[@charliepekin8833]

Man... I love Stephen and hate Trump, but that fucking audience and their boos... Saramucci was willing to come on the show and the audience just boos him every chance they get. Honestly really disappointing.

[@gabzz72]

yes it was hard for the Mooch, but hey he deserved it. One Colbert interview n he's back in Americans good graces, boos from the audience was a small price to pay.

[@jeffpence6163]

Charlie Pekin Liberals just living in their echo chamber. This happened in previous talk shows during the election when conservatives came on. For being so tolerant, liberals sure are rude as fuck and quick to espouse their biased disapproval of those who share differing opinions. It's not like half of America voted for Trump or anything like that. Let's just act like 98% of the general public is against 2% of conservatives and boo them whenever they appear on a show. Then when they do appear and are open to questioning and debate, let's fuckin rail on him/her over the most innocuous things without any room for substantive response bcuz we interrupt every premise he/she tries to make.

[@Sternertime]

yeah but what do you expect.

[@beatz04]

Great they were booing. What do you expect common sense wise ? That although until a few weeks ago they were booing everytime the name the Mooch was mentioned (rightfully so) now they suddenly are supposed to cheer for him ? I think Stephen has no spine anymore for inviting Scaramucci at all in the first place - some people shouldn't be given the chance to turn themselves into "likeable" by an easy PR stunt like this.

[@maximusp210]

i ALSO HATE TRUMP...but that audience was LAME..what was up their ass???

[@gaia8797]

can we just take a moment and appreciate the fact that the band played Bohemian Rapsody to welcome the Mooch hahaha

[@hondaaccordions8993]

Easy come easy go

[@erlindaalba1682]

Scaramooch, scaramooch, scaramooch, can you do the fandango 👌

[@BeautyForAshesOilOfJoy]

"Did he order his spine from Amazon prime?" ....Classic

[@tylerthurston7918]

AshleyBeau tyler

[@boundbythecurve]

"Did he order his spine on Amazon Prime" best damn line ever.

[@ashleylogin1120]

Rather have Mooch as President over Trump. Any. Day. Of. The. Week.

[@ffampire]

Ashley Login I would rather have anyone as President than DJT. #Missing44

[@travelator3035]

So if Trump actually succeeds during his presidency, you still would rather have someone else as president?

[@travelator3035]

+ W B even corrupt criminals?

[@xoxosahar]

Omg they played Bohemian Rhapsody when he walked out. SCARAMOOCH SCARAMOOCH 😂 Amazing work 10/10

[@nikobatallones]

And "Backstabbers" before he introduced the Mooch.

[@lisadee4490]

Sahar H hehehee

[@thewholetruth4192]

He did MORE than the Fandango.

[@321ajb1]

Om Wind lmao

[@llorttaf]

I applaud the Mooch for having the balls to go on knowing they'd boo him every 10 seconds.

[@brl2507]

Scaramucci did the Fandango straight out of the White House.

[@Syclone0044]

Br L The Mooch screwed the Pooch!

[@openaardvark419]

He did so to the sound of thunderbolts and lightning. It was very, very, frightening to me.

[@CJonesApple]

Kudos to The Mooch. He went in there fully knowing and gave a proper interview, and in turn was given one by Colbert.

[@ffampire]

CJonesApple I agree, have to admit he was a good sport, and mildly entertaining. Most clowns are though, as long as they aren't the terrifying type. Trump on the other hand is both.

[@chancekull]

CJonesApple Hardly, he was interrupted by Stephen hundreds of times, and berated by the audiences boo's during the entire 'interview'.

[@fetB]

well, looks like he thought he could bullshit his way out of it to come out on top.

[@moloney55]

They booed the Trump is compassionate line but other than that they were saying "Mooch"

[@Avohaj]

Stephen interrupted because Scaramucci knows to talk as a politician and was talking himself out of the questions. It might appear rude, but it really is just counter to political rhetoric. I dislike the booing as well, but I'm sure he was very well aware that it would happen and at least what was in the clip (there were obviously cuts) it was like 2 booings and one being interrupted by Stephen. It's stupid but it wasn't bad.

[@HexIsme]

I don't like Scaramucci but I respect the balls it takes to get up in front of a bunch of people who clearly hate you/what you stand for, look them in the face, and try to communicate. It was awkward, the crowd was a little too rude to him, and there was that weird cut on the applause when he said he'd like Bannon out of office--something EVERYONE agrees with. As for Scaramuccis non-answers....they're as good as answers, really. Very telling.

