On Wednesday evening, one day after John Lithgow debuted his unhinged Rudy Giuliani impersonation, Stephen Colbert kicked off The Late Show with a series of digs at—you guessed it—Donald J. Trump.
“I tell you one thing, you have got to hand it to the guy—he is willing to call his most disastrous blunders his greatest victories,” offered Colbert. “Case in point: Trump’s complete betrayal of our Kurdish allies after his phone call with Turkish president Erdogan. This is so despised on both sides of the aisle that the House voted to condemn Trump’s actions 354-60. That is the sort of bipartisanship you only see in, like, naming a post office.”
“It could be argued that getting out of the endless wars in the Middle East is not a bad thing, but the way Trump did this, make no mistake who wins here: his buddy, Vladimir Putin,” added Colbert, “who yesterday met with Erdogan to carve up Syria like a Christmas shawarma.”
