'Look At His Dumb Face!': Stephen Colbert Trolls Trump Over Truly Awkward Moment
HuffPost
The "Late Show" host mocked the president for a less than graceful image.
“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Monday slammed President Donald Trump for sending the National Guard to Los Angeles to deal with protesters.
“What’s going on in LA reminds us that, as citizens, it is crucial to speak out against Trump’s fascist impulses, his rampant corruption, and his egregious violations of our norms and our laws,” Colbert said, then switched gears: “But sometimes, it’s just as important to say: ‘Haha, old man fall down.’”
Colbert rolled footage of the president stumbling as he walked up the stairs to Air Force One on Sunday.
“Strongman go boom!” Colbert said, then broke out some fascist puns: Benito Whoopsolini, Adolf Tripsler, Joseph Fallin’, and Kim Jong Oops.
“With Trump’s shock troops deployed against our fellow Americans, we can’t focus on trivial things like that,” he said. “But look at his dumb face!”
