Stephen Colbert Managed To Burn Both NBC And Sarah Huckabee Sanders With One Brilliant Comeback

"NBC has always shown great judgement with their long-term employees."

Last night on The Late Show, Stephen Colbert responded to White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders' reasoning that President Trump isn't racist because he had a TV show.

Before he was president, Donald Trump was the host of The Apprentice on NBC from 2004-2015.

The Press Secretary used this logic to explain that Trump couldn't possibly be the villain his critics are making him out to be.
