The World Unites In Laughing At Trump In a memorable segment from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the comedian takes a jibe at President Trump's appearance at the United Nations. The video captures the comedic essence of Trump's speech, where his unexpected slip-ups turned into laughs among the audience. Colbert opens with a humorous backdrop, noting that Trump was scheduled to speak second but was delayed, prompting Ecuador's president to fill in. He quips, "Come on, man! You're from New York! You know what the traffic is like when the U.N. is here!" Colbert cleverly suggests that Trump could take the subway despite its notorious odor, further amplifying the comedic angle. One of the highlights was Trump's declaration of his administration's accomplishments, which he claimed were "more than almost any administration in the history of our country." This statement sparked laughter not just from the audience but also from Colbert, who remarked, "Don't worry, Mr. President. They're not laughing at you. They're laughing with each other at you." Colbert doesn't shy away from pointing out the irony of Trump's message about not interfering in other countries' affairs, especially when he continued to make jabs at nations like Iran and Venezuela. The host concludes the critique with a biting comment on Trump's rejection of globalism, emphasizing the oddity of rejecting unity at a gathering of nations designed to foster cooperation. This segment is not just a comedy routine but a reflection of the political climate in 2018, where humor often served as a coping mechanism for the audience contending with serious political narratives. The interplay between Colbert and Trump's statements highlights the comedic relief that late-night television provided during this turbulent period.
