“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Tuesday clowned President Donald Trump over a new report that he’s been buying shoes for those in his inner circle.
“You know, there’s a word for a leader selecting clothing for his disciples,” Colbert pointed out. “It’s ‘cult.’”
The Wall Street Journal reported this week that Trump has been guessing people’s shoe sizes, then sending them shoes ― and those who receive the shoes feel obliged to wear them whether they fit or not.
One source cited by the Journal said: “It’s hysterical because everybody’s afraid not to wear them.”
“Hysterical,” Colbert repeated. “Just like that classic joke: Knock, knock. Who’s there? It’s the man who checks the shoes. I see you’re not wearing them. Get in the van.”
