Court Sketch Court: To Sketch A Predator

Cameras are not allowed in the courtroom during Donald Trump’s hush money trial, so The Late Show’s animation team recreated all the action exactly the way it happened in court.

Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT, the #1 show in late night, where he talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology and more. Featuring bandleader Louis Cato and “THE LATE SHOW band,” the Peabody Award-winning and Emmy Award-nominated show is broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer and writer of THE LATE SHOW on Sept. 8, 2015.

Everything the Late Show animators create is SOLID GOLD.

With this and the Batman Begins parody being platinum.

[@colleenclements5715]

I agree . . . 💯

[@UberLummox]

Right on. Why can't SNL be this funny. Practically writes itself!

[@SuttonART]

It sure is gold to MAGA. Free the hate and make them stronger.

Speaking of sketchy courts, corrupt Alito and Thomas must be impeached and removed from the SCotUS bench.

[@embreis2257]

trouble is, Justice Roberts would never initiate such a process and certainly not while the democrats have the senate

[@dwarfie24]

Their scrotuses smell of corrpution.

I vote yes and replace with liberals to balance out the court!

[@kitcobain444]

Agreed on that 👏 💯!!!

[@sue7734]

@m.racheljones7019 In order for that to happen we need to vote blue so there is a Democratic majority in the House, Senate and White House. Republicans will never remove the partisan judges Thomas and Alito, instead they will install even more extremist judges if Trump and MAGA is elected. Voteblue! Biden/Harris 2024

@IMeMineWho Yes! When they pronounce him guilty, I think he'll release his strategic gas reserves. We need grainy pastel chalk for that.

[@VoltisArt]

Well....good news and bad news: We probably won't get another one of these sketches for at least six weeks. (Hint: That was the bad news for _most_ of us.)

[@temporaladvisor3958]

My hat's off for The Late Show’s animation team. They outdid themselves on this remarkable piece. They deserve a bonus.

Yes. They always impress. Show would not be as good without the graphics.
