Stephen Colbert Re-Interviews Donald Trump For ’60 Minutes’
Lisa de Moraes, Deadline 1 hour 47 minutes ago 
UPDATED with video: Stephen Colbert turned Lesley Stahl ’s interview with President Donald Trump – in which POTUS snapped “I’m president and you’re not” among other idiotic remarks – into his interview with Donald Trump.
This time, it made perfect sense:
“Mr President, you’ve been president for two years,” Colbert began.
“There is something really terrible and disgusting about that,” Trump agreed.
“If you get rid of Jeff Sessions, who would you replace him with?” Colbert asked, hoping to make some news.
“Pillows and blankets,” Trump announced.
Colbert also wondered what Trump plans to do if it turns out the Saudi prince was behind the murder of Washington Post contributor Jamal Khashoggi.
“We’re going to get to the bottom of it and there will be severe punishment,” Trump responded.
“Is that another lie?” Colbert asked.
“Yeah,” Trump admitted.
“Are you ever going to tell the truth?” Colbert inquired.
“Don’t count on it,” POTUS advised.
“Your presidency hasn’t been a complete tragedy,” Colbert admitted. “Don Jr. and Eric are ridiculous.”
“They’re a laughing stock all over the world,” Trump admitted.
“Why do you think you get away with your unprecedented mountain of lies?” Colbert wondered.
“I’m president and you’re not,” Trump explained.

Love, love, love, love, love Stephen Colbert!
He's smart, likeable, funny and appeals to a majority of Americans, unlike this current President.
"Per Nielsen ratings for the year’s first quarter, Colbert averaged 4.02 million DVR-adjusted viewers — a massive 20 percent leap compared to the same time frame in 2017 — and well ahead of both Fallon (2.76 million) and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live (2.35 million)."
Colbert would be a thousand times better President than the incompetent feckless moron-in-Chief we have now.
He's doing so well. I miss when he had his own show 'The Colbert Report' but who can blame him for moving up, up, up, up, up?
“We’re going to get to the bottom of it and there will be severe punishment,” Trump responded.
“Is that another lie?” Colbert asked.
“Yeah,” Trump admitted.
Exactly! In addition to totally obfuscating about the Saudi's role in the killing, the Trumpster will do what he always does-- he will do his best to make the whole situation unclear..."muddy the waters" (to coin a phrase).
(Interestingly, Sen. Lindsay Graham isn't try to do that-- he's doing quite the opposite!)
