“According to The New York Times’s Maggie Haberman, the real, real reason that Trump cancelled his speech is that it was becoming clear he wasn’t likely to get the live TV coverage he was hoping for. Well, that makes sense. Upstaging solemn events rarely gets good ratings. That’s why they canceled ‘Dick Clark’s Pearl Harbor’s Rockin’ Eve.’” —Stephen Colbert
“In his statement regarding the cancellation, Trump referred to the insurrection as a ‘completely unarmed protest’ and said he was moving the event from Mar-a-Lago to Arizona on Jan. 15. I‘d like to point out that they were armed. And when did we start having to say ‘unarmed’ protests? Protests are unarmed by default. That’s like saying: ‘We had a lovely weekend. It was a totally bloodless cotillion.’” —Stephen Colbert
“It makes sense that he’s moving it from Mar-a-Lago to Arizona, considering their state motto: ‘Arizona: America’s backup Florida.’” —Stephen Colbert
“According to publicly released documents, on 21 December 2020, Sean Hannity texted the White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows: ‘I do NOT see January 6 happening the way he is being told.’ So Hannity clearly knew what was coming. I wouldn’t be surprised if the former president planned this coup with the knowledge of the entire Fox News lineup, including the commercials.” —Stephen Colbert
“Apparently, Hannity saw some downsides to destroying our system of representative government. Hannity sent a text on January 5th, in which he told Mark Meadows he was ‘very worried about the next 48 hours’. So he either had advance knowledge of the plot, or he had just eaten three Taco Bell Burrito Supremes. Either way, he knew the next 48 hours were going to bring chaos.” —Stephen Colbert
