President Trump is celebrating the end of CBSs The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
I absolutely love that Colbert got fired, he wrote on Truth Social. His talent was even less than his ratings.
The president then directed his attention to other late night hosts.
I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert! Greg Gutfeld better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show.'
The comments come hours after Paramount, CBSs parent company, announced the show is coming to an end in May 2026 and it was for financial reasons only.

Stephen Colbert should run for office, if he has a stomach for it. He absolutely would win.

He's always struck me as too determined to be liked by all to have any real sharp humor directed at any major figure.
