Jessica Williams Leaving 'The Daily Show'

Jessica Williams left The Daily Show on Thursday, and the erstwhile correspondent is such a top-to-bottom delight that she got us a present: One last segment. As her final act of incredulity before leaving to work on her own pilot for Comedy Central, Williams talked to a bunch of numbskull Bernie Sanders supporters who are going to stick it to Hillary by voting Trump. Things then went from standard politics-level upsetting to straight up verklempt, as Trevor Noah and the rest of the correspondents said their goodbyes to a visibly moved Williams. They capped the farewell by amassing Williams in a group bear hug, because how better to bury your head in the sand about a sad goodbye than to bury your head in a bunch of people? Watch the parting of ways above, and Williams' last ride below.
