Bijan Shadnia Collusion isn't a crime. However, conspiracy and aiding and abetting with foreign agents to influence an election. Definitely a crime. Rudy just keeps on giving.
Bijan Shadnia it’s certainly not a plausible excuse in any country, according to Thomas Jefferson. That would allow too many opportunities to pretend one was unaware of one’s own wrongdoing. Now that reminds me of someone who’s in the news every hour on the hour these days.
@Carlie W - I only take issue with your comment that 'now' they are looking very stupid. ;) They've been looking incredibly stupid for a lot longer than just now, hahahahahaha.
Aisha Abdikarim Not true. Trumps statements are as clear as a one note samba.Its his administration who has to do the clarifying. He hires people like Giulliani to try to fill in the spaces that he cannot fill himself.I dont think he understands that all he does is make things WORSE.
This was a particularly slick monologue lol ... I feel like as the steel trap closes on these douchebags we're just gonna get better and better material for some of the late night hosts.
What's up today with all this people going around commenting about hollywood pedophiles and Satan? I've watched 3-4 videos today, all of them had several people ranting about it for no particular reason
Carolyn's RV Life But the amazing thing is that they are getting away with everything.We fret because our country is under siege and they smirk while they push their policies through and serve them up on tarnished silver dinner plates. If this man wins in 2020 there could very well be an internal war.
"No, Treason isn't a crime because our guy did it." ""So you admit he committed treason?" ""Ok, I'm done with these mean questions, that's so unfair. I'm leaving"
8:35 Giuliani: "Oh, yeah, you've _"scared me away!'_ Do I look really scared?" He asked, as he sank further into his chair while unable to look Camerota in the eye.
Poor Ghouliani, who should be sitting somewhere quiet, playing bridge, or having his toe-nails manicured. Something like that, and a friendly tap on the head by a nurse, when he goes off on one of his madcap mumbling-streaks. Maybe a pill to sedate the poor fellow.
@Jackie Graves: :) it's marvelous, isn't it? Perhaps because he's been a War Hero with umpteen earned medals? A strong and good man and republican war hero at that! I call it 'Karma coming around' after cadet bone spurs tried to use our military to play toy soldiers with. He honestly does not see them as people...they're merely objects to move around and play with for his amusement and to satisfy his grandiose ideas - for his malignant narcissism. ANYONE in the Military or retired Veterans who still might think this draft dodger whose daddy bought him out of Vietnam cares one whit about them should pay close attention to just who has been working for many years to help veterans...it hasn't been HIM - but democratic senators. He lies, lies, lies - and somehow some believe him? I've no idea why they would since his entire history is of telling outrageous lies. Vote vets dot org is made up of veterans who know better, btw. My own Combat Vet husband used to vote only Republican - absolutely DESPISES this horrid man (we're in New York so know all about how awful he's been here) and wouldn't pull a lever for him if you paid him a million dollars to do so. He voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and now takes great pleasure in still being a registered republican, getting their calls and mailings and screwing with all of their desperate begging for funds and informing them that it's because of their 'leader' that he can no longer support a single republican running for office. :)
ElizabethGS you're lucky he's the president of USA. In many other countries a president like this would have collapsed an entire nation. You're lucky that USA has a lot of buffer still due to the good endeavours of many previous administrations.
Jerry Guerra + ElizabethGS - and God bless you, all of you, for your service to not only your country, but also in the name of everything that is decent and free in this world. Full agreement to points raised, and heartfelt thanks from one of your (remaining) British allies. 👍
So, Giuliani says the president didn't attend a meeting that never took place to plan a Russia meeting he knew nothing about especially not in advance. Got it!
44slack, that's exactly why I keep posting things like that rather regularly. Please do use it! If you want some variation, I'll give you the bank robbery version too: "Yes, I drove the getaway car for the bank robbery, but is driving a crime?"
Let's see if I got this right. "He is the Stephen King of the horror story we live in." What will likely be one of the many and most memorable quotes to come from this presidency, this has my vote for quote of the week.
Back in the 90's I sort of remember a news article that said a lot of Rudy's convictions were overturned when he was US Attorney for the Southern District...I can now see why!
From here in Canada, these past few years have been so sad to watch unfold. This is like watching alcoholism take down your older brother. We love you guys, and we know that this current state of America is not the real deal. Make better, wiser political choices next time around. Please and thank you.
Your post gave me such a warm fuzzy feeling. Thank you. It's encouraging to know that people in other countries know that the current president does not reflect the views of decent American people.
