Stephen Colbert Torches Donald Trump's Plan For 'Race War-Themed Reality Show'

"Are you kidding me?"

President Donald Trump’s onetime suggestion to set black and white contestants against each other for a series of “The Apprentice ” angered Stephen Colbert  on Monday night.

“Are you kidding me?” asked the host of “The Late Show,” after he’d picked apart Trump’s recent attacks  on four congresswomen of color.

Trump told radio host Howard Stern in 2005 that the white team would probably all be blondes. “He was planning a race war-themed reality show and somehow made it more offensive?” asked Colbert.
