+Özgür Akpınar Uh... isn't UA-cam the best place to watch UA-cam videos? Just sayin'. I mean I know this is some kind of spam or trick to get people to click on something horrible or virus-y, but still.

JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: Jim, it says here you dropped out of the presidential race. JIM GILMORE: Yup. JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: When, uh... when did you *_enter_* the presidential race? JIM GILMORE: I dunno. I just had some free time one day and filled out some forms. JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: Okay. Hey, could you maybe let me know the next time you run for president? JIM GILMORE: Will do. JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: Are TV dinners okay again tonight? JIM GILMORE: Absolutely. JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: (walking away) 12 votes in Iowa. Jesus. JIM GILMORE: What's that? JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: Nothing, hunny. Very, very close to nothing.
Can a good Catholic even say the word "Santorum?" I guess Christie's presidential run went a bridge too far. He just couldn't bridge the gap between the different factions in his party. And he burned too many bridges in his run. Fiorina had to Hewlett Packard it up.
+KingOfMadCows Trivia: Did you know that Santorum was the only candidate to announce his plans for running in 2016 on Colbert's old show, in a 2013 Christmas-themed episode.
I don't think people get the district paper jam either 😂, as far as the bridge is concerned I believe he closed some for political reasons and people lost their shit.
The next time when Stephen looks toward the ceiling, then JLaw looks to the ceiling, then Caligula looks toward the ceiling, maybe they should add the band looking up also for "the fallen". I love this bit so much!! Love how he puts the eyebrows above his real eyebrows. I actually just saw the Hunger Games for the first time, just because of watching this.
Colbert is by far the best host of any comedy show on now. For those of you who didn't know what naming a ferret "Caligula" implies... do a search on that name. One word of warning: The movie Caligula has a lot of kinky stuff in it, but in the end it's kind of a "meh" by today's standards.
+fr3@kb!+¢h Because rumor has it, if you say Chris Christie 3 times online he jumps out of your computer screen and force feeds you krispy kreme donuts until you vote for him or die of a clogged artery.
It's great to hear Stephen talking about his home state of South Carolina. (Despite living up north and being a Democrat, deep down he still misses his hometown of Charleston.) Was anyone waiting for some barbecue jokes, or a "I do declare" impression for Lindsey Graham?
I love this and hope he keeps doing this segment! Does anyone know if there's a schedule for when he does these skits? I wanna go to a taping when he does one! Also, he looked a lot like Stanley Tucci in this one! He really got his mannerisms down perfectly now!
He is absolutely vicious in every single one of these segments and it's entertaining beyond limits. I guess other people's misfortune does taste like honey especially if it's served by Stephen.
I know what this video was about, every time he says "Its like the Hunger games... No, its more than that... Its... The Hungry for Power Games!" I crack up every time.
FINALLY....THE HUNGRY FOR POWER GAMES ARE BACK!
It never went anywhere
+Alex M here to stay...Eyeopener
+Özgür Akpınar Uh... isn't UA-cam the best place to watch UA-cam videos? Just sayin'. I mean I know this is some kind of spam or trick to get people to click on something horrible or virus-y, but still.
I look forward to candidates dropping out of the presidential race primarily for these videos.
Same lol
me 3
Me too!!!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
me too!!! hahahah

This has got to be one of the best skits I have ever seen Colbert perform.
"one for every pig that would've flown over your inauguration " bahahaha i died
+Kelvin F R.I.P.
JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: Jim, it says here you dropped out of the presidential race.
JIM GILMORE: Yup.

JIM GILMORE: What's that?
JIM GILMORE'S WIFE: Nothing, hunny. Very, very close to nothing.
+fidorover This is hilarious!
+fidorover: genius. 😂
would be a great political comic!
+fidorover I honestly wonder who those 12 people were.....
+SkyrimEs5 Apparently there are more people living in the state of Iowa named Jim Gilmore than people who voted for Jim Gilmore.
"District 12----votes"
Also: "Quasimodo 's handsome brother "- hey, he said he was handsome.
+Jensen Bell The worst part of Jim Gilmore dropping out is there won't be any more jokes about him. (Colbert mentioned him quite a few times.)
+Tyler Lewis This video has 1000x as many views as Gilmore got votes :D
+Jensen Bell That would've been funnier if he didn't say put votes in but just implied it.
