On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump reportedly launched a series of insults at Late Show host Stephen Colbert after Colbert described Trump as “boring” and announced that he would not be appearing on his show again.
“I briefly watched an interview of Stephen Colbert on highly government subsidized PBS, and found it fascinating for only one reason — Why would they be wasting time and the public’s money on this complete and total loser?” Trump wrote in a new Truth Social post.
“He is not funny, which he gets paid far too much to be, he is not wise, he is VERY BORING, and his show is dying from a complete lack of viewers —Gutfeld, on cable, is killing him! CBS should terminate his contract and pick almost anyone, right off the street, who would do better, and for FAR LESS MONEY — Or I could recommend someone, much more talented, and smarter, who would do it for FREE! The good news for Stephen is that the two DOPES on NBC & ABC are not much better than him!” he added.
During an interview with PBS NewsHour on Monday, Trump appeared to object to Colbert’s comments.
“I’ve had him before, and he was kind of boring, so no. I don’t like to have people on the show who I don’t think are gonna be honest agents of their own ideas. Politicians always represent an idea, so if I think a politician is disingenuous– and not to point out Mr. Trump specifically because there are many politicians I wouldn’t want to talk to that I think do not honestly represent what they actually believe, but are rather just playing to a crowd. So that’s just no fun.” Colbert said.