All we can say right now is we are very, very sorry. ps I’m Canadian too, and it’s taking all my loyal patriotism to not just move north, because I love my country but this is just awful.
From here in the UK I second your comments. We are all praying for the orange nightmare's prosecution but Pence must not be allowed to take over. A man who thinks that the world is only 6,000 years old and evolution is a conspiracy by scientists is also unfit for such a high office.
You, sir, are reading way too much in-between the lines of my post. Condescending me with the belief I don't already know what treason means does not help your case. You're also sorely underestimating the stupidity of Trump administration officials and of the clown-in-chief himself.
Lon Denard It wasn't A meeting. It was meetings by Trump's campaign all throughout. Lots of them. And the "stable genius" who surrounds himself with the best ppl knew nothing about any of it? He was oblivious too everything? Come on, man!
he is using the constitution's definition of treason. so by his definition every confederate soldier, general, politician or citizen committed treason. by other definitions of treason, like the rest of the world's definition, yes it was treason, an act of betraying something or someone.
he's like a magnified troll. Tried to make you shut up about it by bringing up facts that look even more shady thus invalidate the rest of the debate. So funny listening him talk.
Yann Courtel I had the thought when he was first hired and started shooting off his mouth that maybe he was crazy like a fox. That this was his way to get revenge for the way Trump treated him before. Then I thought "naaah" 😏

It's better business this way. Colbert only gets a single spot on trending anyways at the best of times. So they maximize the chances of getting the trending spot and maximize revenue on the video since they surpass the 10 minute and other benchmarks. It'll likely give more, in various ways, than 3 lesser videos in this case.
Devin Morton I’m wondering if Giuliani is that bad of a lawyer or if he’s lying up a “well he did do X, but at least he didn’t do Y” only to be told “...Giuliani, Y actually did happen!” But why leave him uninformed of anything. As Trump’s lawyer he wouldn’t be allowed to testify it.
Kind of. But ever since Fox debuted and 9/11 happened, there's kind of been this insanity-lite thing in the country. Like how the Dixie Chicks got death threats just because they didn't support war in the Middle East, or how paranoid Christian groups were out trying to convince gullible parents into believing that Pokemon was Satanic witchcraft and Spongebob was the homosexual Anti-Christ, or the Obama-era of chalkboard commentators trying to tie the Democratic Party, ACORN, and Solyndra to George Soros's Weather Underground, Saul Alinsky-inspired, Black Nationalist, *insert other conservative buzzword here* plot to destroy the world and it's traditional values. At least Stewart and Colbert were around back then to call a lot of it out.
Bruce Parker, Christian groups were trying to convince people that Dungeons and Dragons was satanic back in the late 70s, so that kind of thing isn't new, isn't since 9/11.
You aren't wrong; Christian groups have been trying to fearmonger for decades on a number of subjects, but it feels like they really got amplified after 9/11 and the rise of right wing media. Like, as 9/11 was still fresh in the minds of Americans, there were "Christians" in the media speculating on how the gays, pagans, and gypsies were the true cause of the attack and eventually how Katrina was God getting back at the growingly liberal U.S. Plus, "family group" leaders did often get good airspace from O'Reilly and co. (like with the "Spongebob is gay propaganda" thing).
OR he's setting up appellate grounds for inadequate representation? Meanwhile, where the hell is the only REAL attorney here, Emmet Flood? Sobbing in a bathroom stall somewhere?
Considering how they fucked over many other countries especially in the Middle East for DECADES, I may feel sorry for the people but politicians and such deserve much worse than this shitshow.
It occurs to me that the female Fox anchor fired for acting in an inappropriate sexual manner didn't get to spend years and years having the network cover up and/or payoff her accusers--she got let go immediately. Not that I'm defending her actions, just that it strikes me that in even this awful situation there is a double standard.
What's asinine is that Rudy says "He didn't pay them for HACKING!!" which implies, by the way he says it, that Trump did pay them for something. It's one of those blinds that seasoned (if not skillful) liars go to: obscure the truth behind something that is also true, but misrepresented.
Trumps claims to be very smart, if not the smartest ever. Yet picks the dumbest people to work for him. Keep waiting for Rod Serling to pop out of the shadows and welcome me to the Twilight Zone
Reminds me of the Rick James skit on the Chappelle Show. "Do you remember grinding your feet in Eddie's couch?" Rick James: "What am I gonna do, grind my feet on somebody's couch, like it's something to do? Come on I got a little more sense than that...Yeah I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch."
