It hasn’t even begun yet, and the Republican National Convention is already shaping up to be a literal circus. Adding to the mayhem is none other than late night host Stephen Colbert. He came dressed as the parody character he has created especially for the bizarre clown show that is the 2016 election season, and decided to roast the RNC’s standard-bearer, Donald Trump, as well as party leaders Reince Priebus and Paul Ryan.
So far he hasn’t missed a single opportunity to call out Republicans. Here is video of him saying that Ryan and Priebus “clearly checked their balls at the door” this election season:

Colbert was just getting started with that one, though. He also hijacked the stage, and roasted both Donald Trump and his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. Before getting kicked off the stage, Colbert dropped the mic on Trump, with the best zinger ever:
I know I’m not supposed to be up here, but let’s be honest, neither is Donald Trump.
The comedian also dubbed the Republican National Convention the “Hungry for Power Games,” a theme he has been running with during the presidential race.
Here is the must-see clip:
This is beyond awesome, and hopefully more people continue to disrupt this shameful - if hilarious - excuse for an American political convention.
