If you ever watched The Colbert Report back in the day, he played a version of himself as an extreme conservative. It was parody, but plenty on the right who only half paid attention though that he was being genuine. Trump is a moron and would totally have been one of them and wanted to hire the guy who said ridiculous shit on television.
Colbert’s current late show is clearly critical of trump.
The Colbert Report was satirically mocking the right wing by pretending to agree with them. Some of the less smart republicans didn’t get the jokes and thought he was on their side. I’d honestly be very unsuprised if trump fell into the camp of conservatives that thought colbert used to be a hard core republican.
wonders what reality you’re living in where the president wasn’t boasting about Colbert’s late night show just in this last month getting cancelled

Yes I fully agree with this and also wish that this alternate reality was manifest, thank you for co-aligning on the matter-at-hand
