COLBERT: “Well, he is the President of the United States, God bless him. And President Trump had an official call with Vladimir Putin today. I hear the call was tense, but let’s face it. That’s how performance reviews usually go. According to reports — according to reports, the two discussed 'the prospect of coordinating Russian and U.S. actions.' Oh, I think you’ve been coordinating for a while. According to the Kremlin, when discussing North Korea, the president of Russia called for restraint and an easing of tensions. You know things are bad when Putin is the voice of restraint. 'Eh, Donald maybe you could cool it with the tweets. It comes off as a little crazy.'”