+Erik Le Blanc It's in the background when they were showing the tribute deaths. Christie was District Bridge, haha
4:08 Not a *single* clap for Carly Fiorina LOL
+stompindez There were some "aw"s, though. :P
Ok, come November, Colbert needs to get Stanley Tucci for the final segment of this.
he already participated in one
+victor martone I know, but Stanley needs to be in full attire and do like a 10 minute finale in November.. It will be perfect!
Stanley Tucci already has crashed the segment.
Oh my god, when he tilted the stuffed ferret up I lost it.
The Fiorina cut was also hilarious.
"A lot of Gilmore voters here evidently" judging by the audience reaction, that should be about all of them.
Seriously, I live for this bit. Thank you!
I LOVE THE HUNGRY FOR POWER GAMES I LOOK FORWARD TO WATCHING THE FALLEN
haha District 12 Votes, that was savage.
Districts Bridge and Paper Jam were also hilarious
I will never get tired of this series.
Can a good Catholic even say the word "Santorum?"
I guess Christie's presidential run went a bridge too far. He just couldn't bridge the gap between the different factions in his party. And he burned too many bridges in his run.
Fiorina had to Hewlett Packard it up.
+KingOfMadCows Trivia: Did you know that Santorum was the only candidate to announce his plans for running in 2016 on Colbert's old show, in a 2013 Christmas-themed episode.
These get weirder every time.
+Robert1811 So do the debates :D
+ParanoidCritter
Well the debates started as weird so I shudder to think how they can get wierder...
+Robert1811 You mean better!!! :D
+the nowhere girl If this was a SNL skit then maybe but when you think that one of these people can be president it gets scary
+ParanoidCritter You misunderstood, the nowhere girl was responding to the original comment.
"Chris Christie. Distric Bridge"
Oh. My. God. XD
I love Colbert hahaha
"Quasimodo's handsome brother" One of best jokes written for this show.
This is one of the funniest skits he's done on The Late Show. He is rocking this gig and I am glad he took it.
He is back to his best!!!
The best thing to ever happen to late night.
The Hungry for power games.
Stephens desk.
And Stephen Colbert.
Chris Christie was part of "District Bridge". Only a few will understand that one Steph.
Can you explain?
I don't get it.
I don't think people get the district paper jam either 😂, as far as the bridge is concerned I believe he closed some for political reasons and people lost their shit.
+Beat He closed a bridge in peak hour for political reasons and an old lady died whilst stuck on the bridge.
+XoneXofXaXkind district paper jam made me cry laughing 😂😂😂
+stompindez She didn't die.
In hindsight this show segment was a masterpiece.
I hope he continues to do the Hungry for power games. They are hilarious lol
This was probably the best "Hungry for Power Games" segment so far.
every time I hear that sound, I get the chills
I love this bit because you can hear a little Phil Ken Sebben in his laugh. HA HAA!
I loved how he waited on the calculator to print, that delivery was fantastic I'm in tears right now. 😹😹😹
Best Segment Ever
Man, I love that Colbert kept the old calculator bit. Loved it from his old show.
Finally! The long over-due Hungry For Power Games.
Short or not, I am just glad Jon Batiste's mic isn't on during these segments.
+Josef Trejbal Yeeeeaah! Whaaaa?
3:31 "To know him is to him..NO!" I laughed myself stupid at this :D
Now I eagerly await Jeb Bush and his farewell. :)
He's a comedic genius!
This show is much better than his last one!
To know him is to, him no.
This was the best one yet. Jokes were on point.
The next time when Stephen looks toward the ceiling, then JLaw looks to the ceiling, then Caligula looks toward the ceiling, maybe they should add the band looking up also for "the fallen". I love this bit so much!! Love how he puts the eyebrows above his real eyebrows. I actually just saw the Hunger Games for the first time, just because of watching this.
This may be Colbert's greatest segment ever!!! I don't even miss The Word.
This is one of the best episodes
Oh man my all time favorite segment ! Colbert is killing it ! The Santorum withdrawal joke was epic
I'm gonna miss this.
These bits are so brilliant hahaha
absolute genius stephen!
The fact that there's 12 candidates too 😂👌🏼 literally the hunger games
Carly Fiorina from District Paper Jam LMAOOOOO
Colbert is by far the best host of any comedy show on now. For those of you who didn't know what naming a ferret "Caligula" implies... do a search on that name.
