Stephen Colbert, like a real genius

Thank you, Stephen.  You are one of the reasons I have any sanity left at all.  I’m sure the Republicans out there if you haven’t left yet are doubting that I have any. As hard as it is to believe I never heard of Colbert until he started taking pot shots at Trump.  Apparently, I was not the only one.  Since February of 2017, Stephen has dominated the late night TV ratings.  Longtime champion, The Tonight Show has lost 21% of their audience over the previous year.

The temptation is to share some of the funniest and wittiest gems from the show.  If I  did that, it would be a book instead of a blog post.  Midnight Confessions is the name of the book and Stephen released it in 2017.  It isn’t about political satire.  It is a segment of the show which shares its name with the book’s title.  It starts out with, “These may not necessarily be sins, but I feel bad about them.”  Steve sits behind a wall, reminiscent of a Catholic confessional.  He then confesses things to the audience and closes by asking for forgiveness from them.

There is not a lot that is funny about the Trump administration.  What little there is, Stephen will find and share in a much wittier way than any of us could. If you haven’t already, tune into CBS at 11:35 pm EST/10:35 pm CST.  It is cheaper than valium and works just as well.  Rock on dude!
