Stephen Colbert and the very funny Laura Benanti as First Third Wife Melania Trump took to the air last night to sort out fact from fiction in Michael Wolff’s Fire and Fury... at it was LOL funny.
For those who can’t playback, here’s some of the dialogue purloined from Newsweek
“Is anything in this book true?” Colbert asked the fake Trump, who ‘appeared live via satellite from the White House.’
“Absolutely not, Stephen. It is pure fiction. Fake book. Every single word is lie,” the first lady responded.
So, she didn’t cry on election night, as the book claims ? “Oh, no, no. That is true,” Melania said. “But they were tears of happiness—you know, like you do at your wedding, or every morning in the mirror.”
Benanti’s Trump parody went on to refute a few more claims Wolff’s book:
No, not everybody in the White House calls President Trump an idiot. “Not everybody...one of the grandchildren can’t even talk yet,” Trump quipped.
“The staff has all sorts of funny nicknames for us,” Trump said later. “They call me ‘Flight Risk.’”
Melania also explained that she doesn’t sleep with drumpf because there is no room in the bed with the cheeseburger there, so...she always make sure there is a cheeseburger.
She then thanks the cheeseburger for it’s service.
Funny stuff.
Colbert is really hitting it out of the park these dark days….
