Instead of a reflective monologue, Colbert launched a harsh, vulgar attack on former President Donald Trump, declaring &#8220;the gloves are off&#8221; and expressing open disdain for Trump. The segment included Colbert mocking Trump&#8217;s recent social media post celebrating the show&#8217;s end, responding with crude insults and continuing his criticism by linking Trump to controversial figures like Jeffrey Epstein. The article frames Colbert&#8217;s show as more about political rage and resistance rather than comedy, contrasting his approach unfavorably with the success of Greg Gutfeld, who built a comedy brand without network support. it presents Colbert&#8217;s tenure as marked by political vitriol and declining ratings, wich allegedly led to the show&#8217;s cancellation.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Stephen Colbert returned to &ldquo;The Late Show with Stephen Colbert&rdquo;
