I’m still disappointed that Stephen Colbert took the DNC’s money and switched parties he was a genius at conservative commentary.

Stephen Colbert he was a conservative before the DNC gave him a bunch of money to switch parties.
colbert was just playing a character in the colbert report. what do you think of stalin?
