Elizabeth Warren would like to donate now
Senator Elizabeth Warren said she managed to call President Trump's bluff, but he did not admit it. The President has repeatedly accused Warren of lying about his Native American heritage, claiming that he would give a million dollars to a charity of his choice if a DNA test revealed that she had Native American origins.
But last week she received the results of a DNA test that showed her a small amount of Indian blood. Now, she says she's expecting Trump to pay. Stephen Colbert said it seemed to imply that Warren was aiming for a higher position.
"This test accurately reveals, with great confidence, that Elizabeth Warren stands for the presidency." – STEPHEN COLBERT
In "The Daily Show", Trevor Noah underlined Trump's response: the president told reporters on Monday that he did not care about Warren's DNA test and that he never offered to pay $ 1 million to a charity.
"Even though Elizabeth Warren has passed the test, he now says that he's not going to pay the million dollars. So, basically, this white man made a promise to Senator Warren and then came back to what he said. So I guess she's really Native American after all. "- TREVOR NOAH
Colbert tape from the July rally where Trump said he would pay $ 1 million to a charity if Warren produced DNA results showing the Native American heritage. At the rally, Trump said that he would do the Warren DNA test "gently, because we are in the # MeToo generation". Colbert was scandalized by this.
"I'm going to stop here, just to point out that Trump has gone to great lengths to poke a #MeToo joke in the middle of his racist tirade. It's like he's making an ash that's all. – STEPHEN COLBERT
Colbert on Kanye
Colbert was not on the air last week, which deprived him of the opportunity to make fun of Kanye West for his move to the Oval Office. But Monday, Colbert managed to get a shot with the help of his band leader, Jon Batiste.
STEPHEN COLBERT: I had this strange dream where I could have sworn that Kanye West went to the Oval Office and started talking about repealing the 13th Amendment.
BATISTE JON: Yes, it happened.
COLBERT: That happened? I thought I might have been drinking absinthe all week.
CAMBRIC: No, it has happened.
COLBERT: What – alert spoiler, I drank absinthe all week.
The Punchiest Punchlines (Ariana Grande Edition)
"This is one of the most troubling human rights violations in recent history, yet Donald Trump goes to great lengths to find excuses for Saudi Arabia. Do not forget: he can barely bend. before. "- STEPHEN COLBERT, discussing Trump's defense of the Saudi government after the alleged murder of a journalist
"We're here until Friday night, and then we go back to L.A. It's a limited commitment just like Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande." – JIMMY KIMMEL, announcing the beginning of a week of recorded concerts at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York
