EXCERPT:
COLBERT: "Why do you think he’s having such a hard time putting a target on her? Because he has attacked her in several different ways, he’s trying to burn her, but the fat is splashing back in his face every time, if you know what I mean."
WAGNR: "He smells like cooking oil. I think we have, like, in some ways believed Trump’s spin that he’s some master brander, right? The reality is that Joe Biden has been in politics literally forever, and Hillary Clinton has been a known entity in American politics forever. Both of them had sort of calcified personas as far as the American public was concerned, and Trump figured out Crooked Hillary, but then he also tried out Crooked Biden. He’s not actually that good at framing people. He just kind of picks something off the floor and throws it at the wall, and it happened to work with Hillary, but in large part, both Biden and Clinton were already known. He doesn’t have that advantage with Harris, and it’s been a miserable failure.”
