What?
It’s short for ‘Dad Bag’
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is having something akin to a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week, following his criticism of Khizr and Ghazala Khan, the Muslim parents of a fallen American soldier, which is earning him face-palms and wagging fingerseven from those officials within his own party.Last Week TonighthostJohn Oliver lit into the Donaldon Sundays show, and now Stephen Colbert is coming after him from a familiar angle that being his persona fromThe Colbert Reportthat he legally cant use.
On tonights installment ofThe Late Show, once again, Colbert lays down some comedy truth(iness) in The Word, er, The Werd, recapping how Trump managed to find himself mired in a controversy that, um, trumped accusations that he is cozying up to Vladimir Putin.
Colbert sneaks in a Melania dig while winking at Trumps implication that Ghazala Khan wasnt permitted to speak at the DNC: Yes, Trump knows that a good husband allows his wife to say something (… That Michelle Obama already said, read the rest of the punchline).
Responding to Trumps tweet that Khizr Khan doesnt even know him, Colbert quipped, I mean, how could you possibly judge a presidential candidate unless youve met them?
Well, Ive met Donald Trump, so Im on solid ground when I say: Donald, youre being a dad bag (the screen reads d-bag) which again, due to space weve had to shorten.
