Come on Mr President, we’ve seen your taxes. You know what it’s like to be broke (Hey, how did you do it, Mary Poppins?)

“One of the side-effects of Trump’s infection is not an enlarged heart. Trump decided to halts talks on stimulus relief for struggling Americans. Come on Mr President, we’ve seen your taxes. You know what it’s like to be broke.” —Stephen Colbert

“[as Trump] We have the best medicine. We all have experimental treatments that nobody else has gotten. We all have the best helicopter to fly us to and from our publicly subsidized mansion that itself contains an in-home intensive care unit. We’re definitely gonna beat this virus. That’s what we all have. Not sure about you all, though. We all have that.” —Stephen Colbert

“Trump wanted this to be a show of strength, but moments after taking off his mask, he was clearly struggling to breathe. Still, it’s a strong look, because nothing bad ever happens to people who are famous for their balconies: Your Mussolini, your Saddam, your Juliets.” —Stephen Colbert

“Only Donald Trump would think climbing stairs is a feat of strength. [imitating Trump] ‘Now watch me drink water with one hand, and for my final trick, I will close this umbrella. It can’t be done! Hey, how did you do it, Mary Poppins?’” —Stephen Colbert

“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.”
