On Tuesday night, Stephen Colbert lost it.
Accidentally sitting next to a bottle of champagne, Late show The host began his soliloquy by saying, “Oh, what a strange, troubled world some people would like. Yesterday, I was pouring champagne to toast the administration, and today “- breaking the bottle, holding its broken end, and saying -” If you come close to me I’ll cut you off, because there’s crazy sneezing! ”
Colbert was furious at Trump’s “baseless allegations of non-existent fraud” in the 2020 presidential election, as well as instructions to his staff to stop any and all cooperation with President-elect Biden’s transition team.
On top of that, Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, other Republican politicians, and Trump bootleggers on Fox News are echoing the president’s dangerous and completely false claim that the election results are illegal. This Washington Post Top Republican officials have been quoted as saying, “What’s the harm in making fun of him for a while? No one seriously thinks the results will change. ”
“Should we organize our entire political system to alleviate the wounded feelings of the person who has lost?” Before referring to Polpio’s statement, Colbert asked, “There will be a smooth transition to Trump’s second administration.” (Pompeo Repeat the statement The next day Fox News’ Brett Bayer.)
“No. Wrong. First, there will be no Tiffany victory in 2032 until ‘Trump can do another administration, unless America makes Mac again.’ Second, whatever this administration did was never easy. He couldn’t even manage a smooth transition from stage to ground level. Third, your person is lost. Fourth, if it were a joke, you just bombed so hard that you violated the Geneva Convention. This is dangerous! He is the Secretary of State! It introduces America to other countries that have just given the message that perhaps the person who has lost will not leave. ”
“Mr. Secretary, do you know all those dictators?” Colbert throws photos of North Korea’s Kim Jong-un, Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Saudi Arabia’s Mohammed bin Salman kissing rings. “It wasn’t supposed to be an internship!”
