‘You’re In A Cult!’: Colbert Urges Trump Fans To Get Out And ‘Take Off The Stupid Hat’
“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Monday delivered a blunt warning to some of Donald Trump’s biggest supporters after the former president spoke to a crowd outdoors in Las Vegas in 100-degree heat.
Six people were taken to a hospital, and some two dozen others were treated at the scene for heat-related issues as Trump delivered a lengthy and rambling speech in which he waxed about issues such as whether it’s better to be killed by a shark or electrocution.
“Here’s the deal,” Colbert said. “If you’re willing to stand out in the desert listening to some maniac ramble until your skull bursts open like a pan of Jiffy Pop, you’re in a cult!”
That, he said, or Coachella.
“Either way, get out of there,” he urged. “And take off the stupid hat.”
