#EndorseThis: Colbert On Trump’s Billion-Dollar Bust-Out

Congress may hold Trump and Barr in contempt, but Stephen Colbert is already there.

The Late Show host reviews the New York Times exposé of Trump’s 1985-94 tax returns, which showed over a billion dollars in business losses by the stable genius.
