WATCH: Colbert Mocks Trump’s Spam Emails To European Parliamentarians

During his Wednesday night monologue, Stephen Colbert wondered if the presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump actually has as much money as he says he does, since his campaign has been struggling to fundraise enough to stay viable.

The Late Show host described the Trump’s campaign latest attempt at making some money – illegally emailing European parliamentarians asking for monetary contributions.
