After hearing about the Koch brothers’ plan to spend nearly $1 billion on the 2016 election cycle, “The Nightly Show” host Larry Wilmore decided to make a statement against the billionaire duo.
“I’m sorry, I can’t get behind these guys, this just doesn’t smell right to me,” he said, declaring a personal boycott of all Koch brothers products. “So what do they make again?”
First up was Dixie cups, which was no problem for Wilmore, who crumpled one up and threw it behind his desk. Next was greeting cards, no problem since Wilmore said, “I forget everyone’s birthday anyway!”
Wilmore paused when he got to Angel Soft toilet paper, until he remembered that his brands were Soft ‘N Gentle and Quilted Northern. Then to his dismay, those brands also flashed on screen.
The host finally gave up when he discovered Koch’s connection to Lycra, “the world’s most comfortable fabric.”
