I didn't think I could love Colbert any more than I do, until that last bit at the end. We'll need him and others to keep us sane for the long four years ahead.
After seeing that last bit, I was thinking that if Trump henchwoman Omarosa ever got Colbert in trouble, I would be right there behind him in support. God bless him.
Even more so because many of the Trump sycophants who will get positions in his cabinet are 100% in agreement. They are going to be making plans to hurt people and Trump will just rubber stamp it.
Holy crapola, that video of her was terrifying. That would be a scene I'd expect from a horror or suspense flick, not a political office. I don't think they realize how terrible they sound when they say stuff like that.
Dude it sounded like we were in North Korea. She called him "the most powerful man in the universe" shit. Sounds like we will be living under a dictator
I swear, The Late Show with Colbert, along with the Daily Show, Seth Myers, and Sam Bee are going to be the people that get me through these next 4 years of hell.
Prove a crime, Stona. Prove one fucking crime. Something the FBI and both houses of Congress couldn't do over the course of decades of constant trying.

Where were you when black Americans voted for Obama because he was black. lol. Choosing because of skin pigmentation. Or how about choosing for president because of the type of organs you have inside you.
Nothing at all to do with Obama being inspiring, and having a positive message. All to do with him being black, that's why all presidential nominee's on the democrat side are black. The dems see a black guy, they just have to vote for him... Historically black guys have just crushed it in us elections..they dominate the landscape.. oh yeah..
Yokesplooge "No good reason" You must be a different kind of stupid. She wanted a no fly zone because she doesn't want the Russians to keep bombing civilians that desperately need help and creating a no fly zone would help give the civilians supplies so that they wouldn't be starved like people in the holocaust. Please next time join us on did you even look this up?
It was made illegal specifically in the wake of JFK appointing RFK. "Under 5 U.S.C. § 3110, federal officials are prohibited from appointing their immediate family members to certain governmental positions, including those in the Cabinet. Passed in 1967, this law was a congressional response in delayed dismay about John F. Kennedy's appointment of his brother Robert F. Kennedy to the office of the Attorney General." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinet_of_the_United_States#In_federal_law_and_the_Constitution
Tal Moore That seems more like a vindictive Lyndon Johnson trying to get revenge. RFK was likely to win the nomination and Johnson knew his career as attorney general helped him get there.
Bow down? OMG this country fought the revolutionary war to extricate itself from a monarcy and stood tall claiming that NO one should ever bow down to anyone. Americans don't bow down, particularly to our public servants like the president. We call the president Mister, not lord and king. The very idea of bowing down is unAmerican. Real trouble is coming soon.
IKR? The fact that she said that unironically is absolutely terrifying. Trump is loading his staff with authoritarians. If the Electors follow expectations in December, it'll be the last time they do so because they won't be around in 2020.
Omarosa must suffer from some kind of Stockholm syndrome. This is so sad to watch. There are principles in life that are more important than anything else, yet she's selling her soul to the devil himself just for fame?
RonsaRRR sigh....I'm going to assume you have a very ignorant,old-fashioned lifestyle, I am truly sorry for the people in your life, hopefully if you have children they are being raised in love and not to hate and blame others simply for their appearance.
Solomon paramedic1 The leader of the free world title is stupid. I think it has to do with the cold war. Russia being a dictatorship and US being a democracy. And they decided to call themselves superpowers and the rest of the world was like "Yeah go ahead, as if we care". They really should have. I swear the so called world leaders are messing up big time this time around. Here in Delhi, India we may have broken last 2 decades of pollution records. This is after we added the words Climate Change to the name of the Environment and wildlife ministry. UK brexits and Americans don't get democracy...or logic, or basic decency
Stephen Colbert genuinely hates trump. All these other late night show hosts are being kind after months of talking shit. You all were saying he was paid by Hillary to say all that stuff but she lost and he's still saying it. Trump supporters praise the idea of no political correctness. I don't know what's more un politically correct than this 😂😂😂
Trump supporters hate Colbert because, as he's clearly proven time and time again but especially in the last 60 seconds of this video, he's unafraid and really doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks. And they fucking hate that.
jalyn jones you got it all wrong. What's politically correct about trashing because she lost? I take this as what it is, a late night entertaining show. Clinton's supporters going out to protest on the streets beats whatever funny jokes Colbert could ever trash Trump with. You guys are still too upset to see this is just comedy. You guys prove everyday why Trump won, you can't tell the difference between a show and reality lmfao. Sad.
I got that feeling as well, he didn't think he was going to win, he was hoping to get to troll Hillary and now he is faced with doing the work... He is way in over his head!!
That clip of the woman talking about how they're going to take revenge and subjugate everyone who was critical of drumph looked like something straight out of v for vendetta, but a prequel that shows how the chancellor got into power
Seriously, who talks like that except for movie villains? There was actual mania in her voice. I almost expected her to start twiddling a long mustache while cackling an evil laugh.
You realize this is the prequel to V for Vendetta right? Like, the creators of the movie weren't making shit up about how tyrants come to power. It's predictable and periodic.
understood all those references. i agree. still, stand up for your rights. dont let the orange guy demean your voice. dont let bigots or racist try to steer the government.
I know this is a terrible situation, but the audience chanting Stephen's name and John running down to give him a hug was so cute and powerful and I love this show so much
They are both awesome. Although I think they really should move this segment to him behind a desk. He has a lot of awkward energy, shifting foot to foot, leaning/ standing kinda, hands awkwardly in pockets. We like the guy behind a desk. Don't make him stand to deliver these 15 minute long bits. You can tell he isn't comfortable and it doesn't really add anything to the show to have him standing anyway. I really think that they should change the set to make it feel less like every other late night show out there (Conan, Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, etc). It doesn't add to the show and it detracts from what we like about him. I also don't understand why late night shows all seem to have a band. Why is that? To entertain the audience during commercials? Because we never actually get to hear them play in these youtube bits.
You have to admire Trump for one thing. He thought to himself one day that he could bullshit his way to becoming President, accepted the challenge and then did it.
He didn't do shit, it was all Keku. Only meme magika is to blam3. I always th0ught meme was just a construct. But now, I see. Meme, transcends all. It...merges, takes a new form each time. Meme is us. It is a collection of us, that makes one. Meme is our burning, deep and fiery desire to see the world burn to the ground in chaos unbound!!! Meme magika, through keku's present incarnation that is pepe, Harambe, early 2000's image boards, through the misty waters of the shallow, a creature of pure chaos arose. Mare of Orange. It all ends with this one cry for battle, the MEME WAR HAS JUST BEGUN>>>>> The World Is Chaos' now. Nigh is the time for chaos and disdain.

