in your beautiful city. we're having the best week we could have imagined. now let's get to the news. donald trump told supporters last night to go out and vote on november 28th. [ light laughter ] when election day is actually november 8th. unless november 8th is just a lie being spread by the liberal media. you know what? [ light laughter ] if you're a trump supporter you should probably just go with whatever he says. [ cheers a donald trump, last night, criticized republicans who are dropping support for his campaign saying, "i wouldn't want to be in a foxhole with a lot of these people." trump made the comment while talking to everyone's favorite foxhole, bill o'reilly. [ cheers and applause ] president obama yesterday criticized republicans for donald trump and asked voters, "why did it take so long for them to finally walk away? yes, seriously, at this point even trump has -- >> more than the bush tax cuts by at least a factor of two. >> seth: i don't want to -- i don't want to do this anymore. i don't want to do this anymore. [ light laughter ] trump campaign manager kelly ann conway said this morning that republicans should decide whether or not they support donald trump and "stop pussyfooting around." [ light laughter ] cool choice of words. [ light laughter ] that's the worst choice of words since abraham lincoln said, i need slavery like i need a hole in the head. [ laughter and applause ] today is our third day working in washington, d.c. [ cheers ] three days working in d.c. eric trump sen't out a campaign e-mail this morning claiming momentum was on donald trump's side. unfortunately it's this kind of momentum. ? >> meep, meep! [ laughter and applause ] >> seth: today was yom kippur, or as gary johnson calls it, "the capital of thailand?" [ laughter and applause ] i think that's right. "playboy" has announced it will begin selling digital copies of the magazine on itunes and google play. "what's playboy?" asked a teen boy watching free pornography on the internet. [ light laughter ] please tell me they're using podiums said the chair trump was humping. [ laughter and applause ] and finally, former house speaker john boehner says he still plans on voting for trump even though he said, "donald wasn't my first choice, wasn't my second choice, for that choice." "who was your fourth choice?" whispered jeb. [ laughter and applause ] ladies and gentlemen, we have an outstanding show for you tonight. you're here for a good one. he's the vice president of the united states, joe biden is back on the show. [ cheers and applause ] she's the second lady of the united states, dr. jill biden is also with us tonight. fantastic country singer and songwriter sturgill simpson is here tonight. [ cheers and applause ] and i went to his concert here in d.c. last night, it was incredible, he has a fantastic band, a great new album, and i'm so excited that you're all going to hear him tonight. now, before we get to all that fun stuff, as donald trump's poll numbers continue to tank, hillary clinton is looking to shore up support among any democrats who might still be wavering amid new leaked documents that reveal her coziness with big banks. for more on this it's time for "closer look." ? [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: you would think at this point hillary could just kick back with a glass of chardonnay and her laptop and just keep refreshing 538.com until election day. [ light laughter ] after all she's running against a lying, racist, buffoon who doubles as billy bush's wingman. he was such a menace to democracy he doesn't even know the date of the election, november 8th, as he proved at a you get out and vote november 28th. >> seth: i can't wait to hear trump on november 9th. cnn is so biased, they're saying hillary's already won the election even though it's 19 days away. [ cheers and applause ] so that's the competition right now. still, hillary's ties to wall street have caused her problems with at least one constituency, and that's young voters, some of whom have turned to third-party candidates as a result, which is especially disheartening when you imagine gary johnson's take on wall street. well, is it a wall or a street? [ light laughter ] is it both? because that sounds dangerous! now hillary could speak directly to those voters' concerns about what they see as a fundamentally corrupt economic system and offer ways to address that corruption. but nah. instead her campaign has asked for help from a surrogate many young voters may not even be old roll out her brand-new secret weapon to win over millennials. al gore. [ light laughter ] >> seth: al gore is your secret weapon to win over young people? what, you couldn't get matlock? [ laughter and applause ] [ cheers ] and when he campaigned with