Colbert: Trump’s Campaign Is ‘Dead in the Water’ Like Much of the Fish in East Palestine

RUSH EXCERPT:

COLBERT: “This trip for him, it’s a little awkward, because he’s visiting after having cut rail regulations as president. Or as a “Philadelphia inquirer” op-ed put it, the ex-president will return to the scene of his crime. Yeah. It’s a little awkward. A little awkward. That easy. This may be a surprise to you, the former president was not just in high out of the goodness of his heart. You see, his 2024 presidential run has gotten off to a rocky start, struggling to generate excitement. So, he viewed the visit as a major campaign event. So, it’s fitting to restart his campaign in East Palestine. Because much like the fish there, it’s dead in the water.”
