Stephen Colbert and Trevor Noah go behind the yelling at last night's Democratic debate
But the bulk of Colbert’s monologue was spent roasting billionaire former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg. When Bloomberg — who infamously implemented a racist stop-and-frisk policy in New York — tried to explain how talking with black leaders had helped him understand how to better position himself, Colbert deadpanned, “Mr. Mayor, I have a feeling that a lot of black leaders want your position to be spread-eagle, up against a wall.
Noah didn’t pull any punches on Bloomberg either. He highlighted Elizabeth Warren’s continued demolition of the mayor, and also an incredibly awkward slip of the tongue when Bloomberg barely caught himselfthe Democratic politicians he donated money to.
At the end of his opening segment, Noah turned away from the debate to the next phase of the Democratic primary, noting that the basic math suggested that Sanders’ chances of clinching the nomination were practically assured as long as every moderate refused to drop out of the race. Noah then aired a faux Sanders campaign ad that “encouraged” Bloomberg, Klobuchar, and Pete Buttigieg to stay in the race. The only person to not receive a boost? Tom Steyer. “You should quit, and stop calling me,” cracked a Bernie impersonator. “It’s getting creepy!”