hillary yesterday, al gore was as exciting as ever. >> for those of you who are younger thyo remember the election of 2000 and what happened here in florida and across the country. [ audience boos ] but take it from me, it was a very close election. [ light laughter ] >> seth: oh, al gore, yeah. you know, the reason he's been out of the political spotlight is he's working his side job as the lunesta moth. [ laughter and applause ] okay. with her will help with millennials as long as there aren't, you know, more e-mails out there about her cozy relationship with wall street. >> thousands of hacked e-mails from her campaign chairman john podesta have been posted now online by wikileaks. they include what appear to be excerpts from transcripts of closed-door speeches that clinton gave to wall street companies after leaving the u.s. state department. >> seth: at this point hillary e-mails get leaked so often she should just give us her password and let us log in whenever we want. had to guess we'd figure it out. [ laughter and applause ] now, a lot of the leaked e-mails have nothing to do with wall street and are in fact pretty routine. in 2014 e-mail exchange, for example, a long-time clinton friend and ad maker, pitched possible slogans to sum up her candidacy and create excitement for her campaing. and this may surprise you, they were all terrible. "neither change nor continuity but the different way, the new and grit. we will build, not the partisanship, but rather the ship of state. flying the american dream flag." [ light laughter ] the ship of state? flying the american dream flag? that sounds like a bad japanese translation of a lee greenwood song. [ laughter and applause ] and that, may i remind you, that was from someone in advertising. they were probably responsible for the famous ad teddy grahams, the cracker beast who, within each, beats the heart of flavor. but the biggest revelations in these e-mails were the excerpts from what are allegedly hillary clinton's paid speeches to goldman sachs and other wall street banks and they contain some very revealing tidbits. >> hackers releasing purported excerpts of her paid speeches to big banks. clinton saying when it comes to policy "you need both a public and private position." in another speech clinton appears to contradict her own public stance on the hot-button market with open trade and open borders." >> seth: now, the clinton campaign has tried to avoid commenting on these documents and implied that some of them might even be fake. a line running mate tim kaine tried on cnn on sunday without much success. >> i don't think we can dignify documents dumped by wikileaks and just assume they're all accurate and true. >> is this document then, is it accurate? did she tell brazilian bankers that -- >> i have no way of knowing that. i have no way of knowing it. [ laughter ] >> seth: oh, oh, yeah? oh, yeah, jake? well, what if i'm too afraid to ask her, huh? i'm tim kaine, i'm not going to ask hillary clinton a question. [ light laughter ] but hillary herself seemed to confirm the authenticity of the documents when she was asked in the debate about her comments on having both a public and private position. and it gave trump an opportunity to jump in. >> as i recall, that was abraham lincoln after having seen the wonderful steven spielberg movie called "lincoln." >> she lied. now she's blaming the lie on the late, great abraham lincoln. [ light laughter ] >> seth: who says the late, great abraham lincoln? [ laughter and applause ] trump talks about lincoln like he was a hall of fame pitcher for the brooklyn dodgers. and lincoln throws one inside, he's keeping them honest. but it turns out hillary really was telling the truth, because in the actual transcript of that speech she says, "if you saw the spielberg movie 'lincoln' and how he was maneuvering and working to get the 13th amendment passed politics is like sausage being made, we usually end up where we need to be but if people are watching, then people get a little nervous to say the least. so you need both a public and private position." so i guess the real scandal here is that bankers paid thousands of dollars for hillary clinton's movie reviews. in short, "sully" will goose your heart rate and then bring you in for a smooth landing, i give it 2 1/2 pantsuits, that will be $600,000. [ laughter and applause ] nonetheless, nonetheless there does seem to be a divergence in some cases between what hillary told wall street bankers behind closed doors and what she said publicly. for example, hillary insisted she's tough on wall street, yet when she gave paid speeches to those wall street banks it a slightly different message. >> a passage where she contemplates just how to regulate wall street reform in a paid speech to wall street bankers. "there's nothing magic about regulations," clinton reportedly says. "too much is bad, too little is bad." >> she also allegedly said it was an oversimplification to blame the 2008 financial crisis on the u.s. banking system. >> then clinton reportedly suggests wall street insiders industry better than anybody are the people who work in the industry." >> seth: you went to wall street and told them they should regulate themselves? you think billionaires regulating themselves is a good idea? have you met your opponent? >> and you can tell them to go [ muted ] themselves. >> seth: i know, i know. he's not a billionaire. