Colbert tells Trump ‘Go F — yourself’ Na President Exults about ‘Late Show’ Cancellation
Stephen Colbert had a concise message to President Trump, one that concerned an anatomical impossibility.
In his monologue that opens ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ on Monday, Colbert referred to Trump’s sudden decision to learn the show. The American president wrote last Friday in a position about Truth Social: “I absolutely love that Colbert was fired. His talent was even less than his reviews.”
With fake revaluation, Colbert said, “How do you dare, sir? Could a non -resilient man compile the following satirical witty?”
Colbert then appeared in a frame on the screen with the text “Eloquence Cam” and “Staring directly into the camera, a cut New York accent influenced:” Go fuck yourself. ” (The F-bomb was pumped out.) The line pulled a huge roar of the audience in the Ed Sullivan Theater, followed by cheers of “Stephen! Stephen! Stephen!”
In the monologue, Colbert noted that Trump also said in his online post: “I hear that Jimmy Kimmel is the next” to be fired. To which Colbert said: “No, no, no. Absolutely not. Kimmel, I am the martyr. There is only room for one on this cross. And the view is fantastic from here. I can see your house!”
“The Late Show” posted a preview of Colbert’s 21 June Monologue On Instagram Prior to the broadcast of the program on CBS with the caption: “Sticks and stones can break our bones, but presidential turds can never hurt us.”
Prior to the recording of Monday, a crowd of about 100 demonstrators gathered outside the Ed Sullivan Theater in Midtown Manhattan and shouted: “Trump must go, a jacket must remain,” said one after On X by James Martin, editor of Large for America Magazine. That was a supplement to a few hundred more waiting to see the show.
Colbert had announced the end of the show To the “Late Show” audience During the recording on Thursday, July 17 and that video was shared online. Colbert said he had discovered the decision on Wednesday evening. He gratefully expressed fans, his staff and CBS -EXECS (saying: “The people of CBS have been great partners”), but also regrets that the network left late night: “[I]T is a fantastic job. I wish someone else got it. “
The guests of Colbert are planned on Monday as actors Sandra Oh and Dave Franco. He returned to take it off after Friday (when CBS broadcast a repeat of the 24 June with John Cena and Lorde).
CBS, when announcing the cancellation of ‘The Late Show’, said it was ‘purely a financial decision’, and the Axing of the show follows years in the Economy of TV in the late night. The next season is the 11th and last season of Colbert’s Show on the network and the run ends in May 2026.
But the news also came two weeks after CBS -parent Paramount Global said that the Trump would pay $ 16 million to arrange its lawsuit in which an interview with “60 minutes” with Kamala Harris was decoriously edited. On July 14, Colbert said in his show that the settlement by the parent company of CBS was ‘a big, thick bribery’, claiming that Paramount made the payment because the company wants to secure the approval of the Trump administration to merge with Skydance Media.
Critics of Trump, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, Democrat van Massachusetts, suggested that the cancellation of CBS of Colbert’s Show was related to the Paramount Settlement. Warren has previously characterized the Paramount/CBS settlement as ‘bribery’. “America deserves to know if his show has been canceled for political reasons,” Warren said in a statement of July 17. On Friday, the Writers Guild of America called on the Attorney General from New York to investigate the conditions surrounding the cancellation of the late show “, where the Union said that it” had great worries that the cancellation of the late show is a bribery, which sacrifices the freedom of expression to be the favor of the Fuusing of the Trump -Administration. “
On Monday, Warren and Sens. Bernie Sanders and Ron Wyden sent a letter to Skydance CEO David EllisonAsk if Skydance and Trump had a “secret side deal”, apart from the Paramount Settlement. Trump has claimed that the settlement is actually worth no less than $ 35 million in ‘advertising’ factors. In the letter, the senators also asked Ellison if he “or other Skydance managers” “were involved in discussions about canceling” The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. ” ‘According to CBS, Skydance did not play a role in the decision to cancel the Late-Night Show (Skydance refused.)
Colbert, in the video of July 17, said to the audience: “Before we start the show, I want to let you know something that I discovered last night. Next year our last season will be. The network will end in May ‘The Late Show’.”
After the audience had responded with cries of dismay and angry, Colbert continued: “Yes, I share your feelings. It’s not just the end of our show, but it’s the end of ‘the late show’ on CBS. I am not replaced. I just go away. And I want to say that people at CBS are a big partners.
“And of course I am grateful to you, the audience that came here with us every night, there, all over the world, the Lord and Mrs. America, and all the ships at sea,” said Colbert. “I am grateful to share the stage with this band, these artists here every evening. And I am the 200 people who work here, extraordinary, deeply grateful. This usual gang of idiots for another 10 months.
