“The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Monday aired a supercut of President Donald Trump repeatedly telling reporters he has a “very simple plan” when it comes to his war in Iran. Trump “said few words but so many times,” Colbert noted before playing a montage showing the president making roughly the same claim six times in seven minutes during remarks at the White House. According to the timestamp, Trump first used the phrase at 11:36 a.m. and repeated it again for the final time at 11:43 a.m. “Oh yes, he has such a simple plan,” Colbert joked. “In fact, the only thing simpler than the plan is the man who has it.” The late-night host also mocked Trump for sharing AI-generated memes praising himself, joking that the president was engaged in “reposturbating.” Colbert also took aim at a new golden statue of Trump unveiled at his Trump National Doral golf course in Miami, suggesting it should have “a couple of handles” added “to make it easier to pull down when we’re liberated by the Canadians.” Watch from the 2-minute point here: By entering your email and clicking Sign Up, you're agreeing to let us send you customized marketing messages about us and our advertising partners.
