“The Nielsen ratings for he speech are in, and Trump’s talk-a-thon saw an 11 percent decrease from last year. Donald Trump is really dragging down broadcast television. I mean, if I were CBS I’d cancel him,” says Stephen Colbert in the Late Show clip above, winking directly at the camera.
“But you know linear television is doomed, and everyone’s ratings are going down, right? I’m sorry, what’s that? Our ratings were up seven percent?