One word of warning: The movie Caligula has a lot of kinky stuff in it, but in the end it's kind of a "meh" by today's standards.
seems like stephen's over this bit.. 3 months ago he would have taken 15 minutes just ripping christie a new one... now he's just like 'mah whatever'
+fr3@kb!+¢h I think he had to handle too many at once this time.
+fr3@kb!+¢h Because rumor has it, if you say Chris Christie 3 times online he jumps out of your computer screen and force feeds you krispy kreme donuts until you vote for him or die of a clogged artery.
+SkyrimEs5 most beautiful thing I've ever read in my life
+SkyrimEs5 What a ridiculous thing to say. Chris Christie jumping?
Hahahaha, "District Paper Jam" and "District 12 Votes"! XD
It's great to hear Stephen talking about his home state of South Carolina. (Despite living up north and being a Democrat, deep down he still misses his hometown of Charleston.) Was anyone waiting for some barbecue jokes, or a "I do declare" impression for Lindsey Graham?
I just noticed at the end when they flash up on the ceiling, you can notice their districts have some funny dialogue about them.
I love this bit. It's bananas!
"no it's more than that....ITS! MONTY PYTHONS FLYING CIRCUS!"
WE LOVE YOU STEPHEN
This really puts the Kasich interview in context. #DeadOnArrival
Does anyone else remember when Santorum hinted about running for President (and gave Colbert a sweater-vest) on the Report in 2013?
I feel like this is the real Colbert.... He should do the entire show in this persona haha
Always a good day when a Hungry for Power Games video pops up in the feed.
Wtf you can't give Caligula champagne. He's probably underage.
They need to bring this back this is insane.
That dead on arrival joke killed me. XD
I love this and hope he keeps doing this segment! Does anyone know if there's a schedule for when he does these skits? I wanna go to a taping when he does one!
Also, he looked a lot like Stanley Tucci in this one! He really got his mannerisms down perfectly now!
Can't wait til Monday, when we get another one of these!
How does he change so quickly!!!!??!?!!?!
+John Colon Its pre-recorded so its just a cut.
"Donald Trump battles everyone who makes eye contact with him" - He's a Pokemon trainer?
This is what I call a grand slam!
I am so pumped to see the Hungry for Power Games segment for Jeb.
Four down, way too many to count to go.
I love how he types on the calculator the way Chuck Noblet did on SWC. Didn't even get a chuckle from the crowd.
Stephen Colbert is so freaking hilarious! I love this guy!
Stephen, I think the reason the audience didn't laugh very hard at the "pigs flying over inauguration" joke is bc it went over their heads lolol
He is absolutely vicious in every single one of these segments and it's entertaining beyond limits. I guess other people's misfortune does taste like honey especially if it's served by Stephen.
These are incredible. Time for a Jeb video.
best segment ever
*Looks at Caligula*
Wait, is Donald Trump's hair co hosting this segment?
I've been waiting for this for weeks....
"DISTRICT 12 VOTES"
10/10
I had no idea Rick Santorum was running.
Now it's Jeb Bush's turn to be on the Fallen list. XD
Jeb! is gone, time for another one!
Caligula for president 2024
Seems a little rushed...stop all dropping out at once brave tributes! We want a 8mins segment on each of you!
You know what's weird? With those blue eyebrows on, I for some reason completely neglect to notice his *actual* eyebrows.
YES! He used to do that with the calculators in "Strangers With Candy!"
This needs to come back for 2020
The District they said Gilmore is from at the end, had me rollin for a minute....
133*(11^7) = 2,591,793,743
Math checks out. #confirmed
I was kinda hoping that when they showed Jim Gilmore on the ceiling, it would be the dog
Poor Colbert hasn't even cracked a million subs yet.
That was hysterical!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I want the candidates to drop out one by one, spaced apart by at least a week so we can get more of these episodes
Yes ....Stephen does hv a problem ... His problem is that he is too fu*#kin hilarious .😂😂😂😂
I wish he would've split this video into 2.
I thought the goal of Hungry For Power Games was to mention the craziest stuff those Republicans did/said.
Jeb dropped out just so Colbert could make another one of these master pieces, what a selfless man.
Im so ready for Jeb's Hungry for power games lol
LOL cracked up at "District 12 Votes".
Colbert for President!!!
I know what this video was about, every time he says "Its like the Hunger games... No, its more than that... Its... The Hungry for Power Games!" I crack up every time.
Colbert is funnier then ever
