Here’s a Clip From Colbert’s Showtime Special, if for Some Reason You Think Comedy Will Save Us

Showtime
When comedian Peter Cook founded comedy club The Establishment in 1961, he said the model was “those wonderful Berlin cabarets which did so much to stop the rise of Hitler and prevent the outbreak of the Second World War.” In that spirit, Stephen Colbert gave an uncensored monologue on his Showtime special tonight that eviscerated Donald Trump and skewered his white supremacist supporters, saving democracy forever. He even calls Trump “fucko!”
Congratulations, everyone—the country is safe.