Nice language, friend. Complaining is an American tradition. Embrace it, and try not to be so self-righteous over your perceived lesser-of-two-evils. I'm really hoping Trump is a great president, even though I feel his past statements tarnish the office. If I can meet you halfway, maybe you can do the same, eh?
One of the brightest most forward thinking minds on the planet. Donald thinks Global warming is a conspiracy and his VP is a creationist. They need DeGrass Tyson so the education system doesnt go to shit.

Joel Jang Ever since comedy was a thing, people used it to criticize and insult political figures. From Aristophanes's "The Clouds" in Ancient Greek to the entire 40 sum odd seasons of Saturday night live. If people weren't allowed to show descent towards someone in power, the person would be infallible. From a less historical stand point, Colbert is a late night comedy show, and not a news outlet. So he's allowed to be bias, and a few insults towards the president won't destroy a country.
I know the feeling, and I'm not even inside the USA. Seeing that yelloworange creepy clown being elected was like having reality degrade into surreality. It simply does not bode well!
wrong. He won't even be privy to the truth about ETs. Let him enjoy his retirement in the white house, the world will keep on ticking around the portrait of DT on his desk.
We in Europe were also in denial, for the past 48 hours. However, after hearing about the government, there are two sentences that overlap the denial: "Oh god, what have you done?!?" and "Oh man....... you're f**ed"
+Konglim Khoo You do know France and Britain have an Nuclear Arsenal, too? Not as big as the US's or Russias, but enough that Russia won't even think of invading western Europe....besides all the other things that make it a stupid idea.
Kill hUnter 96 I think John Oliver actually made a good point about nukes: they really are just useless in the sense that they just fuck everything up, you know? While the threat is still certainly there, it makes the whole situation less terrifying and more... awkward, I suppose. Does that mean there isn't any possibility of Nukes getting used? No, but I think it would fall more on the actual militaries to be the deciding factor on that. If Russia couldn't crack Europe's armies, I don't think they would use nukes since they can afford to just stop the invasion and go somewhere else. Europe, if pushed to the brink, might actually feel the pressure to use them, or they might surrender out of some sense of best interest for the world as opposed to their own. Of course, I'm hardly informed enough on European/ Russian militaries and policies to be making judgement calls on this hypothetical circle jerk, so I guess I'll just shut my fat American mouth and continue with making my grilled cheese at 5 in the morning.
It's been there since Pres. Obama has been in office. He caused controversy for this because that's where Winston Churchill's bust used to be and Obama sent it back to the UK during the first days of office. Caused a lot of headaches and set tone for US-UK relations.
And this is surprising to you? There is not a single thing Trump's done thus far that is not PROFOUNDLY in line with ever single bit of his behavior for the last 40+ years.
@@Fir7shadow She's right. Whether there are aliens or not, he is the most powerful "person" in the universe. Not smart enough to work the levers if power he has been wheeled up to, but he does have access to them.

Don't worry they're all controlled by Jesuits. History lesson: the Knights Templar was the most powerful society that ever existed. It was suppressed by the Catholic Church and Papacy, but survived through others such as the Jesuits, Knights of Christ, Order of Calatrava etc. The Jesuits were then suppressed in the mid to late 1700's. So the Jesuits went underground and form the Order of perfectables then renamed Ordo Illuminati Bavarensis. The Illuminati infiltrated the masonic orders and used it, to overthrow the Catholic and religious monarchs that suppressed them starting with the Kingdom of France, thus the French Revolution
I'm genuinely worried for my favourite late night TV hosts - Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, Sam Bee, Trevor Noah and John Oliver. Trump did say that he plans to change libel laws.
There all liberal lieing scums trying to start a race war/ civil war in are country... idiot. These people need to be held accountable, there's blood on there hands.
@@perrinnorth914 really cute...u do realize that we've had a shitty past 60 to 70 years.. the only great president's were the roosevelts the Republican one and the Democrat one
spoiled maxee That is essentially impossible. That would require the passage of an amendment to overturn the 22nd Amendment, which will never happen. Because a Republican Congress is far from fond about Obama.
An actual possibility? Not any kind of possibility. It is Leftist Authoritarians who typically threaten to use the FCC to control of what people can say in the media under the guise of "fairness." Putting Stephen in jail would be silly. It won't be Trump's job to fire him either. :P
Uh, this just in from Trump's campaign. He has stated repeatedly that he wants to open up the libel laws to make suing people that say "bad things" about him easier. He has repeatedly sued people for defamation. On the other hand there is a First Amendment lawyer (forget his name) who has vowed to offer his services pro bono to whomever is sued by Trump, and then after he made the offer, lawyers across the country added their names. It was originally offered to the women that came forward with their allegations of sexual assault. So at "worst" United States Government v. Stephen Colbert would be a show trial like we've never seen it before.
Believe it or not, there IS a law, put in place by Bush Jr, stating that anyone can be declared an enemy of the USA and held indefinitely without even knowing why, without need for a trial, and ALLOWING TORTURE AND ADMISSION OF EVIDENCE OBTAINED BY TORTURE. If anyone would be petty enough to use this for personal revenge, it's Trump. Granted, it's supposed to be run by a small board which would IDEALLY make it harder to abuse, but we all know Trump would be willing to threaten the board into ruling in his favor since the alternative is sticking THEM in there.
Wait a year or two, Trump won't get along with the republican party, and he'll be impeached for fraud, so the republicans can have Pence be President instead.
Trump is the President-elect and he's still whining like a baby! "Just had a very open and successful presidential election. Now professional protesters, incited by the media, are protesting. Very unfair!" This infant is what you voted in.
That's likely to happen when the candidate who promoted civil unrest and hatred for people who hold opposing viewpoints wins with the least amount of votes. "A man reaps what he sows"
Cpt. Blasian That's what the popular vote is. Actual human beings as opposed to the electoral system with allocates more importance to specific states. Why do you think they only bother to campaign in certain states and not all of them?
@@peretternavn8287 Oof. Saving this to watch again when the current president actually leaves office, whether he is removed by the 25th Amendment, impeached, resigns, or somehow stays in for the next thirteen days (listed in my own order of preference).