[@CBuehler82]

Hex Isme you hit the nail on the head perfectly

[@MrElionor]

If he had any real balls he would answer Stephen's questions instead of that "I can't comment on that" bullshit that's what the non answers are telling

[@feelmypuddle4963]

MrElionor He likely wants a career still. So those were the answers he could afford to give.

[@MrElionor]

FeelMyPuddle​ My point still stands

[@feelmypuddle4963]

Double Dong Its not a news show it's a comedy show.. He was never going to get an inside look

[@KK-sv1pr]

I thought it was gonna be an actor pretending to be the scaramucci

[@fernandoqueirozpopovic7024]

Everyone was expecting that but no he really went all in and got the bastard on the show

[@dexter1673138]

A hands down , win for the Mooch. " Talked shit for 3 months, Im still here" Actually really fucking moving. I cant believe Im saying this

[@LoveDuah]

He really came

[@NewMessage]

I thought he said he couldn't reach?

[@theozlander4629]

EvelynLove Fosu-Duah I did not expect him to I tell ya

[@unitedjt345]

Hes got nothing to lose lol but yeh it was pretty damn cool of him to agree to come on the show

[@johnmyers4555]

I'm more surprised Colbert had him on than I am that he came. Of course The Mooch came, he can't become a celebrity if he doesn't get his face on TV while we all still know him. And I guess I can't fault Colbert for seeking the ratings bump, but he's not making real life feel any less like a reality tv show.

[@taunteratwill1787]

Cash is King Let it go, we don't know who you are but now we know what you are loser. rofl

[@adilpickles]

This interview is better than any interview I've seen on a major news network. This is a great display of a simple, respectable discussion between two men with opposing views. Hopefully Stephen can get more guests like him, so we can understand more about what is going on in the White House.

[@michalperach984]

Adil I highly recommend Bill Maher's show. The only "liberal" show to have republican guests and some interesting discussions.

[@Talasas]

Stephen really lacked the level of decorum that Scaramucci had in this interview and I can't believe I'm saying that. He's normally much better with guests but here he seemed it hard to contain himself, it was a little painful to watch for me.

[@seapdx3189]

Talasas Agreed. Colbert was always so calm and collected on his old show but maybe it's because he was always in character. He was not so ready to pounce and interrupt like he sometimes is now. Think back to how he interviewed Bill Maher. Honestly, I think Stephen's ego has gotten a little inflated.

[@sdgdhpmbp]

+Michal Perach Eeehhh, I'm not so sure. I have my reservations for the host Bill Maher (the recent n-word incident only 1 reason why) but also the discussions are not that different from some chaos you see in MSM, with the difference being an audience cheering or booing and takes away from the discussion. Stephen's audience is a little better but if you must invite a crowd to debate, they cannot be an expressive type looking for entertainment. That said, I'm not badmouthing either audience, that's how they want to be _entertained_ plus what the studio wants from them. When one wants to look for proper discussions, you're more likely to find them in KZbin comments like here instead of within the actual entertainment.

[@austinthomas2690]

Adil it would've been better if Stephen didn't interrupt him at almost every chance he could. He came off like an asshole to me in this video

[@TheBrothersBlue]

This is one of the hardest hitting interviews I've seen out of Colbert. Bravo.

[@cadenza23]

Man I wish this interview had been tomorrow instead of yesterday. I'd have loved to hear Scaramucci try to defend the shit that came out of President Trump's mouth today.

[@tylerthurston7918]

tyler man sli

[@Happiness1876]

U confused me

[@yrguitar1]

I think scaramucci actually handled himself pretty well and I think we should respect that he actually came on this show.

[@brianr6651]

Meh on the first point, and absolutely no on the second. Hes a half rate spokesman. I resptect Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney for joining Democrats denouncing Jan. 6. I respect Sec. Buttigieg for going on Fox CONSTANTLY confronting conservative media intelligently and politely. I don't respect this goon who had a job for a week.

[@aidanrogers4438]

I get a very big Wolf of Wall Street vibe off him.

[@lune78]

That's because that's exactly what he is.

[@TheSonicTooth]

And people love that film. It's sickening.

[@aidanrogers4438]

Theblue Toother Erm I love it. It's a Martin Scorsese/Leonardo DiCaprio film. What's not to love?

[@Nikhilinho]

That's spot on, for weeks I've been trying to think of who that guy reminds me of. That guy is Jordan Belfort

[@user-ws1iz5fm9z]

Batman Jr. I get the vibe that you're mucci jr

[@chrism8534]

A Roman soldier walks into a bar. He holds up two fingers and says," Five beers please."

Well done, that took me a couple of seconds.