"The Stephen King of the horror story we now live in"... I'm sorry, but I've read every Stephen King book and I have to say, none were even close to this scary.
Giuliani's pause and then response at 12:59 when asked why he is bringing it up when no one has asked if the President was there is just precious. Then when he says it had been leaked but not public yet, well yes it's public, you're talking about it on TV. 😆😆😆😆😆
Who needs enemies when you have Guiliani? 🤣
Joker 🤡😹😂😇😀😂😁🤗🃏🎭🃏🎭
Tell me about it
"He's the Stephen King of the horror story we live in". That has to be one of the all time best one liners.

“I don’t know if colluding is illegal.“
Ignorance of the law is not an exemption from the law.
Bijan Shadnia Collusion isn't a crime. However, conspiracy and aiding and abetting with foreign agents to influence an election. Definitely a crime. Rudy just keeps on giving.
Bijan Shadnia I don't know why this made me laugh so hard. 😐😭😭😭👻
Ignorana juris non excuta
Unfortunately in this nightmare, Trump is using a line from the Nixon playbook - the President is above the law.
Bijan Shadnia it’s certainly not a plausible excuse in any country, according to Thomas Jefferson. That would allow too many opportunities to pretend one was unaware of one’s own wrongdoing. Now that reminds me of someone who’s in the news every hour on the hour these days.
".....Since when are crimes illegal?" I had to catch my breath!
”He’s the Stephen King of the horror story we live in” so funny and so eerily true
Trump is Greg Stillson of The Dead Zone...
Weird because Stephen King himself HATES Trump.
Rudy: The gift that keeps on giving.
Giuliani seems to be as good as a lawyer as Trump is as a businessman.
Paul Berevoescu how does that comment lead you to think they’re a troll? It was an astute comment actually. Also accurate.
Caroline Maybe dont brother the trolls making sensible comments look like troll comments is there new strategy.
juan gomez excellent comment!
Worst part is, I'll bet Rudy thinks 911 was the best thing that ever happened to him, the sicko.
juan gomez Trump is a crooked but successful business man.
Stephen Colbert you are so important for democracy. I wish there were more people like you.:)
www.LearningPsychology.net to be fair, John Stewart started it. Colbert is Johns predecessor. He is just as good, some may argue he is better? Selah
Well I'd have to agree that they're both Amazing. But Colbert has a Great Trump impersonation- I mean it's brilliant. John Oliver is amazing too
😊😊😊
Wait a minute, Rudy...The meeting had been "leaked" but "hadn't been made public yet?"
Do Giuliani and Trump even know what words mean?
No? What made you imagine they did?
Erik S You...you don't think...he actually believes they comprehend sentences, too? 😐
Im pretty sure he is Just reading the scripts trumpf gave him
Of course they do. They have the best words!🤣😭😢
@Carlie W - I only take issue with your comment that 'now' they are looking very stupid. ;) They've been looking incredibly stupid for a lot longer than just now, hahahahahaha.
Laughed sooo hard, my dogs started barking!! This is one of his best!! Thank you Stephen and crew, for keeping us laughing.
Your dogs: "Omg human! Are you okay?! I never hear that! Are you okay human?!" 😂😂😂😂😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Classic!! What a bunch of clowns. Colbert you're my go to man for news and you never let me down! 👏👏👏
Stephen King on Donald Trump: "Worse than any horror story I ever wrote."
Shawn Simmons 😂
Shawn Simmons Even the Shining!! That speaks volumes! 😉
That's easy, it's Stephen King. His stories invite a pitying laughter, not fear. Now, Thomas Ligotti on the other hand..
on to important question....when does the second part of "IT" come to theatre??????cheers!!
And yet look at all the good he has done for America
Colbert is just amazing
RENEHIKO agreed
So is Giuliani in his own special way.
This was a particularly slick monologue lol ... I feel like as the steel trap closes on these douchebags we're just gonna get better and better material for some of the late night hosts.
He's a Liberal WIMP just like you!

Proud Californian he hasn't practiced law in decades and went senile after being mayor. he should be in an old folks home for his own good.
Jonathan Taylor - but comparing them is false equivalence. Whether you liked Obama or not he wasn’t a criminal and immoral as well.
The current state of political debate in America:
"Treason is no longer a crime."
"Yes, it is."
"No, Treason isn't a crime because our guy did it."
""So you admit he committed treason?"
