President Donald Trump released a lengthy prerecorded speech on Facebook this week. The speech was riddled with his usual attacks on the election and was widely criticized.
Stephen Colbert was among the critics of the president’s speech. During his show on Wednesday night, Colbert called it a “conspiracy theory-filled rant on Facebook.” Moments later, he said the speech was “uncut, blue-flake crazy packed in a straw and blown right into the brain stem of the kamikaze MAGA dead-enders.”
The president began his speech by saying, “This may be the most important speech I’ve ever made.”
Colbert ripped that remark, saying “It may be the most impotent speech ever made.”
He continued, “Because it was just another rambling mass of lies that lasted a full 46 minutes. My big complaint: he should have done this a week ago. Not because he said anything worth hearing but at least the people who cancelled the big family Thanksgiving could have pretended they were still eating with their racist uncle.”
