Stephen Colbert thinks the GOP's Trumpcare seems a lot like 'Game of Thrones'

Stephen Colbert never disappoints, and on Wednesday's Late Show he took on the healthcare plan Republicans have suggested in lieu of Obamacare. He points out how long it took for the plan to even be released, comparing Republican lawmakers to George R.R. Martin and the infernal wait for the next book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series.

Russia also makes an appearance in Colbert's monologue. Unsurprising, because as Colbert points out, Russia is everywhere.

He also helps prepare us for future airport security changes in which the TSA will be giving "more invasive" pat downs. So many things to look forward to.
