Colbert Unleashed! Tells Trump to 'Go F--- Yourself' After Show Axed!
Stephen Colbert didn't hold back on Monday night after President Trump taunted him about the cancellation of "The Late Show." In a fiery monologue, Colbert responded to Trump's Truth Social post celebrating the show's end, delivering a blunt message to the former president.
Trump had written, "I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert! Greg Gutfeld is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show."
Colbert's Response: Unfiltered and Unapologetic
Colbert, addressing the audience, retorted, "How dare you, sir? Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism? Go f--- yourself." The audience erupted in cheers following his explicit response.
He also joked about being able to speak his mind more freely now that the show's run is limited. "And now for the next ten months, the gloves are off," Colbert declared. "I can finally speak unvarnished truth to power, and say what I really think about Donald Trump starting right now. I don’t care for him."
CBS's Explanation for Cancellation
CBS announced last Thursday that "The Late Show" would be canceled next May. The network clarified that the decision was purely financial, citing a challenging late-night environment. They emphasized that the cancellation was not related to the show's performance, content, or any other matters at Paramount.