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] so l wall street already has incredible sway over policymaking. we don't need to give them more influence. these e-mails underscore just how important it is for people like bernie sanders and elizabeth warren to keep up the pressure on hillary if she becomes president. of course it's still within the realm of possibility that trump could win if he gets his voters to the polls on election day which is -- >> november 28th. >> seth: okay, never mind. this has been "a closer look." ? [ cheers and applause ] we'll be right back with more from washington, d.c. and the ? >> seth: so in addition to the show this week, in d.c. has been filled with cultural landmarks, historic monuments, and world class museums and now with the help of amazon echo, a voice controlled speaker that can do all sorts of things hands free, i'd like to tell you what i've ar our nations capital. alexa, dim the lights. alexa, play "america the beautiful." >> "america the beautiful" from your library. >> seth: this is what i've learned -- if you're going to use the white house bathroom, knock first. and if you think you can outrun the secret service, you can't. [ light laughter ] this is what i've learned. alexa stop.

[ cheers and applause ] they have been fantastic this week. our first guest tonight was one of the guests on our very first episode of "late night." we're very honored to have him back. he's also the vice president of the united states, which is also quite an accomplishment as well. [ laughter ] please welcome back to the show our friend vice president joe biden, everybody! [ cheers and applause ] ? >> seth: welcome back. >> good to be back. >> seth: i'm so very happy to have you here. >> i'm delighted to be here. >> seth: you know, it's great to have you on television because, let's be honest, you are a pro now at television. you are. let's just look at some of the accomplishments you have. "parks and rec," nailed it, absolutely nailed it. [ cheers and applause ] "law and order: svu," nailed that. [ cheers and applause ] that's really exciting. [ cheers and applause ] but i thought this was all last year's stuff. but it turns out we found a tape from senator joe biden. had a cameo on "where in the world is carmen san diego." >> that's true. >> seth: we're going to show the clip. because you had a natural gift even at that young age. let's take a look. >> i understand our next urgent information is coming from ashley simms next, this is senator joe biden, what can you tell us, senator? >> greg, senate leaders have he's in jackson hole. now make sure it's the last stop for the crook. remember the acme triangle of excellence. vigilance, dedication, and courage. i'm counting on you. [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: nailed it. >> i have one regret about that show. >> seth: what is the regret? >> i wish that donald trump had listened to us. we know where chechnya is, where any of these places -- you know what i mean? >> seth: yeah, if everybody had watched this show. >> he would have had a better geography lesson. >> seth: now i think the television show right now everybody seems to be watching the most are the debates. and i have to ask, how much do you wish you could debate donald trump? [ cheers and applause ] >> i think he'd be too easy. i want someone like sarah palin. [ laughter ] >> seth: yeah, exactly. >> you know what i mean? >> seth: you want that up there. >> it would be -- i don't know what in the hell it would be. i mean, it's a -- you watch and it you go, that can't be happening. [ light laughter ] >> seth: yeah. now for you a malarkey is term you use, and i think we all enjoy when you use it. but, you know, recently donald trump said that he considers himself a blue-collar worker. >> what a bunch of malarkey. >> seth: yeah, there you go. >> i mean -- god. i -- look, i just -- he -- it's -- he has no notion -- by the way, it doesn't make him a bad guy, but he doesn't have a like to be a blue-collar worker. i mean, i just -- and the way he treats -- he says like, for example, when he said, you know, well, hillary