Stephen Colbert Rips Draft Dodger Trump for His Lies About Fighting for the LGBT Community: WATCH

Colbert Trump LGBT

Stephen Colbert had a lot to say about Donald Trump's cruel and unusual announcement yesterday that trans people would be banned from serving in the military in any capacity.

“I began my day today as I often begin my days, by checking Donald Trump's Twitter feed. Just to see how far the crazy has spread. And today, I really think he's off his meds, as he's gone from crazy to cruel, tweeting:

After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow……

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 26, 2017

….Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming…..

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 26, 2017

….victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 26, 2017

“Thank you?”, gasped Colbert. “F**k you.”

Colbert then pointed out Trump's hypocrisy, and his earlier tweet about fighting for the LGBT community.

“What the hell does he think the T  in LGBT stands for? Trump? Tomato? ‘I'd like an LGBT sandwich. Hold the mayonnaise, and no gay stuff.' The whole thing took the Trump supporter Caitlyn Jenner by surprise.

“Caitlyn, I don't know if I'm the first person to break this to you, but he's a liar.”

News flash, fool. He was lying. https://t.co/0SzGtaJPDT

Colbert also slammed Trump for making the announcement via Tweet (“That's like your wife divorcing you by cookie bouquet.”) and ripped Trump for being a draft dodger.
