During an event celebrating the 20th anniversary of Slate’s Political Gabfest, the host of “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” said it was a predictable answer.
When asked why, he explained that if he were in control of Trump, he would resign.
“No scandal, no confession. Just show up and say: ‘It was great. I’m the greatest of all time. I’m going out on top. It can be a glorious ending.’ Just end it,” he revealed.
“I have a scary follow-up question: does he take over my body for 24 hours?” he challenged.
John Dickerson, co-host of Political Gabfest, assumed that Stephen Colbert would choose Trump, since the U.S. president gave the host no respite throughout 2025.
Colbert has been facing attacks from the Republican on social media since he announced in July that the show would end in 2026.
“I absolutely love that Colbert was fired,” Trump posted after the news of the show’s cancellation.
