Colbert Mocks Trump’s Slam on ‘Little Adam Schitt’: ‘What a Miserable Piece of Schiff’
Stephen Colbert kicked off the new week on The Late Show by running through a list of President Trump‘s most roast-able moments throughout the weekend. Of course, there was no way Colbert could pass up a chance to talk about Trump’s very juvenile (accidental?) insult for Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA).
There’s been a lot of confusion lately since, as Colbert noted, many people couldn’t tell if Trump made a typo or a deliberate insult yesterday when he referred to the upcoming House Intelligence Committee chair as “Little Adam Schitt.” After Colbert pointed out the flaws in Trump’s broader swipe against Schiff, he delighted in the fact that POTUS’ insult gave him a free pass to say the word “shit” on air, and he decided to take full advantage of it.
“Ugh, what a miserable piece of Schiff,” Colbert quipped. “According to network rules, I am only allowed to say that word when the president’s tweet appears on-screen…at which point I can totally say it. Am I going to take advantage of that opportunity? Is Adam Schitt in the woods?”
Colbert also used his opener to take on Trump biggest news-making comments from his interview with Fox News’ Chris Wallace. As such, Colbert made note of how Trump is currently in a feud with Bill McRaven, the former NAVY admiral and architect of Osama Bin Laden‘s demise.
“You just got Seal team dissed” Colbert declared after highlighting McRaven’s clap-back to the president.