[@simransangha8668]

DarthCruciare87 it took me 3 or 4 years. Literally, I saw it so many times but never got it

[@jasiriboards]

Took me a minute

[@killa78541]

Hardest questions ive seen any late show host ask in a while. I Respect this man

[@shidden3933]

Jon Baptiste is a low key genious. He did the fucking fandango. Amazing

[@MichaelAronson]

Not enough people pay attention to the musical choices Jon throws in. His musical jokes are often extremely subtle.

[@shidden3933]

I was already hoping The Mooch would go along and start doing his GALILEO GALILEO

[@judioregan4210]

Michael 마익흘 Aronson - I think I also heard a couple of bars of Mac the Knife as well. Brilliant stuff!

[@ObeyAmmalol]

Pedro tbh

[@Roks559]

If that's the bar for being a genius...

[@mattschumacher4581]

If Scaramucci wants to go to the movies, will he buy the tickets at the door? Or will he do the Fandango?

[@ZadnoleyaEdits]

Luke Shoewalker HA

[@dasoulfoodbuffet]

beat me to it. damn you.

[@3star2nr]

Luke Shoewalker bob Mueller indicting very very frightening

[@DeltaEcho7792]

He will only do the Fandango to see Mama Mia.

[@rmtrainer7]

Oh this is such a quality dad joke. 😂

[@pacerina5364]

"Two days! Does he order his spine on Amazon Prime?!" Stephen, I love you. Your intellect is superb, you are as brilliant as it gets. Thank goodness you are on TV in these dark times.

[@FRALLE2]

Honestly, Scaramucci's jokes with the kill list, and the 'boos' being 'moos' was freaking hilarious

[@canadianpsycho1867]

Thanks for having him on

[@theozlander4629]

Holy shit the Mooch has a lot more dignity and tolerance than I expected even took the booing like a man damn lol

[@mollyyeah]

AND STEVE BANNON IS OUT. LMAO.

[@YONCE8701]

"DOES HE ORDER HIS SPINE ON AMAZON PRIME?" I LOVE THIS MAN!!!!!!! REALEST DUDE ON TV!

[@Borderlines]

Wtf?! This guy is actually tolerable, dare I say entertaining to watch?! Color me surprised

[@rjcripe]

Lp Alcantara He was always entertaining to watch.

[@mwlin1]

well, all snake oil salesmen--my first impression of the guy--can be persuasive sometimes

[@alexnore1528]

It seems the Mooch can act as well

[@lynxtar1]

Yeah, he is pretty funny. There was no reason for him to be boo'd so much.

[@unvergebeneid]

He's a delightful scumbag.

[@Nick-pi9sh]

He doesn't seem like the worst person in the world... I guess working for trump brings out the worst of people.

[@kesa1986]

Dank Memer yea

[@k.-flynn]

[@peepeestrangler1826]

Naturally, people are more comfortable when they are incapable of handling real world issues and are relieved of their post as a result.

[@EM-cs7jw]

I think some of Stephen’s most hilarious monologues were from while Scaramucci was in the White House. Mad respect to him for coming onto the show, he’s got balls lol. He’s also hilarious and came off respectable in this interview

[@michaelanderson5747]

Stephen did a great job of keeping control at all times, didn't let Mooch run away with it and kept the audience in line as well. Class interview.

[@apurvanataraj5547]

5:34, thought that would be a line reserved for Paul Ryan.

[@TheRealBeatMaster]

The Mooch would make a great joker, look at that smile

[@dr.christopherdiaz4473]

He is too easy to manipulate...call him the mooch and he'll say anything.

[@Juzgames]

colbert might be harsh but for a good reason.... terrorist attacks are called out so fast and trump will tweet about it asap but when it comes to white supremacist there seems to be a delay...double standards...u cant deny the facts.

[@yellowplaidqueen]

5:34 "Does he order his spine on Amazon Prime?" My jaw was on the floor. What a savage.

[@snowdjagha]

Oh my fucking god! JUST LISTEN TO THAT INTRO! LOL

[@KingFudge]

I am legitimately surprised at the amount of hate Steven got in this interview. I thought it went really well for both of them; Steven hit hard, and Scaramucci responded well. Granted, I think the responses were kind of weak, which Steven rightfully pressed him on, but I don't think it went badly at all. Hats off to both parties here.

[@OcT083r]

I'm not a fan of this admin, but I have to acknowledge he was brave agreeing to this interview.

[@drjones6584]

Come on, Colbert. I love your show, but this was just rude. He came on the show and was trying to be friendly. He even poked fun at himself. Let him finish a sentence.

[@baldwintheleper]

Ironically, the Mooch doesn't mind because Colbert actually caused a lot of people to sympathise with him through this interview. Just check out the comments saying either the exact thing you said, or calling Scaramucci an honest man. Its just another way of demonizing Trump and it is working wonders, haha!