""Ok, I'm done with these mean questions, that's so unfair. I'm leaving"
'wait, we got coffee latte', 'ok I am staying'
It’s not treason. Trump has committed several crimes but not treason. Treason is assisting an enemy during wartime.

Oh, Giuliani, good god. 🤦 Let me just point out, 74 is old enough to retire.

Rudy being a lawyer is a crime
It should've been a crime for him to be Mayor of New York. Or be in New York. Or just be.
Rudy Giuliani may be the worst lawyer for Trump, but he's the best witness for Robert Mueller.

Also, he was able to provide a list of people that attended the meeting which did not happen, right?

Wow, a 14 minute clip and it's not cut into 3 clips. Props to the people managing The LSSC's RUclips channel.
It's better business this way. Colbert only gets a single spot on trending anyways at the best of times. So they maximize the chances of getting the trending spot and maximize revenue on the video since they surpass the 10 minute and other benchmarks. It'll likely give more, in various ways, than 3 lesser videos in this case.
If they cut it up they would have to have a video titled "CBS dude accused of sexual harassment," so they kept it all one clip.
BRAVO STEPHEN COLBERT
Pete re chief shuttup
Read the sign it sez laugh
Pete re chief , grow-up !
Pete re chief , can you really be that stupid ?! read a book ! think ! say a prayer ! GROW-UP !
X X you gone off tangentialy , Colbert is fake
This monologue is the longest I've seen
Turbid TG1 why it's the full monologue!
An the best one too.
I guess only the election one was longer
Turbid TG1 good to see in here from inside gaming/funhaus
And Stephen was just Killing it!
Colbert just gets better and better every night
Lock up all these Traitors !!
Giuliani’s mind has gone. He thinks he’s lawyering, but he’s just being a complete fool. How high the mighty have fallen!
Gary Cooper He hasn't fallen he was always like this
Before:
"There was NO collusion! WITCH HUNT!"
Now: "Collusion is not a crime!"
Next: "Crimes are not illegal."
OMG this has become so crazy.
Liars always stumble on their lies! This is incredible, for sure a screenwriter must be making a comedy with a tragic ending: impeachment!
'tragic ending'?
Only bad liars

Rudy Giuliani doesn’t know a lot of things, so I’m not surprised.
Devin Morton I’m wondering if Giuliani is that bad of a lawyer or if he’s lying up a “well he did do X, but at least he didn’t do Y” only to be told “...Giuliani, Y actually did happen!”
But why leave him uninformed of anything. As Trump’s lawyer he wouldn’t be allowed to testify it.
Devin Morton one of the best mayors ever!
Does anyone remember when sanity was a real thing?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Cirrus Tate Damm! You beat me to it.
Kind of. But ever since Fox debuted and 9/11 happened, there's kind of been this insanity-lite thing in the country. Like how the Dixie Chicks got death threats just because they didn't support war in the Middle East, or how paranoid Christian groups were out trying to convince gullible parents into believing that Pokemon was Satanic witchcraft and Spongebob was the homosexual Anti-Christ, or the Obama-era of chalkboard commentators trying to tie the Democratic Party, ACORN, and Solyndra to George Soros's Weather Underground, Saul Alinsky-inspired, Black Nationalist, *insert other conservative buzzword here* plot to destroy the world and it's traditional values. At least Stewart and Colbert were around back then to call a lot of it out.
Bruce Parker, Christian groups were trying to convince people that Dungeons and Dragons was satanic back in the late 70s, so that kind of thing isn't new, isn't since 9/11.
You aren't wrong; Christian groups have been trying to fearmonger for decades on a number of subjects, but it feels like they really got amplified after 9/11 and the rise of right wing media. Like, as 9/11 was still fresh in the minds of Americans, there were "Christians" in the media speculating on how the gays, pagans, and gypsies were the true cause of the attack and eventually how Katrina was God getting back at the growingly liberal U.S. Plus, "family group" leaders did often get good airspace from O'Reilly and co. (like with the "Spongebob is gay propaganda" thing).
This whole segment was very well crafted.
It's like Rudi is trying to make Trump look bad...
Lol he doesn't need ANY help in that regard but yeah, what an idiot
LazärheaD Naw man. Trump does that on his own. Rudy is the striped shirt that adds 10lbs to a 600lb man.
OR he's setting up appellate grounds for inadequate representation? Meanwhile, where the hell is the only REAL attorney here, Emmet Flood? Sobbing in a bathroom stall somewhere?
Great monologue
Good thing Trump has "the best people" working for him. Way to go Homer. You are so smart! S-M-R-T!