I think any comedian would sacrifice all the jokes they could make if they could have the sensible, boring Hilary in office. Politics and jokes aside, I think the love they have for their own country and it's welfare would supersede all that.
I'm not saying Trump and his "cabinet" will kill your children out of spite for speaking ill of him or implying that he's as bad at his job as he is... but having seen this, I cannot with a clean conscience promise they would not.
That was pretty unsettling and it didn't age great considering he had her fired not long after and she went on to do everything in her power to trash his name.
A Colbert classic: Trump asks his new staff, "Make some suggestions on how I can make America great again?", a staff member answers, "Simple, elect someone who knows how?"
xcsheehan Holy crap! your right! lol i forgot the bush era comedy stuff! We even had will ferral do a good by stand up special!!! I hope that alec Baldwin does one on trump!
Trusting in Trump's political skills is like being convinced of climbing up Mount Everest while your only Sherpa is a blind, elderly man on crutches suffering from borderline syndrome.
Eduardo Barbeito: I'm not naive. I didn't vote for Trump. Don't know who you voted for. Wouldn't you agree that Trump, as the next president, already has left so much blood on the carpet before he even got inaugurated? This has never happened before. What can one expect from this man once he's officially in office on January 20th of next year? Nobody really knows! Worldwide! Not even the guys at the pentagon really have a clue - and that means a lot!
Patricia: Well, we have no other choice than giving him a chance. But facts are facts, no matter what. We won't see a different Trump. The man is 70 years old and has always been the bull in the china shop. He's narcisstic, pathologically selfish and first and foremost totally unpolitical and unexperienced! You can't change someone at this age anymore because he's unable to do so, even if he's willing to. He possibly will be a little quieter, a little more presidential compared to his embarrassingly lowbrow campaign, but that's it. This will be the most unsuccessful and most miserable presidency in a very long time!
Eduardo Barbeito The Congress. Congress. Ahahhaha. that Congress that approves almost anything related to war and stymie things like a sex trafficking bill to help victims? Yeah no I wouldn't hold my breath
Does....does the Trump campaign not understand why the term "checks and balances" mean in the government? Because, the President actually has a limit to the power he's granted.
woofwolf435 Less than 60 GOP votes in the Senate, so there will be filibusters. Plus the SCOTUS will have the same liberal-to-conservative ratio as under Obama. Not to mention the fact that Trump wants to spend like crazy, while the conservatives in Congress don't.
No....he knows nothing. He doesn't research or read up on anything as he gets all his info from the Internet ! He has to be introduced to the ABC's of how things work in the white house first...probably with some coloring book or a book with tons or pictures and extra large text...maybe a pop up book !...LOL
not if he picks his judges and people who make the decisions with him. its alot easier then oh and if the repulicans had all the power... oh wait thats all true
Trump supporters get so angry at Stephen's reaction to the election. Maybe because the best entertainers they have on their side are scott baio and pepe the frog?
As a non-american citizen who has been following this election for 8-9 months, I urge everyone to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. America is not a country where one deranged man can just 'take control'. You have a lot of power over your government unlike many other countries in the world. Don't give up. Ever. Because the moment you give up is the moment you become the country and the nation you hate and fear. Acknowledge the power you have and know that you don't have anything in your path as long as you are organized and one voice. I'm a Turkish citizen, and most of the people here gave up, including me because we literally don't have any power anymore. Abuse your system like they did. You lost because you are acting the way they wanted you to act. You lost because you decided to be ignorant about the big picture and focus on small, unimportant details. He is going to be your president for the next 4 years, you may not be able to change that. But you can change and affect every single decision that he and his administration make. Learn what you are. Understand what you are. Before it's too late for every single one of us. In the world. We all depend on you. Do not let us down. Please.
While it is true, he currently has enough people in his corner to actually "take control"... Congress and Senate is republican majority and so far nobody named in his cabinet is a democrat, but all republican stalwarts, he is even giving (hope it's all a lie) Steve Bannon a media chief of staff position. Thankfully it will only be for 2 years and then we can return some sort of actual balance when we elect new congress and senate
StyleM49 well yes about the 'taking control' part was a more general thing rather than the technicality of it. Your political culture has evolved over the years to not give a man like this the chance actually exercise that sort of control even if he controls every branch of government. If I know correctly, the state governments and legislatures can be a force to some extent against the congress and the senate in certain situations. Nevertheless, you actually have a chance that's what i'm trying to say
You dont understand, the left - the democrats wasn't just defeated by Trump its was UTTERLY DESTROYED they have NO institutional control over the government. they didnt just lose the presidency the lost the senate and the house. They are mocking the administration that will take COMPLETE CONTROL of the west over the next 4 years. California is a DESERT and its only economic benefit is the MEDIA which as im sure you noticed is COMPLETELY out of touch with reality. Again they are mocking the administration that will take over, and the trump administration has every right to be hostile. You all had better get your shit together. Because if im in Australia and im this disgusted with their conduct, IMAGINE HOW THE TRUMP VOTERS FEEL. If you look at the electoral map ITS PRETTY FUCKING RED. We are looking at the first shots of a new civil war.
Don't test Jan's memory, wouldn't want to hurt her. Sure as shit, none of the republicans in my family are capable of remembering the fact that they have been calling Obama a "Kenyan Muslim" for the past 8 years straight...
Hey Jan, remember when the Republican Congress promised that they would obstruct everything Obama tried to do? So don't throw a hissy fit, we learned butthurt from Republicans.
between Bernie and Hillary, you choose her. between Hillary and Trump, you choose him. now i understand the reason why john oliver did a segment on "Opioid abuse"
Ever since Trump's video on that bus with Bush became public the networks have become lax about bleeping 'pussy', even in other cases where it refers directly to genitals.
That was basically Colbert saying: "Alright, if this is the new normal in political discourse... if this is the sort of language our elected officials and supposed role models are going to use, I'm not going to shy away from it. But unlike some who use those words cheaply, unimaginatively, and without context (e.g. calling Hillary a cunt), I'm actually going to use it with power, potency, and in the right context."
In this context, "pussy" doesn't mean genitals. It actually does come from a word used for "cat" in the 1700s, which then started being used to use affectionately towards women. It wasn't until the 19th century when it started to become derogatory in the context it's been used now.
I haven't slept in 3 days, and I randomly burst into tears. Today is my birthday, and it's the worst birthday I have every had. I don't want to celebrate...what is there to celebrate? I'm trying to be positive, I'm trying to be hopeful but it's just so hard :(
david7fx I'm not upset by the media, I'm upset by what people are doing in Trump's name. So much racism and hate in the past two days, not by Trump but by his supporters. I know they are not all racist, I know they are not all bad people. I just wish more of them would stand up against it. Trump supporters should be setting a good example. Donald Trump himself should be condemning this behavior. I'd have more respect for him if he did.

