Stephen Colbert's rant about the new Trump tell-all book is as hilarious as you'd think
Watch Next

The publication of some juicy excerpts from Michael Wolff's tell-all book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House about the administration of President Donald Trump is such a gift to Stephen Colbert.

The Late Show host laid into the president in his opening monologue, with some hilarious thoughts on former advisor Steve Bannon ("expired hamburger meat that wished to be a real boy"), and the revelation that Trump often goes to bed with a cheeseburger (OK, this one is kind of gross).

All this, and the full book hasn't even come out yet. Get your popcorn ready, kids.
