Colbert is extremely funny, his Late Show just isn't.

Shredder and Krang combined had the biggest arsenal of any villains in all of the cartoons.

Very possible. I've actually been rather surprised he's never said a thing about The President Show, and not expecting this one to be much different. It's poking fun, but without necessarily being "mean" like the "big old meanie media," so I guess he doesn't mind that sort of attention.

True, if available.

Or maybe it will hit syndication on another channel someday, though by then I doubt it will be as enjoyable.

Yeah, and plus it would generate publicity for him to respond to it. I mean, if Ted Cruz got attention for telling everyone that Applejack was his favourite My Little Pony character, then there's no way Trump would be scared of the publicity that would come by him offering his thoughts on shows satirizing him

I do agree it unlikely but for a different reason...
I don't think they could our would with major racial backlash by communities and organizations like the NAACP and we know how sensitive they can be

Every president makes a fool of himself from time to time, not as much as Trump, Bush probably had my favorite moment with him trying to exit and trying to open a locked door to no avail

Isn't it ironic that Trump got people more into politics than ever before? When Obama became president back in 2008 I barely ever researched what a president did. Then again that was 10 years ago and I was a young 20 year old back then.

The text in that pic is actually not the one I used, this is from the movie:



Because this means you're using the wrong word over and over again but you believe that's what it means.

Somehow it achieved meme status.

2008 was 10 years ago, I was far less interested in politics than now.

No idea if it's worth the watch or not, just stumbled across it and only 3 min into it, but here's the premiere first episode posted for free by Showtime.
