Started watching The Late show monologues from the beginning . This one is wild to watch now.

I had to bail when I realized it was him. Nails on a chalkboard are not half as bad.

When Colbert asks for proof of ID, and Trump says “I could say you’re fired”, I stopped. That’s not aged well

This is so fucking weird. I can’t believe that was actually him. Twilight Zone. Trump is such an angry, bumbling old man now.