said you stiffed all those workers. when you went bankrupt. and he said, well, maybe he didn't like the quality of their work. here's the one i love the best. workers make too much money. >> seth: yeah. >> talk about making a worker blue. i tell you what, man. i mean, this guy is -- i shouldn't be -- i should be quiet. >> seth: well, i want to ask you this question. [ cheers and applause ] >> i'm gonna get myself in trouble. >> seth: we admire your restraint. >> i should be quiet. i'd like to have him see my neighborhood. >> seth: here's the question about just the relationship and i know it must be different while you're campaigning as opposed to when you're actually in office between a president and a vice president. but he was recently saying, he said in the debate that he and vice president mike pence -- or his nominee mike pence, hadn't talked about syria, and had a different opinion about it. is that a normal thing to not him to say that so mike wouldn't be embarrassed. >> seth: i see. just to get it out. >> that's my guess. >> seth: hey, if anybody asks just tell them we don't talk that much. [ light laughter ] >> we don't agree very much. no, it's -- it's a frightening notion to think that the vice president and the president don't at least understand each other's position. sometimes you disagree. but, you know, it's -- the idea that you don't have any idea >> seth: yeah. on a very -- this is, you know, a serious note that i think came out of the tapes last week. you were one of the first people to point out that it was not locker room language, in fact, but it was the language of sexual assault. and someone who wrote the violence against women act, were you just -- >> absolutely. [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: what did you find more stunning, the use of the language or the fact that e defending it for not being what you called it out as? >> first of all, what i found astounding is that he would so publicly, even though it was in a -- it was even -- no matter who he was talking to, that he would acknowledge that he engaged in the textbook definition of sexual assault. he didn't say, you know, i go up and i ask. he said, i go up and grab and i can do this and i -- then i see in the paper today one of the teen america, the teen girls, three, four, five in a room, they were getting dressed, they were naked, he walked in, he said don't worry, girls, i've seen all this, and he stood there. i mean, this is absolutely outrageous behavior. and for us to -- i've spent most of my career trying to figure out how to begin to change the culture in this country so that we treat women with respect and with dignity. and this is -- [ cheers and applause ] seth, i know i get fairly passionate about this issue. but my dad, everybody asks, you know, why am i feeling so strongly about this, why did i write the act, it was my mother, my sister. thank god they weren't victimized. but my dad used to say the greatest sin of all is abuse of power. and the cardinal sin of all is a man raising his hand or taking advantage of a woman. talk about power. i'm a billionaire. i'm a star. i'm a celebrity. so i can go in, intimidate women into allowing me to assault them and assume they're not going to say anything. that is the ultimate abuse of power. and i don't think -- and i don't understand how anyone can remotely justify that. now, i can understand -- i can't understand, actually. [ laughter ] >> seth: yeah. i want to ask -- [ cheers and applause ] the tenor of this campaign, obviously it feels like almost every year people say, this is the worst it's ever been. you've been doing this 30 years now -- >> thank you for saying only 30. >> seth: yeah, well, i'm trying to -- near 20 years. but you -- is it true that your first election that you won, you actually felt so bad about the fact that you defeated your opponent that it made you cry, it brought you to tears? >> well, it -- i did feel -- here's what happened. i got elected in a year that richard nixon won over 60-some percent of the vote in my state. i ran against a really decent, decent man. he fought in world war ii. he was a three-term congressman, two-term governor, three-term senator. and he was a decent man. but i disagreed with him on the war in vietnam and a few other very important things. and what happened was, his staff around him while he was working in washington, no one took me seriously to begin with. september, we had -- my sister had run an incredible campaign for me. but together -- we had 20,000 volunteers. and we knew, and everyone around him knew we were going to be more of a threat. no one ever told him. i could tell when he called to concede that he was stunned as to what happened. and i felt he was a decent man. i felt badly for him. we