Colbert: McCarthy Is Reminded of His Painful Concessions Every Time MTG Holds Up His ‘Shadowboxed Scrotum’

RUSH EXCERPT:

COLBERT: “Today, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy met with President Biden at the White House to discuss how to avoid a default on the U.S. debt. The global economies would crater if the United States even came close to defaulting on its debt and the only reason we are on the brink of this particular pickle is because of concessions made by McCarthy to the farthest right members of his party. See, to win over conservatives in his bid for the speakership, McCarthy agreed to raise the debt ceiling and that would come with spending cuts and that was the least painful concession he had to make, as he is reminded every time Marjorie Taylor Greene shows off his shadowboxed scrotum. Did a really good job with it … Beautifully done.”
