\u201cSo often these days, folks, the news goes from stupid to sad to sadly stupid. But today, I\u2019m happy to report it\u2019s just plain dumb,\u201d he said. \u201cLate this morning, the president held an impromptu press conference from a highly unusual location.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Colbert rolled footage of Trump on the roof of the White House. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cSir, why are you on the roof?\u201d a reporter called out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThat\u2019s not a question you hear asked of a world leader that often,\u201d Colbert pointed out. \u201cIt\u2019s right up there with, \u2018Your majesty, where are your pants?\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That led Colbert to some other important questions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWhat does any of this mean? How are you the guy in charge?\u201d he asked. \u201cWhy do we have to pretend it\u2019s normal when an old man wanders around a roof and shouts at us?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
