'Your Whole Damn Thing!': Stephen Colbert Torches Trump Over Biggest Flip-Flop Yet

4 days ago 1

Late Show” host Stephen Colbert slammed President Donald Trump over the weekend’s attacks on Iran carried out by U.S. B-2 stealth bombers.

“On one hand, Iran’s slogan isn’t, ‘Life to America,’” Colbert pointed out. “But it’s hard to trust Donald Trump to be the one making these kinds of decisions. It kind of feels like we’re all in the back seat while the Uber driver goes on a road rage.”

After the attack, Trump hinted at backing regime change in Iran with a spin on his “Make America Great Again” slogan.

“MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, adding “MIGA!!!”

“MIGA?” Colbert repeated in disbelief. “Your whole damn thing is ‘America First.’ You can’t just hand other countries your slogan! That’s like if McDonald’s had an ad campaign that said, ‘I’m loving it ... it being Burger King.’”
