On Monday’s “Nightly Show,” host Larry Wilmore took a gander at the latest and least-known GOP candidates in anticipation of Thursday’s Republican debate.

In his segment, “Blacklash 2016: The Unblackening,” Wilmore featured Jim Gilmore’s run for the presidency, as well as a rarely seen candidate, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal.

“Jim Gilmore has a bigger chance of winning ‘The Hunger Games’ than winning the presidential election,” Wilmore quipped.

The former Virginia governor is separating himself from the pack, Wilmore added, saying: “Gilmore is the first 007 presidential candidate, and by 007, I mean he has .007 percentage in the polls.”

Plus, watch Wilmore take on Donald Trump’s latest obligatory racist tweet.