[@DrCaesarMD]

That's how you got to be sometimes when you're a messenger to the nation. You have to be tough on the people who deserve a little rough treatment - Anyone defending Trumps administration SHOULD have to jump through hoops.

[@morchedrid]

Why? That says more about you than anyone else. respect should always come from mutual sides in a discussion. any other way, you're either instigating or making yourself look bad.

[@shoaib_azam]

Risheen Mukherjee 😂, But by making himself the (sort of) bad guy.

[@seapdx3189]

Dr Jones totally agree. It's disappointing. He's sometimes combative like he never was on the Colbert Report. Maybe it's because he was always in character then. I don't know.

[@charlesphillips3951]

He would be a perfect Joker in a new Batman movie.

[@thespasticmindofastonedguy3266]

Instead he ended up being a joke in the Merca Movie.

[@hollyholmfan8366]

he even has the smile for it lol

[@logicalfallacy234]

Holy shit, so I'm not the only one who saw that. The smile he has at 0:37 from the side looks totally Joker-ish.

[@logicalfallacy234]

@Tyrell Suraiya The Batman standalone film is going through some major changes right now, since Matt Reeves is now writing and directing it, so Deathstroke probably won't be the main villain, like he was in Ben Affleck's version of the film. He'd have been cool to see though, and maybe Reeves does keep him as the main villain.

[@omegaalby]

Two Face would fit better.

[@ShhhutUp]

The soundtrack for the entrance of the Mooch 😂😂

[@benjaminmendezz]

😂😂😂

[@mikehuntsmells4309]

Big props to him for going on the show

[@George2001k]

Grats to him for showing up and defending his words. Sad that he is trying to protect someone who isn't worth fighting for....

[@thebacons5943]

I'm liberal but I have to say... The Mooch nailed this one. I can't say I like him as a person, he clearly sold out for Trump, but Mooch did a good job and seemed like an ok guy. He seems like a guy who saw a chance to get in on the action so he gave it a shot and got burned. He seems like a fun guy who is probably self centered and a jerk but still fun. Maybe he's just a good actor here, but if so he was still effective

[@gabzz72]

He did good in the interview, but I feel so manipulated... he's probably more popular/better liked now than he was months ago, but nothing has really changed, has it? He's still in the Trump camp. N its not fair to win brownie points just for saying Nazi's are bad- that shit goes without saying.

[@j.denino5732]

He's like a used car salesman.

[@BishtrainerTai16]

I bet you think Kasich is a swell guy too. Easily fooled.

[@tracer740]

Wrong, BitchtrainerTai! Kasich will be a formidable candidate if he pursues next election! ... He also is quite an impressive statesman and leader!

[@fallon12]

Are you serious - Kasich? What planet are you from. I'm from Ohio and we'd love to send him into space!

[@johngreene8988]

Scaramucci had the balls to go on the Late Show and basically walk into a battleground. Let him fucking speak.

[@Nachtmusiks]

All these people complaining about Stephen interrupting Anthony without know that he's doing it so Anthony don't BS through his questions. I mean what he did is not even half as bad as Bill O'Reilly did to Jon Stewart.

[@jarin4847]

holy shit how did they get him to come on the show

[@thomasdevon8209]

I almost just DIED..... "does he order his spine on Amazon Prime"? LMMFAO!!!

I was wondering why whenever I hear Scaramucci I have an urgency to say scaramucci scaramucci. Finally understood that it is from Bohemian Rhapsody.

[@amandab3946]

[@RyAn-xi2zg]

[@DungeonStudio]

I just don't get how he got the job? Seems like a decent enough guy, but just doesn't 'fit' with anything political. And surprised there's no gag order placed on him from doing talk shows and all? In one way it's good to see that kind of transparency, but at this stage of the game'....? I am truly baffled Captain.

[@hadiza1]

LOL

[@seanmcdonald1111]

It's because he's buddies with trump. trump "drained the swamp" only to put all his friends and family those positions. This is just more typical trump hipocracy.

[@nejx8711]

Omg, they played the "Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the fandango" part from Queens Bohemian Rhapsody when he entered 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ENigma-um8zw]

Lol! I absolutely loved when you could tell The Mooch was diggin' the crowd cheering for him to put it in the "Mooch" Zone! This interview made me respect him more than I did previously. Thanks Stephen, best of luck Mooch! :D

[@CarolynsRVLife]

Wow, way to go colbert!!

[@alexnore1528]

And here I thought this guy would stop idolizing Trump and spouting bs after how he was treated, smh no one seems to have dignity in the Trump Administration.

