Donald Trump referred to himself as a king on social media this week, and on Thursday night, Stephen Colbert was quick to put him in his place. According to the CBS host, there’s only one true king in America — and it’s one who’s openly mocked Trump before.
In case you’ve been blissfully unaware, on Wednesday, Trump posted, “CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING!” to his Truth Social account. Shortly thereafter, the official White House social media accounts posted the quote along with an image of a fake Time magazine cover, showing Trump in a crown standing in front of New York.
