Colbert Spots Kamala Harris Using Hidden 'F-Word' On Trump And The Audience Goes Wild
Stephen Colbert went live after Tuesday night’s debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump and spotted one exchange where the vice president “barely bit her tongue.”
The moment came as Harris slammed Trump for inviting the Taliban to Camp David for negotiations over Afghanistan.
“A place of storied significance for us as Americans, a place where we honor the importance of American diplomacy, where we invite and receive respected world leaders. And this,” Harris said, and paused as she gestured at Trump.
It seemed as if she were looking for the right word, then settled on “former president.”
Colbert’s audience cheered, and Colbert himself was silent for 15 seconds.
“I don’t think former president was the ‘f-word’ she was looking for,” he finally said.
