The “Late Show” host used yet another nickname for the former president and the audience loved it.

Colbert noted that the disastrous “Cyber Symposium” hosted by Trump acolyte and pillow seller Mike Lindell failed to produce any of the promised evidence of election hacking.
“The cyber results are in and Lindell’s own team has announced that they can’t prove his claims that China hacked the election.
