General Discussion

... Colbert has had Democratic politicians on his show many times. What's so different about Talarico? Could it be that Governor Hot Wheels is doing donuts in a desperate effort to sabotage the upcoming primaries? Democratic candidates have already been successful in previously blood-red areas of Texas, and by considerable margins, not frog hairs. So grotesquely corrupt conservatives like Abbott are going foo-foo in their tutus at the prospect of their ill-gotten political gains evaporating because even the semi-literate Republican base has had it up to here with getting corn-holed AGAIN by Republican shitweasels they thought were on their side. Their "side" is a bag of rancid resentments they haven't the wit to articulate, but boy, Howdy, they's pissed about sumpthin'.
So, if Trump sees ultra-red Texas circling the drain and turning blue, he'll remind us all of what he told us at the start of his second term: That HE and the DoJ decide what the law is, not the courts, and certainly not us. So he sics Mr. Suppository-Head and the FCC on Stephen for doing what talk show hosts have done for decades: interviewing political candidates.
It kinda reminds me of how frantic the Eye of Sauron looked when the One Ring of Power went for a swim in Mount Doom's lava. Trump's house of cards is collapsing, and the evil sonofabitch knows it. But he's sealing his own fate with the malicious retribution he's so famous for.
Too bad. So sad.
