‘Moron!’ Kevin O’Leary Torches Colbert for Telling Trump to ‘F Off’ — Predicts CBS Will Fire Him Immediately
Shark Tank co-host Kevin O’Leary tore into CBS Late Show host Stephen Colbert on Tuesday for his profane attack on President Donald Trump and predicted that — as a result — CBS will pull the plug on Colbert immediately.
In a fiery rant on Tuesday’s edition of CNN NewsNight, O’Leary ripped Colbert for telling Trump “Go fuck yourself!” during his first monologue after the announcement that CBS will end the Late Show next May.
“Here’s the problem for Colbert: His contract is a payout contract through a transaction where there’s a change of control,” O’Leary said. “Only a moron would tell the president to F off before he gets his check.”
The Shark Tank co-host predicted that even though the announced plan is for Colbert to continue his show through next May, CBS won’t let him finish out the week.
“So what’s gonna happen now, in my opinion, is tomorrow, CBS — his boss — will fire him, and they will litigate for the next five years his payout,” O’Leary said.
“Get rid of this guy!” O’Leary added. “If I were them, I’d whack this guy tomorrow.”
