Stephen Colbert wrapped up his live coverage of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Thursday, breaking down Kamala Harris’ speech and the reaction to it.
But he also spared a moment to address her election opponent Donald Trump’s angry Truth Social post about Harris’ running mate Tim Walz, with the former president writing that Walz “was an ASSISTANT Coach, not a COACH” — to which Colbert had the perfect response.
“Oh my God,” says Colbert. “Of course, he was an assistant coach, you know what that means? Walz is only qualified to be some sort of…Vice President.”
For a more detailed breakdown of why the Trump campaign’s stance on Walz’s coaching days doesn’t make sense, Mashable’s Tim Marcin has you covered.
