Colbert, once dazzling as a political satirist, is now a cringing tool of the elite—like all the late-night “comic” hosts, whose uniformly unfunny material might as well be written by the CIA’s Comedy Desk.
Note how Colbert springs to the defense of Dr. Fauci, and, as Dore points out, tries to cut Stewart off at the knees with an awkward parry tacitly accusing him of being a Republican.
