'Dear Santa': Stephen Colbert's 'Only' Post-Election Wish Gets Dark In A Hurry
HuffPost
The "Late Show" host looked at some of Trump's picks for his administration.
Stephen Colbert on Thursday had one request for viewers after revealing that President-elect Donald Trump had just nominated “anti-vax nepo-maniac” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to be his secretary of Health and Human Services.
“We should all keep an open mind,” Colbert said. “Because that’s how the worm gets in.”
Kennedy said earlier this year that a parasitic worm had eaten part of his brain.
“So RFK Jr. is now in charge of our health. Exactly what everyone voted for,” Colbert said, then deadpanned: “Surely this will lower the price of eggs.”
Trump’s selection of Kennedy comes one day after he unveiled former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who had been under investigation in a sex trafficking probe involving a 17-year-old girl, as his pick for attorney general.
