This video provides an overview of the roughly 10-year history of the contentious relationship between Donald Trump and talk show host Stephen Colbert.

Key highlights and segments include:

Early Conflict (2016-2020): The video revisits the 2016 campaign, including Colbert's interview with Trump and his eventual prediction that Trump would not be president (0:20 - 2:55).

It touches on Colbert's reactions to the 2016 and 2020 election results (3:06 - 3:27). Continued Tension (2021-2024): Even while Trump was out of office, the two remained frequent topics of discussion for one another, with Trump often criticizing Colbert on Truth Social (3:28 - 4:15). Cancellation and Final Broadcast (2025): The video covers the 2025 announcement that The Latehow would be canceled.

Colbert publicly questioned the financial re asoning provided by CBS, while Trump celebrated the news (4:25 - 5:54). The Finale: The video depicts the end of Colbert's nearly 11-year run on The Late Show, noting Trump's social media posts mocking the conclusion of the show (6:00 - 7:36).

Closing Reflection: The creator concludes with a personal reflection on attending a taping of The Late Show in 2016, noting that the show felt far less political and more focused on entertainment at the time than it eventually became in later years (8:02 - 8:59).

“This video provides an overview of the roughly 10-year history of the contentious relationship between Donald Trump and talk show host Stephen Colbert. Colbert had a variety show didn’t he?

[Red Badger]

Before he was on Late Night, he was on Comedy Central where he played a ‘fake’ conservative and he played into every stereotype imaginable...............

Colbert is a disgusting vile evil person. He clearly made bank on pimping the Fauci toxin upon the public. I wonder if he lost his job after USAID was no longer pumping the Samantha Power cash flow spigots to NGO slush funds kicking back dollars.
