The biggest TV star of the year is Donald Trump. It's not Milo Ventimiglia's luscious abs. The biggest story of the year is not Westworld. It's not a political monologue, but you can't keep politics out of it, because politics was the biggest TV story this year. Colbert said: We are storytellers: The story we are telling is what happened on television this year. His commentary on Trump is all in good fun - and when prepping for his Emmys monologue, Colbert told Variety that he wanted to keep a balance between politics and entertainment. Colbert took some serious jabs at Trump while he was the host of Colbert Report on Comedy Central, and that's something he's continued to do as host of his current show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. If he can talk about how Meyers has "marbles in his mouth" then he will definitely have plenty to say about Colbert.Ĭolbert and Trump certainly have a history together. As Colbert joked in the monologue, Trump has, in the past, tweeted about the Emmys, criticizing host Seth Meyers in 2014. Just last year, he was trailing far behind Jimmy. And his lampooning of the president seems to have paid off. The president is one of the most popular television stars (both directly and indirectly), and loves to voice his opinion. Colbert’s monologues have largely focused on Trump, his aides and their gaffes. Needless to say, his tweets will definitely be coming in the morning. But unfortunately, as of press time the president hasn't responded to Colbert's monologue. Colbert finished his presidential jab with a kicker, stating that he "looked forward to reading the tweets" from the president. According to ABC News, Colbert personally thanked the president for tuning into the show, saying that Trump is "the only one who has enough time to keep current with television nowadays." That could not be any more true.Ĭolbert also joked about how the president was nominated for Emmys in the past and never won, but should have - because then he might never have run for the White House. He joked about the celebrities in the room, the TV shows up for awards, and most importantly - politics. But once he was done parading around the stage, he launched right in to some classic Colbert jokes. Where are you?ĭuring his monologue, Colbert did an amazing song and dance performance. 03:56 The Colbert ReportS9 Irans Presidential Election Iran elects a moderate - which means, instead of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad calling for Israelis to be driven into the sea, theyll be nudged into a lake. While the president hasn't said (or tweeted) anything (yet), Donald Trump's response to Stephen Colbert's Emmys monologue is something everyone started waiting for as soon as Colbert finished speaking. Stephen tells the Colbert Nation a little bit about his mother, Lorna Colbert, who died at age 92. So when Colbert took the job of hosting the 2017 Emmy Awards, he was bound to throw some jabs at President Donald Trump - and he did. They have all responded on Twitter, agreeing their country is run by a corrupt and inept leader.Stephen Colbert knows a thing or two about politics - he has practically built his career pointing out the blunders of politicians. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came." Three of the representatives were born in the U.S. President Trump says the detention centers are "well run and clean" in contradiction to a report from the Office of Inspector General Department of Homeland Security, "Concerns about ICE Detainee Treatment and Care at Four Detention Facilities," on June 3, 2019, that notes squalid conditions at all four inspected facilities. On Sunday, July 14, 2019, President Trump unleashes a tweet attack on four Democratic congresswomen saying, "So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run.
