On Trevor Noah

I think he is doing great - Thursdays show was top notch

the segment where he compared Trump to African Presidents was very funny and extremely well done

i wish people would allow him a little time to settle in to the role - he is very talented but under a lot of pressure to live up to Jon Stewart

One of his first jokes on his debut was how he always wanted 2 things - his own show and indoor toilets - and he is comfortable with one of them

He is going to do just fine
