Adam Schiff’s On-Air Message To Trump Had Colbert’s Audience Cheering. Then He Went Further.
HuffPost
The California senator had a blunt two-word remark for the president. Then he followed up with a demand.
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) pulled no punches Thursday night when talking about Donald Trump’s second-term intimidation tactics.
Trump has been far more effective at cultivating “a climate of fear” since returning to the Oval Office than he ever was in his first term, Schiff said on the (soon-to-be-canceled) “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”
Law firms, universities, judges, immigrants, news organizations and even Republicans in Congress are all in Trump’s crosshairs, said the lawmaker.
Schiff reminded viewers of Trump’s attacks on him. “Ever since I led his first impeachment, he’s threatened me with jail, prosecution, called me a traitor, accused me of treason… blah blah blah,” he said.
Then Schiff turned directly to the camera with a message for the president.
