Stephen Colbert fans expected the Emmy host to come out swinging against his favorite target.
It took a few minutes, but eventually, President Donald Trump was all that Colbert could talk about.
Hello sir, thank you for joining us.
Looking forward to the tweets.
He later added, The biggest TV star of the last year is Donald Trump.
And, you know, Alec Baldwin.
You guys are neck and neck, and Alec, you are up against a lot of neck.
Said Colbert: You cannot deny every Trump has been influenced by Trump in some way.
Why didnt you give him an Emmy?
If he had won an Emmy, I bet he wouldnt have run for president, Colbert joked.
In a way, this is allyourfault.
I thought you people love morally compromised anti-heroes.
You love Walter White.
Then Colbert continued: But he didnt.
Where do I find the courage to tell that joke in this room?
But knock first, you dont just want to walk in.
Bill Maher, I assume hes black since hes so comfortable using the n-word.
Earlier this month, Colbert drew heat for mocking the president bydoing a Nazi saluteon air.
You know, how like the Bible outsells every book of all time.
Donald Trump is the Bible of the 2016-2017 television season.
If you dont include Donald Trump as a TV star this year, youre lying.
