“The Late Show” host on Wednesday took aim at the president for putting a positive spin on the fact that the United States, with 4% of the world’s population, leads the world in coronavirus cases. (It also leads in deaths.)
“When we have a lot of cases, I don’t look at that as a bad thing,” Trump said during a White House meeting with his Cabinet. “I look at that as in a certain respect as being a good thing because it means our testing is much better … I view it as a badge of honor. Really, it’s a badge of honor.”
Colbert had a different medal in mind:
“I believe that badge is called the Purple Heartless.”
