    So brave. Edgelords would complain about a PROPOSED RECOMMENDATION but had to qualify drinking a non-alcoholic beer on camera. So very very brave.

      And the shit about ceiling fans… Those new regulations are a win for everyone but shitty bootleg fan makers. No one is trying to “take their ceiling fans away,” this is about making them better and cheaper. But, of course they hate that, too. If Biden said, “stop running your A/C with all of your windows open,” Ted would complain about that next.

        Hell, I can even make it a conservative talking point: “This will prevent cheap Chinese-made fans that waste American’s hard-earned money and don’t work from flooding the market and provide good jobs right here at home.”

        Put on a hard hat and give a speech at the Big Ass Fans factory and you’re golden.

      Doesn’t Colbert occasionally have a glass of whiskey on stage? I don’t think he’s implied its fake either.
