Stephen Colbert tells Donald Trump to go 'f*** yourself' in brutal segment

Stephen Colbert told US President Donald Trump to go 'f**k himself' as he responded to a tweet the POTUS made about the CBS talk show host. CBS recently announced their decision to cancel The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, with the show not returning after May 2026.

CBS said financial difficulties were part of the reason they decided to cancel the long-running show, as they were 'losing money' in a challenging late-night show environment. Convicted felon and US President Trump, who is known to lash out at celebrities, was delighted at the news and took to his social media to share his excitement over The Late Show's cancellation.

"I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!" he wrote.

"Greg Gutfield is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show." In a segment on Stephen's show, the host read out Trump's tweet while doing an impression of the President's voice.

The audience booed the tweet before Stephen confidently said: "How dare you, sir? Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism?" before turning to a different camera and adding: "Go f**k yourself!"

Cheers could be heard from the audience before they started chanting: "Stephen! Stephen! Stephen!" After the cancellation of the show was announced, fellow talk show hosts shared their support for the star.

Jimmy Kimmel wrote: "Love you Stephen. F**k you and all your Sheldons, CBS.” Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers also posted their support.

Tonight Show host Jimmy said: "I’m just as shocked as everyone," while Seth posted: "I’m going to miss having him on TV every night."

In a joint statement, Paramount and CBS bosses said: "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert will end its historic run in May 2026 at the end of the broadcast season. We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire The Late Show franchise at that time.

“We are proud that Stephen called CBS home. He and the broadcast will be remembered in the pantheon of greats that graced late night television.”

It continued: "This is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount.”

Stephen broke the news last Thursday and told viewers: "I want to let you know something I found out just last night. Next year will be our last season. The network will be ending The Late Show in May.”
