Colbert on Passing of Infra Bill: The Last Time that Many Republicans Crossed the Aisle Was to Steal Pelosi’s Podium

EXCERPT:

COLBERT: “I don't know if you saw this, something incredible happened in the U.S. Senate because they passed a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill. To put that into perspective: If you took 1.2 trillion $1 bills and laid them end to end, they’d make better roads than what we’re driving on now. Which why we need the bill. Now, something... And this wasn’t a 50-50 party line split. The number of senators who voted for the bill was 69 … Nice! That bipartisanship is still possible. In fact, 19 Republican Senators joined every Democrat in favor. The last time that many Republicans crossed the aisle in Congress, it was to steal Nancy Pelosi’s podium.”