Me tooo!!! I love Colbert, thank hod for him as well as Seth Meyers, he can be pretty dam hilarious too. UA-cam "C-SPAN: Seth Meyers remarks at the 2011 White House Correspondence' Dinner" Its so funny and see TRUMP GET ROASTED as well and is pissed about it I love it!!
Adding more ammo to the gun, this was the episode when the "Stephen, Stephen...' chants originally started. During when Stephen Colbert was just getting started & well before The Late Show (Cobert Report Days), I actually didn't think he was awesome because at the time, I wasn't interested. 2 weeks before the 2016 election started, I started to watch him & man I missed out & now 7 years later, when he imitated Trump's that just made Stephen Cobert ratings go off the charts. I loved this & I should have watched the Cobert Report. Even I now have a new quote for all triggered feminazis & Trumpublicunts. "Something a pussy would say".😅😅😅
I didn't think I could love Colbert any more than I do, until that last bit at the end. We'll need him and others to keep us sane for the long four years ahead.
David Pierdomenico Yeah, I hope he makes more inspiring shows.. well, I mean before Omarosa hauls him off to a concentration camp.

David Pierdomenico make America hate again!
We were doomed for four years regardless. Let's hope things wont be as bleak as either forecasted term was projected.
That revenge speech, was one of the most alarming things I've heard in my entire adult life.
Even more so because many of the Trump sycophants who will get positions in his cabinet are 100% in agreement. They are going to be making plans to hurt people and Trump will just rubber stamp it.

Oh my god, we're so fucked. This guy is gonna get baited right into a war in no time at all.
Compared to hillary who wanted a war with russia and syria with that no-fly zone for no good reason at all? we're good.
hey, about war? use your brain, thanks.
Yokesplooge "No good reason" You must be a different kind of stupid. She wanted a no fly zone because she doesn't want the Russians to keep bombing civilians that desperately need help and creating a no fly zone would help give the civilians supplies so that they wouldn't be starved like people in the holocaust. Please next time join us on did you even look this up?
News flash - USA is alredy into war on the Middle East. Since 2001 and 2003. And Obama don't resolve this problem. He make it worse.
You mean someone wants war with Us and Russia? Good fucking luck

It's illegal for a president to appoint a family member to a cabinet position...for now.
Tal Moore That isn't true in the slightest. JFK made Bobby Kennedy the attorney general.
It was made illegal specifically in the wake of JFK appointing RFK.
"Under 5 U.S.C. § 3110, federal officials are prohibited from appointing their immediate family members to certain governmental positions, including those in the Cabinet. Passed in 1967, this law was a congressional response in delayed dismay about John F. Kennedy's appointment of his brother Robert F. Kennedy to the office of the Attorney General." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinet_of_the_United_States#In_federal_law_and_the_Constitution
Tal Moore That seems more like a vindictive Lyndon Johnson trying to get revenge. RFK was likely to win the nomination and Johnson knew his career as attorney general helped him get there.
Possibly, but that means my original post was, in fact, correct.
Tal Moore It also means that it's a piece of legislation with very little constitutional reasoning that could be repealed.
I think this may be the best monologue Stephen has delivered since he started at the Late Show. This was 15 minutes of perfection.

