Stephen Colbert Takes Aim at Trump’s Nordstrom Attack

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert once again takes aim at Trump last night and calls him out on attacking Nordstrom for dropping Ivanka’s clothing line.

Another episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, another night of Trump talk, but this time, it’s focused on Ivanka Trump and her clothing line at Nordstrom. Or lack thereof…

If you’ve been following the news this week then you know that Ivanka Trump is losing people who are carrying her clothing line. This latest loss was with Nordstrom and Donald Trump felt particularly angry over it. So of course, he took to twitter to reveal his thoughts on the issue.

Exhibit A:

And then of course, late night had a ton of stuff to work with. Check out Colbert’s clip here from last night:

First, he talks a little about Elizabeth Warren getting shut down but then quickly moves on to another woman in Donald’s life- his daughter.

Rightfully so, Colbert calls out Trump for using is platform as… ehem, PRESIDENT… to call out Nordstrom for attacking his daughter and discontinuing carrying her fashion line. How is this not a conflict of interest? Isn’t this illegal somehow? Weren’t they supposed to forgo their outer businesses when they moved into the White House to run our country? Does anyone even know anymore?

Trump needs to spend a little more time trying to get our country unified, and less time worrying about his and his daughters business deals. And also maybe less time tweeting about ridiculous things. Trump supporter or not- you have to agree with me here.

Either way, Colbert is seeing his highest ratings ever this month and it’s no doubt that segments like these are to blame. Thanks for something, Trump!
