Stephen Colbert mocks Donald Trump’s latest threat to Iran

Stephen Colbert addressed Donald Trump’s Truth Social post. In that post, the President warned about wiping out a “whole civilization” if Iran did not comply with the USA’s attempts at a ceasefire.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?” Trump wrote from his Truth Social account, “We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World.”

Colbert addressed this in his monologue. He said, “For over two weeks now, he’s been threatening to destroy Iran’s civilian infrastructure, which many war crimes experts say ‘is many war crimes.'” He added, “To drive home his point, this morning Trump posted this chilling message.”

After reading out the message aloud, Colbert added, “Okay, that is very upsetting by any measure.” He went on to point out a key thing in the statement. Colbert said, “He doesn’t say which civilization will die tonight.” He added, “Because ours has been seen wandering on a highway overpass,” drawing laughter from the live audience.

“Trump has promised to deliver this civilization-ending blow tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern. So bad news, the world might end, good news, not until after Wheel of Fortune. Okay? ‘I’d like to buy a vowel and a bunker, please,'” he added.

Soon after this monologue, YouTube comment sections, as well as other social media platforms, started buzzing with discussions around Colbert’s monologue.
