Colbert to GOP: 'When Donald Trump Calls You Unethical, That's a Wake-Up Call'

............


"Republicans thought it would be better for Congress to investigate itself... That's like if the kids got together and said, 'Listen, Shana, you've been a great babysitter, but we took a secret vote to send you home. Leave the cigarettes. Bye-bye."

And the controversial move couldn't be further from Trump's proposal to "drain the swamp" and increase transparency in Washington. On Tuesday, the president-elect criticized the plan, causing the House Republicans to immediately pull it.

"Man!"
Colbert exclaimed. "When Donald Trump calls you out for being unethical, that's a wake-up call. That's not good. That's like if Keith Richards told you to moisturize."