She thinks this is a reality show!! wow, I am out of words.
Bow down? OMG this country fought the revolutionary war to extricate itself from a monarcy and stood tall claiming that NO one should ever bow down to anyone. Americans don't bow down, particularly to our public servants like the president. We call the president Mister, not lord and king. The very idea of bowing down is unAmerican. Real trouble is coming soon.
Someone's gotta bow to cheeto Benito or else he'll cry about how persecuted he is.
Kidding.
He'll do that regardless.
Well said.
If they really try something THAT stupid, they will only be bowing down to the barrel of a gun.
Taylan Ertan lolol
RhondaH bow down to trump!you piece of shit libtard
I can't believe that Omarosa interview is real. Good lord...
IKR? The fact that she said that unironically is absolutely terrifying. Trump is loading his staff with authoritarians. If the Electors follow expectations in December, it'll be the last time they do so because they won't be around in 2020.
She's incredibly attractive though, so 50/50? :p
Me too! I thought it was absolutely horrifying, just like something from a dystopia movie.
Omarosa must suffer from some kind of Stockholm syndrome. This is so sad to watch. There are principles in life that are more important than anything else, yet she's selling her soul to the devil himself just for fame?
must be thinking she's in north korea!

I had barely heard of her, and never seen her speak. That clip was insane.
HailG3 I know right I thought it was a joke it took me a few minutes to realize she was serious

Did she say "detractors", " bow down" and "universe" with a straight face?? Wow!
Yep, infuckingcredible
Yeah, what the fuck was that?
Solomon paramedic1 The leader of the free world title is stupid. I think it has to do with the cold war. Russia being a dictatorship and US being a democracy. And they decided to call themselves superpowers and the rest of the world was like "Yeah go ahead, as if we care". They really should have.
I swear the so called world leaders are messing up big time this time around.

He deserves to be the president more than trump
Notsuchabadguy You keep thinking that. It's better for you weenies to think of the rest of us as uneducated. Enjoy the next four years....buddy.
Stephen Colbert genuinely hates trump. All these other late night show hosts are being kind after months of talking shit. You all were saying he was paid by Hillary to say all that stuff but she lost and he's still saying it. Trump supporters praise the idea of no political correctness. I don't know what's more un politically correct than this 😂😂😂
Trump supporters hate Colbert because, as he's clearly proven time and time again but especially in the last 60 seconds of this video, he's unafraid and really doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks. And they fucking hate that.
Well, considering the like to dislike ratio it seems they actually do appreciate that or they simply don't care about Colbert.
Wow, you've made a great point there bro. Stupid people simply accused him pf being paid by Hillary.
jalyn jones you got it all wrong. What's politically correct about trashing because she lost? I take this as what it is, a late night entertaining show. Clinton's supporters going out to protest on the streets beats whatever funny jokes Colbert could ever trash Trump with. You guys are still too upset to see this is just comedy. You guys prove everyday why Trump won, you can't tell the difference between a show and reality lmfao.
Sad.
So, did he genuinely think Hillary Clinton was a better candidate than Bernie Sanders?
Trump looks terrified. I think he thought it was a joke that's now turned into reality.
I got that feeling as well, he didn't think he was going to win, he was hoping to get to troll Hillary and now he is faced with doing the work... He is way in over his head!!
Delilah Weeks dude will most likely get shot
Yeah, right? He looked like "Shit! Why did nobody tell me being the president means work?"
And that's funny and frightening at the same time!
The adage "careful what you wish for, you just might get it" comes to mind. I think Trump is starting to figure out what it means to be president.
That clip of the woman talking about how they're going to take revenge and subjugate everyone who was critical of drumph looked like something straight out of v for vendetta, but a prequel that shows how the chancellor got into power
Seriously, who talks like that except for movie villains? There was actual mania in her voice. I almost expected her to start twiddling a long mustache while cackling an evil laugh.
Yeah, that was seriously chilling.
You realize this is the prequel to V for Vendetta right? Like, the creators of the movie weren't making shit up about how tyrants come to power. It's predictable and periodic.
understood all those references. i agree. still, stand up for your rights. dont let the orange guy demean your voice. dont let bigots or racist try to steer the government.
If this is V For Vendetta, let's hope Colbert doesn't meet the same fate as their comedic late night talk show host character.
I know this is a terrible situation, but the audience chanting Stephen's name and John running down to give him a hug was so cute and powerful and I love this show so much
Flynnie Junior it made my day :')
That last bit was the best.
They are both awesome. Although I think they really should move this segment to him behind a desk. He has a lot of awkward energy, shifting foot to foot, leaning/ standing kinda, hands awkwardly in pockets. We like the guy behind a desk. Don't make him stand to deliver these 15 minute long bits. You can tell he isn't comfortable and it doesn't really add anything to the show to have him standing anyway.
I really think that they should change the set to make it feel less like every other late night show out there (Conan, Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, etc). It doesn't add to the show and it detracts from what we like about him. I also don't understand why late night shows all seem to have a band. Why is that? To entertain the audience during commercials? Because we never actually get to hear them play in these youtube bits.
Agreed, Was about to say after rewatching years later, but that moment from Jon was perfect. Cannot love more.
this monologue gave me .............................................Renewed confidence
You have to admire Trump for one thing. He thought to himself one day that he could bullshit his way to becoming President, accepted the challenge and then did it.
avarmauk it's such a funny thought. But our president he is so the next 4 years we will endure
He didn't do shit, it was all Keku. Only meme magika is to blam3. I always th0ught meme was just a construct. But now, I see. Meme, transcends all. It...merges, takes a new form each time. Meme is us. It is a collection of us, that makes one. Meme is our burning, deep and fiery desire to see the world burn to the ground in chaos unbound!!! Meme magika, through keku's present incarnation that is pepe, Harambe, early 2000's image boards, through the misty waters of the shallow, a creature of pure chaos arose. Mare of Orange. It all ends with this one cry for battle, the MEME WAR HAS JUST BEGUN>>>>> The World Is Chaos' now. Nigh is the time for chaos and disdain.

