Many political jokes from the get-go. stephen colbert has had a lovely year because of donald trump and that was evident from the beginning of his monologue, and all the way through the show. at one point he was doing a westwood segment and said like -- he was asking how -- how often do you question reality, hes like every day since november 8th. you saw it throughout the show. a lot of people were speaking about it. you even heard julia louis-dreyfus when she won talking about looking at impeac...

>> thank you very much. >> donald trump had presenter duties at 2004 emmys, award itself did elude him. never won despite eight nominations for "the apprentice" but trump clearly coveted the glitz and approval from the emmys, seeking it from a-list stars but now highest position in the land hes their detested enemy and punchline. >> at long last here is your ebmy. >> thank trump for making black people number one on the most oppressed list. hes the reason im probably up here. >> we did have a wh...

Great, michael jordan. i want to be like mike. mike said that democrats and republicans both buy his shoes so he was going to stay away from politics because it was in his best interests of his bottom line. so players naturally dont want to anger fans. sometimes if you dont speak out, thats what youre doing. >> charlie, typically tv personalities dont want to anger people either. if you think of former television personalities, lets talk about a guy named donald trump who back in 2007 was on an ...

Show also calling the president a racist. take a listen. >> this president i think has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has a deep seeded hatred for white people or the white culture. i dont know what it is. im not saying that he doesnt like white people, im saying he has a problem. this guy is, i believe, a racist. >> you know, charlie, there was no call from the president of the united states, the tweet from in trump was in 2012. there was no call from the white house ...

In their off hours is, you know, one step away from having a giant company town. >> you, there seems to me that part of the issue here is that now the white house is calling for this person to be fired and we should note the irony here. this is president obama, himself, when he was a big tv star calling the president racist. he tweeted is obama a total racist? also tweeted about the president obama being racist multiple times. right? so this is someone doing the exact same thing that theyre call...

Himself, when he was a big tv star calling the president racist. he tweeted is obama a total racist? also tweeted about the president obama being racist multiple times. right? so this is someone doing the exact same thing that theyre calling a fireable offense when he. was a tv star. >> that aside --? yeah, i dont remember josh earnest asking nbc to fire donald trump. >> thats right. >> for the birther stuff when he was doing "the apprentice." i dont recall that. maybe josh did, i dont remember,...

President was -- >> im talking about anybody else. >> let me get my point out. this person before he was president led this birther movement, which many people deemed as racist. no one from the obama administration or president obama called for him or said it was a fireable offense from the apprentice. so why the double standard? no one is saying jemele hill was right or wrong. were analyzing the situation. so why it double standard here? >> don, with all due respect, multiple radio shows about ...

Trying to figure out. >> what was from donald trump who was hosting "the apprentice" and representing abc at the time and no one from -- nbc at the time. >> tno one said it was a fireabe offense. >> how many people asked the white house that question, don? >> go back and look at the tape. was there any journalists -- >> all right then. >> all right, i got to go. >> it is inappropriate for the white house. >> it is inappropriate for an espn anchor. >> but it was okay for a reality show host to ca...

It is not fair for anybody to be characterizing the president that way. he gave a little bit of red meat with the office comment in charlottesville. m which he did in fairness walk back. i will say that someone from the white house podium is calling for a firing of a private employee is ridiculous. could you imagine if they say that he should have been fired after "the apprentice." that is not the place of the white house. >> sean: you understand this, dr. gina louden, you understand this. conse...

Trumps base saw this guy as a reality tv star on "the apprentice" talking about deals for over a decade. he has told us he makes the best deals. he has promised to drain the swamp. whats the chance, what he did today was brilliant or at least he will paint it as brilliant in the days to come? >> well, what we dont really know, is this the beginning of a sustained new strategy, which he moves away from the approach hes taken which he worked entirely with republican majorities and kept democrats a...