Sneaky Bunny 👍🏾🤣
is this the starting of the PURGE if crime is not illegal?
Yup
*Takes off glasses
A full Monologue, do my eyes deceive me?
If Trump was poor and not white he'd have been convicted and in prison by now.
Tyg Rahof Damn right.
Trump IS poor. Theres no proof that he has any money
Yeah, the poor guy had to pay $25 million back to those people HE RIPPED OFF.
There's no proof he's white. Orange if anything.
Is Trump's money actually Russian's?
Colbert/Stewart 2020, worlds #1 Flim Flam Facist 45 has to Go.
Effing brilliant!
I know it's sad USA is stuck in it, but come on this stuff is hilarious than any movie out there😁😍😂
Considering how they fucked over many other countries especially in the Middle East for DECADES, I may feel sorry for the people but politicians and such deserve much worse than this shitshow.
Im with you this is making politricks so interesting... even kids are tuned in
Ikr!
This ia gonna become a movie trust
Stupid Watergate, Stupid Watergate 2, Stupid Watergate - The Sequel, Stupid Watergate- The Prequel
It occurs to me that the female Fox anchor fired for acting in an inappropriate sexual manner didn't get to spend years and years having the network cover up and/or payoff her accusers--she got let go immediately. Not that I'm defending her actions, just that it strikes me that in even this awful situation there is a double standard.
To be fair to faux "news", they might have actually learned the lesson.
Or not, and then you are right..
Clearly its because she isnt as high ranking as Hanitty or Bill O'Riely, if she was, they might have
DEAD ABE :o) Yup, I'd vote for him! Abe would NEVER ask a senile lawyer to represent him.
Mardan P. That because Abe Lincoln was a good lawyer before he became a politician 🤓😊
No, it's because he's dead and can't ask
If its one thing we know about this administration, its if they say "he didn't pay them for hacking," you can just about bet he did.
karen henry no he didn't the fbi had trump monitored as a political candidate no way he did that.
What's asinine is that Rudy says "He didn't pay them for HACKING!!" which implies, by the way he says it, that Trump did pay them for something. It's one of those blinds that seasoned (if not skillful) liars go to: obscure the truth behind something that is also true, but misrepresented.
Trumps claims to be very smart, if not the smartest ever. Yet picks the dumbest people to work for him.
Keep waiting for Rod Serling to pop out of the shadows and welcome me to the Twilight Zone
Rob Ruiz Stupidity knows no limits, that's the brilliance of Trump.
He doesn't pick the smartest people, he picks people who are just like him.
When drumpf claim "I know the BEST peoples" he meant "I avoid the best peoples" he still know them since he successfully avoid them all.
It's easy to feel like the smartest person ever when you deliberately surround yourself with yes men even dumber than you.
Perhaps its the other way around? Smart people realized working for this buffoon isn't a good move... so only the dumb apply...
Anyone else's head hurt after all that? Jeez what a mess
Same
Axios .king And what news agencies do you respect sir?
Reminds me of the Rick James skit on the Chappelle Show. "Do you remember grinding your feet in Eddie's couch?" Rick James: "What am I gonna do, grind my feet on somebody's couch, like it's something to do? Come on I got a little more sense than that...Yeah I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch."
7:37 I love this reporter!! Why don't they all do this with these dirty politicians' double talk?? Make them answer, don't just move on!!
"The Stephen King of the horror story we now live in"... I'm sorry, but I've read every Stephen King book and I have to say, none were even close to this scary.
King is too good of a writer to come up with bullshit like this reality.
Erik S Clive barker had some parallels
He was cracking a joke about how Stephen King cranks out a lot of stuff...
Wow, that's a really sharp suit. Stephen should wear black more often.
ChesuMori his blue suits are always on point. But the black suits look better and are a pleasant visual change too. Looks good with the set
ChesuMori Midnight black but I do prefer the blue
ChesuMori too somber imo
Blue suits are nice, but there was something about this black suit and tie that kept me thinking, boy I wish I had the money to dress up like him.
It's the tie and shirt that give balance. I've always thought that Colbert is a swanky dresser. Whoever "styles" him really knows their onions.
At this moment I state that Stephen's "Okay it's a crime, but a little crime" will be the next step the Trump team takes. I guarantee it.
Giuliani's pause and then response at 12:59 when asked why he is bringing it up when no one has asked if the President was there is just precious. Then when he says it had been leaked but not public yet, well yes it's public, you're talking about it on TV. 😆😆😆😆😆
