‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ Teases Donald Trump For Moving Inauguration Inside: ‘You Weather Cuck!’

On the initial episode of “The Late Show” on CBS, broadcasted on Inauguration Day, Stephen Colbert advised us to follow “airport rules” for the upcoming four years, which means disregarding calorie intake and finding it entirely acceptable to have a vodka tonic at 8 in the morning.

However, it’s remarkable to note that an individual with a criminal record and history of inciting supporters to attack the Capitol and challenge the government’s authority has found himself back in the White House – the Oval Office, to be precise.

Secretary of Defense Don Rumsfeld had three categories for knowledge, as explained by Colbert: ‘known knowns’, or things we are aware we know; ‘known unknowns’, items we recognize that we don’t know; and ‘unknown unknowns’, facts we aren’t even aware we don’t know. He warned the ‘unknown unknowns’ were risky, but he didn’t discuss a fourth category. That overlooked category is the ‘unknown knowns’, things that we consciously decide to ignore for some reason. It seems plausible that the American public has intentionally ignored what they already knew about Donald Trump.

Colbert playfully ridiculed Trump for holding his event inside: “Are you, the mightiest president ever, getting a bit cold? Would you like some warm hot chocolate with marshmallows? You’re afraid of the weather, aren’t you?

He further pointed out that since the ceremony was shifted to the Rotunda at the Capitol, seating around 700 individuals, it implies that Donald Trump’s inauguration audience will hold the record for being the smallest ever.

At his inauguration, Trump chose not to place his hand on the Bible during the oath of office ceremony. As per Stephen Colbert’s humor, when it was initially planned to be held outside, Trump intended to place his hand on the Bible once they moved it indoors; however, the fire marshal wouldn’t permit it due to safety concerns. The joke is that if Trump didn’t touch the Bible, is he truly the president? Colbert playfully questions, who actually touched the Bible then? His wife Melania, raising the question of whether she could be considered as president instead.

I found myself remarking that a substantial portion of Trump’s discourse seemed shrouded in darkness, and at times, it was downright peculiar. There were also some executive orders that struck me as unusual, such as his proposal to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. He even hinted at invading Panama once more, and continued to allege that the 2020 election was rigged.

Colbert noted TikTok’s “weak, obvious attempt to curry favor with Trump over the weekend… which was incredibly successful.

Interestingly, while Trump is currently supporting the app, TikTok, it was actually his administration that initially pushed for its ban during his first term as president. So why the change of heart? The reason seems intricate. He doesn’t appear to hold genuine convictions.

Furthermore, Donald Trump recently declared that John Voight, Mel Gibson, Sylvester Stallone, and Arnold Schwarzenegger would function as his “unique representatives” in a significant yet turbulent location, specifically Hollywood, California.

Reflecting on the current state of affairs in Hollywood, I can’t help but empathize with my fellow maturing stars who lean to the right. Kevin Sorbo, I’m curious about your thoughts on this?

At the conclusion of his speech, Colbert remarked, “We can’t predict with certainty what the next four years will be like, except that we certainly have a good idea, as Trump already kicked off what is likely his most dishonest scheme yet this weekend: Launching a Trump-branded cryptocurrency meme coin. It’s important to note that Trump isn’t the first to attempt such a swindle. His personal meme coin is simply following in the footsteps of the Hawk Tua Girl’s previous scam.
