Colbert, the CBS late night host, tore into Trump’s speech during his Tuesday show and criticized the address for being “filled with useful lies, and applauded by useless idiots.” At one point, he took aim at Democrats during the speech for silently holding up placards that read “false” and “lies.”

The late night host also poked fun at the choice of fuchsia clothing to signal opposition: "It’s the kind of bold protest that says, 'This is a test print and your magenta cartridge is working.'"
