Stephen Colbert taped his show before polls closed on Tuesday night so he couldn’t report who won. “But in this year’s GOP primaries, it’s safe to say, some crazy motherfucker,” he said in his Late Show monologue.
The host zeroed in on Missouri’s Republican Senate primary race, which as of his show’s airing had already been called for that state’s attorney general Eric Schmitt, beating out ex-Governor Eric Greitens, who appeared to be trailing in a distant third.
As Colbert explained, “Both of these guys are MAGA candidates,” and both were seeking Donald Trump’s endorsement up to the last minute.