Well Stephen, look at it this way ... you will have plenty of material for the next four dark years.
Joel Jang Ever since comedy was a thing, people used it to criticize and insult political figures. From Aristophanes's "The Clouds" in Ancient Greek to the entire 40 sum odd seasons of Saturday night live. If people weren't allowed to show descent towards someone in power, the person would be infallible.
From a less historical stand point, Colbert is a late night comedy show, and not a news outlet. So he's allowed to be bias, and a few insults towards the president won't destroy a country.
Joel Jang Yeah, because the conservative pigs never talked trash about Obama.
'not my president eh?' ........ so when does he actually get sworn in to power then?
Jonathan Hodgson I edited. But to answer your question, I believe it's January 8th or sometime in early January. Just shoot me.

+Konglim Khoo You do know France and Britain have an Nuclear Arsenal, too? Not as big as the US's or Russias, but enough that Russia won't even think of invading western Europe....besides all the other things that make it a stupid idea.
Kill hUnter 96 I think John Oliver actually made a good point about nukes: they really are just useless in the sense that they just fuck everything up, you know? While the threat is still certainly there, it makes the whole situation less terrifying and more... awkward, I suppose. Does that mean there isn't any possibility of Nukes getting used? No, but I think it would fall more on the actual militaries to be the deciding factor on that. If Russia couldn't crack Europe's armies, I don't think they would use nukes since they can afford to just stop the invasion and go somewhere else. Europe, if pushed to the brink, might actually feel the pressure to use them, or they might surrender out of some sense of best interest for the world as opposed to their own.
Of course, I'm hardly informed enough on European/ Russian militaries and policies to be making judgement calls on this hypothetical circle jerk, so I guess I'll just shut my fat American mouth and continue with making my grilled cheese at 5 in the morning.

Don't worry they're all controlled by Jesuits. History lesson: the Knights Templar was the most powerful society that ever existed. It was suppressed by the Catholic Church and Papacy, but survived through others such as the Jesuits, Knights of Christ, Order of Calatrava etc. The Jesuits were then suppressed in the mid to late 1700's. So the Jesuits went underground and form the Order of perfectables then renamed Ordo Illuminati Bavarensis. The Illuminati infiltrated the masonic orders and used it, to overthrow the Catholic and religious monarchs that suppressed them starting with the Kingdom of France, thus the French Revolution

Ahhhh.... Remember way back when, when everyone thought "Seriously, how bad could he be?"
Silver lining: Next 4 years of late night will be amazing...unless Trump decides to put Stephen in jail, which is an actual possibility.
An actual possibility? Not any kind of possibility. It is Leftist Authoritarians who typically threaten to use the FCC to control of what people can say in the media under the guise of "fairness." Putting Stephen in jail would be silly. It won't be Trump's job to fire him either. :P
Uh, this just in from Trump's campaign. He has stated repeatedly that he wants to open up the libel laws to make suing people that say "bad things" about him easier. He has repeatedly sued people for defamation.
On the other hand there is a First Amendment lawyer (forget his name) who has vowed to offer his services pro bono to whomever is sued by Trump, and then after he made the offer, lawyers across the country added their names. It was originally offered to the women that came forward with their allegations of sexual assault. So at "worst" United States Government v. Stephen Colbert would be a show trial like we've never seen it before.
"This will not be great for us! Do you know who writes my jokes? Spoiler alert, it's Jews and they're terrified"
--Sam Bee
Um. Trump sued Bill Maher for saying his father was an orangutan. He openly admits to wanting to expand libel laws.
Believe it or not, there IS a law, put in place by Bush Jr, stating that anyone can be declared an enemy of the USA and held indefinitely without even knowing why, without need for a trial, and ALLOWING TORTURE AND ADMISSION OF EVIDENCE OBTAINED BY TORTURE. If anyone would be petty enough to use this for personal revenge, it's Trump. Granted, it's supposed to be run by a small board which would IDEALLY make it harder to abuse, but we all know Trump would be willing to threaten the board into ruling in his favor since the alternative is sticking THEM in there.

