‘Best They Got?’: Colbert Mocks Fox News’ Lame Kamala Attack
Now three days into Kamala Harris’ historic presidential campaign, Stephen Colbert began his Wednesday monologue by highlighting some reassuring “hard data” that proved things were looking up for Democrats.
“Yesterday, a Reuters-Ipsos poll had Vice President Kamala Harris leading former President Donald Trump 44 to 42,” said Colbert, to audience cheers. “That’s after a whole year of Biden trailing in the polls.”
Everything just “feels better,” Colbert said. He pointed out how energetic Harris’ rallies have felt compared to those of Trump vice presidential pick J.D. Vance, and highlighted the surge in voter registration after Harris’ campaign was first announced. The best sign of all for Colbert, however, was just how weak Fox News’ attacks on her have been so far.
