Donald Trump's thoughts about Taylor Swift are due to be published in an upcoming book about The Apprentice, and – spoiler alert! – they're a bit weird.

"In the book, Trump says of Taylor Swift, 'I think she's liberal...she probably doesn't like Trump...I think she's very beautiful...It surprises me that a country star can be successful being liberal,'" sums up Stephen Colbert in the clip above from Tuesday night's Late Show.
