Trump Tries to Steal Santa's Sack of Ballots in Stephen Colbert's 'Twas The Coup Before Christmas

  • Stephen Colbert is no stranger to the holiday special, having produced and starred in one of the genre's all-time best, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that he's behind the new seven-minute holiday short, 'Twas the Coup Before Christmas

    Highlights of this holiday wrap-up of the outgoing president's attempts to overturn the election include Mitch McConnell dressed as the melting Nazi from Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Abominable Snowman being a big MAGA guy who thinks Santa's magic is full of pro-Trump ballots, and the key to uniting America again being bacon-scented masks. Colbert himself even provides the halting voice of Wolf Blitzer.
