EXCERPT:
COLBERT: “Now, I’m no U.S. treasury expert, but please, do it! Make the coin and make it as big as a manhole cover! Fill it with chocolate, and let the Democrats win it in a high-stakes game of dreidel! All right, come on. Here’s how operation mega-coin would work: the president could order the treasury secretary to mint a $1 trillion coin, then deposit it with the federal reserve. Then, just like that, the government would have an additional $1 trillion to pay off its obligation. I think there’s something so fitting about Biden fixing this by just pulling a coin out of thin air: “Hey, ’Merica. C’mere, kiddo. Come see your Uncle Joe. What you got there behind your ear? Oh, look, it’s a trillion dollars. There you go! Buy yourself something nice!””
