, though, the word applies to this dangerous man. Be it his attacks on any and all minority populations to his lies and manipulation of basic facts, this is a dangerous man that must be stopped.
The problem is, the polls I’ve seen (Such as from real clear politics show him either up or trending up.
I am discouraged. Not by the fact that I doubt we cannot beat him. I doubt that this is an issue. What causes me worry is that there exists in the United States such a significant percentage of the population who hears his views and says “Yea...I can get into that”
He is one scary dude...and what is even scarier, to me, is that he has followers.
