Can’t take any more news about Donald Trump’s alleged history of sexual assault? We’ve got a four-minute reprieve for you in the form of a Funny or Die video.

The satirical video ends with an impassioned plea by will.i.am to vote for Hillary in November.

“Donald Trump does not look like the president of the United States of America, nor should he be,” will.i.am says. “If this was a TV show, maybe I would watch it, it would be pretty funny…this is real life with real life problems.”

We hear you, Will.

An earlier version of this article misstated the title of will.i.am’s video. We have corrected the error.
