【The Exotic Time Machine】
We're betting Stephen Colbert will have The Exotic Time Machinesome thoughts on Donald Trump's latest media tirade.
In an interview with Time, the president lashed out atThe Late Showhost, calling him "no-talent" and "filthy" following Colbert's controversial May 1 monologue, in which the Colbert Report alum made an oral sex joke about the POTUS and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Read Trump's comments on Colbert below:
You see a no-talent guy like Colbert. There’s nothing funny about what he says. And what he says is filthy. And you have kids watching. And it only builds up my base. It only helps me, people like him. The guy was dying. By the way they were going to take him off television, then he started attacking me and he started doing better. But his show was dying. I’ve done his show. … But when I did his show, which by the way was very highly rated. It was high highest rating. The highest rating he’s ever had.
Colbert has certainly seen his ratings rise in the wake of Trump's election, and the host has been a frequent and outspoken critic of the president's policies and actions -- the most recent example being the firing of FBI director James Comey.
Trump also slammed CNN's Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon during the Time interview, calling the former "a chained lunatic" and the latter "perhaps the dumbest person in broadcasting."
Ouch. We have a feeling Colbert's ratings will get another boost tonight...
