The Melania documentary has had its premiere, and all of the late night shows have similar questions.

"Amazon believed in this movie a lot. Like, suspiciously a lot," says Daily Show host Desi Lydic in the clip above. "Huh, why would Jeff Bezos, a billionaire who has tons of business with a government run by a famously-corrupt president known for loving bribes, overpay for a Melania documentary? Hmm, let me think."

Elsewhere, Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert also had similar things to say about Amazon's big paycheck — especially on the same week the company has cut 16,000 jobs.