have this thing on thursday after the elections since 1792 where the winner and loser goes down to the southernmost county, gets in a wagon, it's a tradition, the winner and loser, and rides through town to show that we're going to bury the hatchet, everything is okay. and so i called him, the kind of man he is, i called him on wednesday and said, senator boggs, i'm not feeling well, i don't feel well at all, so i'm not going to be there for returns day. there was silence. and he said, joe, i was proud to run every time i won. i'll be proud to ride with you even though i lost. that's how politics used to be in my state. [ cheers and applause ] but you know, i don't think there's anything wrong in recognizing the contribution, the sacrifices, the character of someone you're running against. and when a person is really a solid person, i just felt -- i did at that moment, i felt very >> seth: well that is -- that shows your empathy which i think we need a little bit more of in politics. i'd love you to stick around because we have this great lady coming on, dr. biden. and i think you're going to really love her. so, we'll be right back! [ cheers and applause ] >> i love her more than she loves me. >> seth: more of joe biden as well as dr. jill biden here on "late night." ? >>la in washington d.c. is sponsored by amazon echo. inside the rack houses of jim beam thousands of barrels lay silent aging, building a fuller smoother flavor that only comes from being aged four long years at jim beam our history is made from the inside how will you make yours? now try jim beam apple poured over ice and serve with club soda it's endless shrimp at red lobster. with another new flavor you never saw coming... grilled, glazed korean bbq shrimp. and try as much as you want of flavors like new parmesan peppercorn shrimp. here i am... building a jet engine. we've been hearing so much about how you're a digital company, so you can see our confusion. ge is an industrial company that actually builds world-changing machines. machines that can also communicate digitally. like robots. did you build that robot? that's not a robot, that's my coworker earl. he builds jet engines with his human hands. this is the story of fall's biggest fan. autumn was born on the first day of fall. and from an early age she learned to love the season. leaf piles and pumpkin pies. hot apple cider and cozy sweaters. which brings us to the very moment she fell for fall all over again. was she expecting to find the perfect designer boots at such an amazing price? no. but that's the beauty of a store full of surprises. you never know what you're gonna find, marshalls. your surprise is waiting. electrical charges live at the heart of every hybrid. only a few... truly move us. ? electrifying the road forward for over a decade with over one million on the road, lexus hybrids are ?

[ cheers and applause ] and i can't imagine there's a squad people wouldn't want to be on more. >> joe: none that i can say. >> seth: oh, good. >> really? >> joe: they're all endearing. >> seth: they're all endearing. >> yes, yeah. >> seth: but you can't say it. there you go. >> he's not trump. >> seth: okay, there you go. [ laughter and applause ] so this is, last time you were on the show you talked about the fact that you have continued to be a professor at a community college. >> uh-huh, yeah. >> seth: i went up to the green room to say hello to you before the show and you had a stack of papers. >> i always, always, i teach english so -- >> seth: were you actually grading papers? >> yes, yes. i have conferences tomorrow. >> seth: that's fantasti >> joe: seth, we get off the plane in world capitals, she'll walk off the plane with all the press there carrying her bag of papers. i said, for god's sake, jill, just leave the papers for a minute. [ laughter ] you think i'm joking. she marks in the limo going in. i mean, it's like -- >> seth: i would just feel bad as a student who wrote a paper that has to compete with the fact that you're in paris or something. [ laughter ] and now, i want to talk about, you know, obviously you live this fascinating life. you are, you have a lot of sports in your life. plays with president obama's daughter on the same basketball team? >> that's right, yeah. same school. >> seth: and every now and then president obama will coach this team? >> yes, he does. >> seth: i'm fascinated, in what kind, what kind of coach is the president? >> he's a great coach. he's a dad, yeah. >> seth: okay, yeah.

[ laughter ] the guy's looking at him. and he goes, you know. i said, mr. president, barack, you know. >> seth: but i have also heard that you are, of the two of you, you are the more vocal fan. >> i am, that's right. well, i'm a philly girl. so i support all our philly teams.