Well, that backfired for Omarosa.
So for the next four years Steven is going to do this?
osamaFXX he is a looser who wanted hillary don't watch his show it's going to fail
osamaFXX God I hope so
I hope he does. To keep people informed about who Trump really is before the media whitewashes everything he has said he wants to do.
Ryan Johnson, all I can say to that is pfffffffffffft.
xcsheehan Holy crap! your right! lol i forgot the bush era comedy stuff! We even had will ferral do a good by stand up special!!! I hope that alec Baldwin does one on trump!
I'm willing to bet that Omarossa was the ONLY woman Trump didn't try to grab.
why's that, she's pretty hot even if she seems a nasty b''tch
I wouldn't be so sure. Sexual assault is more about power than attraction.
kada0601 Because ..shes... black and he's a racist shit.That's why.
that's the problem, she's so twisted she might actually like it....too much?
Your caps are on. You brain is off. Please switch the wires. Thaanx.
I’m just seeing this for the first time and Stephen is the “MAN”!!! The ending is epic!! 🤣🤣
Isn't he tho?! I LOVE THIS GUY
Wow, this is the best thing I've seen since Trump won. Thank you thank you and thank you again Mr Colbert.
Trusting in Trump's political skills is like being convinced of climbing up Mount Everest while your only Sherpa is a blind, elderly man on crutches suffering from borderline syndrome.
Do you guys know what the Congress is? Do you think everything Trump is saying will be easily approved? Don't be so naive
Eduardo Barbeito: I'm not naive. I didn't vote for Trump. Don't know who you voted for. Wouldn't you agree that Trump, as the next president, already has left so much blood on the carpet before he even got inaugurated? This has never happened before. What can one expect from this man once he's officially in office on January 20th of next year? Nobody really knows! Worldwide! Not even the guys at the pentagon really have a clue - and that means a lot!
Patricia: Well, we have no other choice than giving him a chance. But
facts are facts, no matter what. We won't see a different Trump. The man
is 70 years old and has always been the bull in the china shop. He's
narcisstic, pathologically selfish and first and foremost totally unpolitical and
unexperienced! You can't change someone at this age anymore because he's unable
to do so, even if he's willing to. He possibly will be a little
quieter, a little more presidential compared to his embarrassingly lowbrow campaign, but that's
it. This will be the most unsuccessful and most miserable presidency in a very long time!
Eduardo Barbeito The Congress. Congress. Ahahhaha. that Congress that approves almost anything related to war and stymie things like a sex trafficking bill to help victims? Yeah no I wouldn't hold my breath
Patricia L You missed key words. like bigly
I would say that Omarosa is like Harley Quinn and Trump is like the Joker, but... that would be insulting to both Harley and Mr. J.
Dumb ass bitch ever
Puddin'!
Wait, who in this scenario is Batman?
LilPinkFuzzyMonster There is no Batman in this scenario! Hahaha!
Oh. I made myself sad.
You mean Barrak O'Batman?
holy shit. i half expected omorosa to pull out a red lightsaber
what the _fuck?_
Does....does the Trump campaign not understand why the term "checks and balances" mean in the government? Because, the President actually has a limit to the power he's granted.
In this case? No, no he doesn't. The Senate, _and_ congress are majority republican, and they're going to roll right over for whatever he wants.
woofwolf435 Less than 60 GOP votes in the Senate, so there will be filibusters. Plus the SCOTUS will have the same liberal-to-conservative ratio as under Obama. Not to mention the fact that Trump wants to spend like crazy, while the conservatives in Congress don't.
No....he knows nothing. He doesn't research or read up on anything as he gets all his info from the Internet ! He has to be introduced to the ABC's of how things work in the white house first...probably with some coloring book or a book with tons or pictures and extra large text...maybe a pop up book !...LOL
not if he picks his judges and people who make the decisions with him. its alot easier then oh and if the repulicans had all the power... oh wait thats all true
Taylor Sampson thats why he's hiring every fucktard there is to help him win monopoly its all a business plan
Trump is going to give a cabinet position to Palin?! Is he crazy?!!!!
Is that even a question at this point? That ship sailed and sunk long ago. XD
De Libertatem Uh......, yeah!
I like how you ended that metaphor.
Is that a real question? Of course he's crazy
Things can only get better after they hit the bottom. So maybe that's what Trump is going for...
Trump supporters get so angry at Stephen's reaction to the election. Maybe because the best entertainers they have on their side are scott baio and pepe the frog?
Don;t even mention pepe you white nationalist symbol.
Havel the Rock ...what?
Ben shapiro and steven crowder look them up
john dillenger Yeah cause ben shapiro totally is pro trump xd
You have entertainers, we have the presidency
Boy o boy...5 years later. That renewed confidence line really hits.
thank you stephen colbert for keeping me sane through all of this crazy mess
As a non-american citizen who has been following this election for 8-9 months, I urge everyone to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. America is not a country where one deranged man can just 'take control'. You have a lot of power over your government unlike many other countries in the world. Don't give up. Ever. Because the moment you give up is the moment you become the country and the nation you hate and fear. Acknowledge the power you have and know that you don't have anything in your path as long as you are organized and one voice. I'm a Turkish citizen, and most of the people here gave up, including me because we literally don't have any power anymore. Abuse your system like they did. You lost because you are acting the way they wanted you to act. You lost because you decided to be ignorant about the big picture and focus on small, unimportant details. He is going to be your president for the next 4 years, you may not be able to change that. But you can change and affect every single decision that he and his administration make.
Learn what you are. Understand what you are.
Before it's too late for every single one of us. In the world. We all depend on you. Do not let us down.
Please.
While it is true, he currently has enough people in his corner to actually "take control"... Congress and Senate is republican majority and so far nobody named in his cabinet is a democrat, but all republican stalwarts, he is even giving (hope it's all a lie) Steve Bannon a media chief of staff position. Thankfully it will only be for 2 years and then we can return some sort of actual balance when we elect new congress and senate
