Colbert Calls Trump Lawyer ‘Dumb’ for Saying Insurrection Clause Can’t Apply for Trump Who Didn’t Swear to ‘Support’ Constitution

‘But I wear a suit professionally, so I feel qualified to say that is dumb’

EXCERPT:

COLBERT: “Here’s an example. For instance, Mitchell claims the insurrection clause of the Constitution applies only to people who took an oath to 'support the Constitution,' but presidents swear an oath to 'preserve, protect, and defend' the Constitution. The word 'support' does not appear. Now, I’m not a lawyer, but I wear a suit professionally, so I feel qualified to say that that is dumb. It’s like saying, 'Honey, I know I swore ’till death do us part,' but we never said whose death. And I personally think me banging my pilates instructor is what Queen Elizabeth would’ve wanted!'”
