#FireColbert Twitter campaign gains steam after Stephen Colbert's profane Donald Trump takedown

#FireColbert is on fire.

Talk show host Stephen Colbert is taking serious heat on social media for a profane joke he made about President Donald Trump that many fans are calling "homophobic."

The "Late Show" star sounded off on Trump during his opening monologue Monday night, criticizing Trump for abruptly ending an interview with CBS News' "Face the Nation" host John Dickerson.

"Sir, you attract more skinheads than free Rogaine," Colbert said during his profranity-laced rant, which was bleeped during the telecast. "You have more people marching against you than cancer. You talk like a sign language gorilla that got hit in the head. In fact, the only thing your mouth is good for is being Vladimir Putin's c–k holster."

Fans immediately took issue with Colbert's final joke, with some calling the comedian homophobic, and demanding CBS fire him.

First, "cock holster" isn't "homophobic".

Secondly, Stephen Colbert is an ass clown (also not homophobic).

I'm free to continue not watching his show.

I really don't care otherwise. He's a moron, just like that British "comedian" and other late night TV hacks.

Bill Clinton used a cigar holster in the Oval Office. The left gave him a medal and an impeachment party.

Look at all those blue chip brands advertising on Colbert. Now compare it to the no name companies you see advertising on Hannity and Rush. If that isn’t agenda and blacklisting nothing is.

the election was six months ago...
and, Hillary is gonna join the resistance. Geez...."

Hit him where he is vulnerable ..
notify his advertisers that his behavior is unacceptable
and you won't support this type of behavior, language, nor his advertisers who finance him .
It worked on O'Reilley on Faux.
Use the lefts Alynski rules on the left, and make it fun.

Colbert is nothing but a vile piece of white trash and getting paid lots of money for it. And anyone from now on who watches him is trashy.

No one offers that kind of insult to a person’s face and expect to walk away intact, so extreme cowardice can be added to his character profile.

WHY would anyone be surprised that Colbert is in bed with the leftists? WIKILEAKS showed us Colbert was a traitor last year.

Let’s replace Obama or Hillary’s name for Trump’s and post it all over facebook and the internet.

Liberal heads will explode all over the place.

CBS is still on the public broadcast band? I had thought they had gone entirely to cable...

And like Al Jazeera, had ceased operations in the US.

I knew it! They aren’t upset that he offensively insulted the president, an act that would have him fired that night had he said it about Barry, but are upset that he used a “homophobic slur”. Even lefties know deep down it is a severe insult to suggest someone is a poofter.
