Yahoo Lifestyle Stephen Colbert Gives Biden 1 Towering Fact-Check About What Trump Really ‘Built’
Stephen Colbert praised President Joe Biden for “decades of tireless public service” after his speech closing day one of the Democratic National Convention on Monday.
But the “Late Show” host did have one fact-check for the president.
“Donald Trump promised infrastructure week, every week, for four years,” Biden said. “And he never built a damn thing.”
Colbert pushed back.
“That’s not entirely fair, sir,” Colbert said. “He did build all those little burger towers.”
Trump in 2019 treated Clemson University’s national championship-winning football team to a spread of fast food including hamburgers when they visited the White House.
Or, as Trump called it in a memorable typo, “hamberders.”
Trump at the time also shared an image of himself showing off the feast ― including those burger towers Colbert mentioned:
“I’m sure he designed them,” Colbert said.
