Trump said he 'won' the Mueller report, Stephen Colbert isn't so sure

Much like you, Stephen Colbert couldn't keep his eyes off that photo of a black hole which has been all over your newsfeeds recently.

But on Wednesday, the late night show host was more interested in another "dark destructive force from which you can never escape." Yes, he was referring to Donald Trump.

In particular, Colbert took issue with the president's comment that he had "won" on the Mueller report — even though he hasn't seen or read it.

"You don't win a report. Why is everything about winning for this guy?" Colbert replied, before launching into an impersonation of Trump.

"I woke up, I won breakfast. Then I destroyed the bathroom. Pure victory getting dressed."
