It&#8217;s all the same. And if you did not know that Joe Biden was getting close to 270, Donald Trump just provided all the proof you will ever need.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Though Colbert can usually find a frivolous, biting way through Trump&#8217;s chaotic bullshit, the late show host and longtime commentator on the president&#8217;s antics found he needed a moment to deliver this emotional monologue.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So we all knew he would do this,&#8221; he said, taking a pause to gather himself. &#8220;What I didn&#8217;t know is that it would hurt so much. I didn&#8217;t expect this to break my heart. For him to cast a dark shadow on our most sacred right from the briefing room in the White House \u2014 <em>our house<\/em>, not his \u2014 that is devastating.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is the President of the United States,&#8221; he added. &#8220;That office means something, and that office should have some shred of decency.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Colbert took the opportunity to issue a call to action, directly pleading with Republicans (&#8220;<em>all of them&#8221;) <\/em>to speak up im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely against Trump, &#8220;because for evil to succeed all that is necessary is for good men to do nothing.&#8221; And like, right now, not tomorrow, not next week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You only survived this up till now because a lot of voters didn&#8217;t want to believe everything that was obvious to so many people: that Donald Trump is a fascist.\u00a0And when it comes to democracy versus fascism, I&#8217;m sorry, there are not fine people on both sides. So you need to choose: Donald Trump or the American people. This is the time to get off the Trump train, because he told you where the train is going and it&#8217;s not a passenger train and he&#8217;ll load you on it someday too.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"viral-next-up\">\n<div class=\"viral-video-preview story0\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Uploads%252fstory%252fthumbnail%252f121285%252f99d5d98f a10d 466d bf44 e0d3de3175fc.png%252f410x230  filters%253aquality%252880%2529.png?signature=trezy go fcfkch2cbbjmfdn8qq=&amp;source=https%3a%2f%2fblueprint api production.s3.amazonaws\" class=\"viral-next-image\" data-skip-microcontent=\"true\" data-fragment=\"m!8060\" src=\"https:\/\/mondrian.mashable.com\/uploads%252Fstory%252Fthumbnail%252F121285%252F99d5d98f-a10d-466d-bf44-e0d3de3175fc.png%252Foriginal.png?signature=sIq8UIifBNizdi0uvA__LeUA6Zg=&amp;source=https%3A%2F%2Fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com\" data-micro=\"1\">Trump falsely declares Pennsylvania victory, so Seth Meyers declares himself ruler of Westeros<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"viral-video-preview story1\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Uploads%252fstory%252fthumbnail%252f121256%252fd9f962d6 6d30 400e b673 58dc7fb3d3c9.png%252f410x230  filters%253aquality%252880%2529.png?signature=4roxor3ybdrqmnsrvevparklduw=&amp;source=https%3a%2f%2fblueprint api production.s3.amazonaws\" class=\"viral-next-image\" data-skip-microcontent=\"true\" data-fragment=\"m!aa3d\" src=\"https:\/\/mondrian.mashable.com\/uploads%252Fstory%252Fthumbnail%252F121256%252Fd9f962d6-6d30-400e-b673-58dc7fb3d3c9.png%252Foriginal.png?signature=izrQd_vf62SaVumioebxVzmkwrY=&amp;source=https%3A%2F%2Fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com\" data-micro=\"1\">Watch politicians like Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz read mean tweets about themselves<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"viral-video-preview story2\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Uploads%252fstory%252fthumbnail%252f121242%252f25880452 dca4 4eee ae52 fd8b050d6b14.png%252f410x230  filters%253aquality%252880%2529.png?signature=ntq2tzbenh wvsv7dyl0ngf7etc=&amp;source=https%3a%2f%2fblueprint api production.s3.amazonaws\" class=\"viral-next-image\" data-skip-microcontent=\"true\" data-fragment=\"m!cc2f\" src=\"https:\/\/mondrian.mashable.com\/uploads%252Fstory%252Fthumbnail%252F121242%252F25880452-dca4-4eee-ae52-fd8b050d6b14.png%252Foriginal.png?signature=MbcHCHQHfwSE4mRstNu_0ZYd0Lk=&amp;source=https%3A%2F%2Fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com\" data-micro=\"1\">You deserve this delightful &#8216;LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special&#8217; trailer<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"viral-video-preview story3\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Uploads%252fstory%252fthumbnail%252f121227%252f98566962 bdde 4f58 a460 632958d94d2d.png%252f410x230  filters%253aquality%252880%2529.png?signature=ut5epfpwf1u0cibagdhkmna4yvm=&amp;source=https%3a%2f%2fblueprint api production.s3.amazonaws\" class=\"viral-next-image\" data-skip-microcontent=\"true\" data-fragment=\"m!8a32\" src=\"https:\/\/mondrian.mashable.com\/uploads%252Fstory%252Fthumbnail%252F121227%252F98566962-bdde-4f58-a460-632958d94d2d.png%252Foriginal.png?signature=Eij4mQwLVygDcAyfHvG_78OJXDQ=&amp;source=https%3A%2F%2Fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com\" data-micro=\"1\">Seth Meyers explains why Republicans are to blame for the Midwest&#8217;s delayed election results<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p><span class=\"author_name\">By Shannon Connellan<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General <\/a><\/span>category.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/video\/stephen-colbert-trump-republicans-2020-election\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Watch Stephen Colbert&#8217;s furious monologue after Trump&#8217;s &#8216;desperate attack&#8217; on democracy&#8221; Donald Trump&#8217;s outrageous, sad, and dangerous statements made in the White House briefing room on Thursday night have left us in some kind of obese turtle shellshock.
