Stephen Colbert showed us Trump's IQ result and it's absolutely brutal

Spoiler alert: they're not his real IQ results.

Following Trump's Forbes interview in which he responded to the recent scandal of Rex Tillerson allegedly calling him a moron, "I think it's fake news, but if he did that, I guess we'll have to compare IQ tests. And I can tell you who is going to win."

You can imagine how much fun Colbert had with that.

He produced two sets of IQ test results, one for Tillerson and one for Trump. Tillerson scores 120, while Trump's is just a crudely done kid's drawing of the president in a truck.

Colbert then lays into the president's intelligence in earnest, citing reports which claim that the White House staff have to be careful with what they tell Trump for fear of his impulsiveness. He points to Trump's derision of "liddle Bob Corker", the senator who voiced the fear that Trump could be taking the country towards "World War III".

Finally The Late Show did a sketch parodying the doctored version of events Trump's staff allegedly feed him with "REAL NEWS TONIGHT," hosted by Jim Anchorton and Jill Newslady with special guest appearance from Pepper the puppy pundit.