[@oriondevil79]

actually if he did that he would be a real piece of shit - when you say something, you stand by it. I think he did well... plus he knows it wasnt trump who fired him. Trump is a balloon of hot air, is not even (THE) president and he knows that, thats why he doesnt hold grudges... hey its just business.

[@nateindenver534]

I gotta give credit where it's due - The Mooch is definitely a man with a sack and a spine - it must have been difficult to take that interview and do it with good humor. That's some bravery! (I'm sure the billions in the bank helps)

[@prime815qtm]

I was waiting for something like this. I respect Colbert for doing this

[@JackSparrow-gn9be]

The "Mooch" should be cast in a Goodfellas sequel.

[@xvx4848]

"Does he order his spine on Amazon prime?" Hahahaha!!!!

[@patrickmccune6963]

This was one of the better interviews Colbert has done in months. I watch most nights and record the nights I cant. It was good to see him keep mooch on the back foot, good to see mooch can laugh at himself too.

[@ebonyessence2838]

Fulfilling prophecy...

[@MrKhaosKid]

3 minutes in... He literally said "it's the president himself, and I'm not gonna point fingers" and colbert didn't listen at all. How did he get applause from that miscommunication???

[@jayisfresh1990]

He should've asked if Trump really threw that spiral...

[@vera_nika2]

awesome interview

[@stephanie_bee]

STEPHEN COLBERT YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! You always know exactly what to say.

[@flynjack4304]

The audience should've been more respecting , after all he came to this show knowing that's he's been hated.

[@greg3284]

Best line from SNL: "“The Mooch has no regrets, baby,” he added of himself. “All I did was sell my company, miss the birth of my child and ruin my entire reputation, all to be king of idiot mountain for 11 days.” True words.

[@janetdonald9801]

His example of Trump being a compassionate person is Trump feeling sorry for himself giving up his life style...WTF?

[@gingerp6631]

Scaramucchi handled this well given the hostility he faced from the audience. He seems much more real to me than anyone I have seen in the Trump administration.

[@AnnBiscuit]

The Moooch!

I was way too excited for this than I should've.

[@msfair3625]

Does he order his spine on Amazon Prime? Bars.

[@corcon6976]

Colbert critics going on like Scaramucci all victimized by interruptions. Did they not see the man's job at the White House? If you think Colbert is too harsh, then go back and review Mooch's previous job. Then watch this video again and tell yourself that Scaramucci couldn't get a word in. When Colbert has to put up with a stupid joke about killing his staff, he has to dig into the interview while keeping things steady because Scaramucci started out completely inappropriate.

[@ezelfrancisco1349]

I would also like to add that the recent White House incident that took place a mere two days before this interview was when Trump didn't condemn the Nazis. The wound was still fresh, so the Mooch is on shaky ground here

[@anastasiaapostolou7034]

Ok did he invite the guy to interrupt him and make fun of him? And frankly the crowd are grown ups, they should stop booing at whatever he says and listen to the opposite side. That's what politics are, after all.

[@CallieCEntertainment]

I'm gonna have to give him kudos for accepting the invite to come on the show.

[@thrlegitbruh705]

For some reason when reading the title I thought it said Anthony Scaramucci would five star bannon

[@stevengeorges9046]

Great interview Steve. Very fair and to the point. (and no shouting) Why can cable news interviews be more like this?

[@NewMessage]

And tomorrow morning, when one of the writers is 15 minutes late for work, every one in the office is going to start frantically texting their phone, while simultaneously eyeing their yogurt in the fridge that is just going to go to waste now, right? I mean.. Someone should eat it.. out of respect for the dead....

[@MadFrenzy582]

MOOOOOOOCH!

[@JDsVarietyChannel]

9:02. Listen closely. Was that a deceptive edit for when the cheered him? As soon as the audience started cheering for the "guest" the clip goes right back to Colbert talking again

[@zafran20]

he said he would fire Steve Bannon, and they started cheering? Lol

[@kremove]

@@zafran20 I doubt it because the spirit of the show would support that.

[@nad1ax2]

I actually physically attended the taping of this episode and they have cut out many instances of boos too

[@smohan123]

"Did he order his spine on Amazon Prime..." Colbert = GOAT

[@lazyperfectionist1]

"He gave up a very luxurious lifestyle-" If he regrets that step, he can quit. I promise you, he will encounter absolutely _no resistance_ here.

That was awkward.

[@joshh6809]

greatest interview yet!

[@adriancage87]

Gotta give it to the "mooch", he was the most honest representative from that administration... and wicked burn from Colbert on the Amazon prime joke.
