'It's True': Stephen Colbert Makes Unexpected Observation In Trump's Iowa Pollster Lawsuit
HuffPost
The "Late Show" host named one forecaster who should "lawyer up" after Trump sued the Des Moines Register and veteran pollster J. Ann Selzer.
Stephen Colbert had two words Wednesday to sum up his reaction to President-elect Donald Trump suing the Des Moines Register and veteran pollster J. Ann Selzer over a pre-election Iowa poll that showed Kamala Harris beating him in the state.
“You won,” said the “Late Show” host of the president-elect.
The president-elect’s lawsuit alleges that the defendants favored the vice president “through use of a leaked and manipulated” poll.
“It’s true, the Des Moines Register leaked its poll where you least expect it — in the Des Moines Register,” Colbert joked.
Trump seeks “accountability for brazen election interference” over the Nov. 2 poll that showed Harris ahead of him by 3 percentage points in the state, according to the legal filing.
