Before the House intelligence committee’s report, the GOP released their own “pre-buttal” in which they concluded that Trump “was acting on genuine and reasonable skepticism of Ukraine.” Yes, because the two words everyone uses to describe Donald Trump are genuine and reasonable, right after athletic and monogamous. --Stephen Colbert
The Republican claims were bogus, because their argument is based on the claim that Ukraine, not Russia, hacked the DNC server – an idea that’s been completely debunked as a Russian-fueled conspiracy theory. Plus, even if Ukraine had meddled in the 2016 election, the proper organization to investigate that is not Rudy Giuliani. There’s a reason why the CBS show FBI is not called My Drunken Personal Attorney. --Stephen Colbert
On the president’s trip to London to celebrate Nato’s 70th anniversary. “Like most anniversaries, Trump was in a bad mood, wishing he was with a younger eastern European ally.” --Stephen Colbert
And of course, there’s the video of world leaders laughing at Trump, in which Trudeau described Trump’s impromptu press conference as “you just watched his team’s jaws drop to the floor.” Hey Justin, be nice! Stephen Miller’s jaw only does that when it’s feeding time and they bring him the baby deer. --Stephen Colbert
There is a video of world leaders trashing Trump. Trudeau is one thing, but Boris Johnson – that’s the one that’s gotta hurt most. Boris? Sweet, disheveled, crazy hair Boris? He’s supposed to be the Donald Trump of England and he’s laughing. --Jimmy Kimmel
“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic.
A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night On Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
