President Donald Trump was quick to play the victim card because of the ‘anti-Trump Fake News Dossier’, but Stephen Colbert has a hilarious rebuttal.

Is Donald Trump a “victim”? The president himself likes to say he is. But Stephen Colbert does NOT agree!

Last night on The Late Show, Colbert spoke about the newest instance of Trump playing the victim as a part of the show’s opening monologue. Apparently there are reports that Hillary Clinton and the DNC paid for research into Trump’s connections with Russia. Colbert jokes that this is a big scandal for “our sitting not president.” Colbert adds that she may find herself beeing “unpeached”.

Still, Trump was quick to hop on Twitter to rack up sympathy from his supporters. Talking about the dossier, Trump straight up says, “The victim here is the president.” Colbert responds swiftly with a scathing jab about Trump’s alleged “pee-pee tape”, involving Russian hookers urinating on the bed: “No, no, no sir. Sir, the victim, as always, is that Russian mattress. You’re fine!”

Colbert gets a little further into the scandal, which basically goes as follows: the DNC paid for “dirt” on their opponents, they found it… and didn’t even use it. But some Trump advocates are saying that the DNC paying for this information means that Trump is totally innocent.