StyleM49 well yes about the 'taking control' part was a more general thing rather than the technicality of it. Your political culture has evolved over the years to not give a man like this the chance actually exercise that sort of control even if he controls every branch of government. If I know correctly, the state governments and legislatures can be a force to some extent against the congress and the senate in certain situations. Nevertheless, you actually have a chance that's what i'm trying to say
Yiğit Soner you underestimate how stupid America is.
foraminutethere23 I don't want to accept that the "great power" that nearly every country in the world depends on is actually this stupid
You dont understand, the left - the democrats wasn't just defeated by Trump its was UTTERLY DESTROYED they have NO institutional control over the government. they didnt just lose the presidency the lost the senate and the house. They are mocking the administration that will take COMPLETE CONTROL of the west over the next 4 years. California is a DESERT and its only economic benefit is the MEDIA which as im sure you noticed is COMPLETELY out of touch with reality. Again they are mocking the administration that will take over, and the trump administration has every right to be hostile. You all had better get your shit together. Because if im in Australia and im this disgusted with their conduct, IMAGINE HOW THE TRUMP VOTERS FEEL. If you look at the electoral map ITS PRETTY FUCKING RED. We are looking at the first shots of a new civil war.
I'm surprised I'm saying this now but, Trump, what the fuck are you doing?
+Jan Brady Don't republicans only have a problem when things aren't ping your way...?
Don't test Jan's memory, wouldn't want to hurt her. Sure as shit, none of the republicans in my family are capable of remembering the fact that they have been calling Obama a "Kenyan Muslim" for the past 8 years straight...
Hey Jan, remember when the Republican Congress promised that they would obstruct everything Obama tried to do? So don't throw a hissy fit, we learned butthurt from Republicans.
TheTorridestCheese draining the swamp my friend.
Ultraspontane, still calling people CTR even after she lost? SAD!
Wow, that last comment. Epic. Colbert 2020!
Trump 2020! Best president ever
tacobolle pizzabolle you must be on drugs
@@thereisalwaysarainbowafter1364 why
I look forward to the next 4 years of you keeping it real. thank you sir.
lol
between Bernie and Hillary, you choose her.
between Hillary and Trump, you choose him.
now i understand the reason why john oliver did a segment on "Opioid abuse"
They didn't bleep the 'pussy' at the end. Nice.
CBS could have and probably should have, it's nice to know that they support what Colbert stands for.
Ever since Trump's video on that bus with Bush became public the networks have become lax about bleeping 'pussy', even in other cases where it refers directly to genitals.
That was basically Colbert saying: "Alright, if this is the new normal in political discourse... if this is the sort of language our elected officials and supposed role models are going to use, I'm not going to shy away from it. But unlike some who use those words cheaply, unimaginatively, and without context (e.g. calling Hillary a cunt), I'm actually going to use it with power, potency, and in the right context."
In this context, "pussy" doesn't mean genitals. It actually does come from a word used for "cat" in the 1700s, which then started being used to use affectionately towards women. It wasn't until the 19th century when it started to become derogatory in the context it's been used now.
there's no need to any more . trump ma it ok!
I love this man
I haven't slept in 3 days, and I randomly burst into tears. Today is my birthday, and it's the worst birthday I have every had. I don't want to celebrate...what is there to celebrate? I'm trying to be positive, I'm trying to be hopeful but it's just so hard :(
dont let fool by the media.. trump is going to be a great president.
david7fx I'm not upset by the media, I'm upset by what people are doing in Trump's name. So much racism and hate in the past two days, not by Trump but by his supporters. I know they are not all racist, I know they are not all bad people. I just wish more of them would stand up against it. Trump supporters should be setting a good example. Donald Trump himself should be condemning this behavior. I'd have more respect for him if he did.
Beth G. Coming from a muslim.......NOTHING is gonna changeeeeeeeee
Beth G. .....Pray....
Beth G. happy birthday!!!! I know it's hard...it's hard for the majority of us. just woo-sah, have a drink, turn on your favorite song, close your eyes and sing...it's hard, but you'll be ok. we will be ok.
*thank you* Stephen (and everyone else at LTS) for keeping us all sane - if I don't laugh, I just cry... (mostly both)
Stephen Colbert is what you call a LEGEND!
Wow! My son just sent me this video...4 long-ass years later. You called it! Loved that ending. lol
Stephen and his writers are brilliant!!!
14:27-14:55 I lost it at this part! It's not enough the audience applauds and chants his name, but Jon Batiste has to run onstage and give him a big bear hug!
Stephen. Respect, from the UK, my friend. Keep at it.
I'd never be able to survive this administration without Colbert!!
Me tooo!!!
I love Colbert, thank hod for him as well as Seth Meyers, he can be pretty dam hilarious too.
UA-cam "C-SPAN: Seth Meyers remarks at the 2011 White House Correspondence' Dinner"
Its so funny and see TRUMP GET ROASTED as well and is pissed about it I love it!!
Trevor Noah too...
Stephen is a straight up savage lol
Stephen and Seth are both amazing!!
They're the ultimate kings of late night 👑👑
"Is what a pussy would say" might be my new favorite Stephen line.
Even though I read this comment before he said it, I still had NO IDEA when it was coming. 10 out of 10 delivery ✨
Adding more ammo to the gun, this was the episode when the "Stephen, Stephen...' chants originally started.
During when Stephen Colbert was just getting started & well before The Late Show (Cobert Report Days), I actually didn't think he was awesome because at the time, I wasn't interested. 2 weeks before the 2016 election started, I started to watch him & man I missed out & now 7 years later, when he imitated Trump's that just made Stephen Cobert ratings go off the charts. I loved this & I should have watched the Cobert Report.
Even I now have a new quote for all triggered feminazis & Trumpublicunts.
"Something a pussy would say".😅😅😅
It's 2019. I miss you Obama. It's been horrible. 😭
It's 2020 we're really starting to miss Obama, George, Clinton, Carter.... Need I go on
Yeah! Come back Obama all is forgiven!
Wait until you see 2020
