Stephen Colbert uses 'Bird Box: Part 2' to mock Trump's national address

Plenty of people took a pop at Trump's national address. Jimmy Kimmel had some ideas for how the President could have made things scarier, for instance, while Stormy Daniels offered an interesting Instagram live alternative.

Stephen Colbert, meanwhile, decided to parody the address through the medium of Bird Box.

"The point is the speech will be so insane that if you watch it, you will want to hurt yourself," she says. "Do you understand?!"
