'You Schmuck!': Stephen Colbert Lashes Out At Unexpected New Target Over Trump
HuffPost
The "Late Show" host turned his ire toward a key member of the current administration.
“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Wednesday said in just eight days since the election Donald Trump has already managed to be “way worse” than he expected.
Colbert pointed out that Trump earlier in the day nominated Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) to be his attorney general.
“During the campaign, I thought if Trump won, he would do the worst things I could imagine,” Colbert said. “Turns out, I don’t have much of an imagination.”
Trump also nominated former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard as his pick for director of national intelligence.
Colbert then turned his ire to an unexpected figure: Not Trump or his allies, but Attorney General Merrick Garland, for failing to prosecute Trump sooner.
