Stephen Colbert isn’t silent often, but he went quiet for nearly 10 seconds after playing a clip of President Donald Trump visiting California as the state battles some of the worst wildfires in its history.
A reporter asked Trump if seeing the destruction changed his opinion on climate change.
“No no, I have a strong opinion,” Trump replied. “I want great climate.”
That led to Colbert’s lengthy silence ... followed by a blistering response.
Check it out in the clip above.
