It's no surprise that Stephen Colbert is totally in the tank for the Democrats, but he certainly doesn't try to hide the fact when he has on a guest like Rachel Maddow with whom he can commiserate, i.e., drool all over Kamala Harris

In some minor news from Wednesday, we got another letter — this one from 111 former Republican national security officials explaining why they were voting for Harris. Yes, it's the next "51 former intelligence officials" on Hunter Biden's laptop or "16 Nobel prize-winning economists" warning how the world economy will suffer if Donald Trump is reelected.
Very clear and tough letter from 111 former GOP nat-security officials, on why they're voting for Harris.
(Some of them have already come out for her; a debut for some; most of them are recognizable names.)

Maddow and Colbert were marveling over the broad coalition that Harris had created, ranging from Dick Cheney to AOC. What does it say that so many Republicans seem to be endorsing Harris?
Well, to Glenn Greenwald, it just says they're a bunch of Uniparty hypocrites. Just watch this love-fest:
I'd like to know the definition of the "bipartisan ruling class DC establishment," please.

I wish there were clips of Rachel Maddow's "Air America" show during the Bush administration - a show I went on often - to hear what she was saying about people like Dick Cheney and Reagan officials (exactly what she says about Trump every day) to understand how rotted this is.

What was it The Hill reported? Cheney, who was once the GOP's Darth Vader, is now Luke Skywalker.
If only Trump had truly drained the swamp like he promised during his first term.
Remember when Steven Colbert used to mock people like Steven Colbert?

It’s pretty insane that Dick Cheney and AOC could be rooting for the same candidate.
It does certainly seem about protecting one’s personal interests above the nation’s tbh. 🤔

The elites are very scared

And those two people have opinions that people should follow?
Dick Cheney and AOC? Really... that should immediately make anyone in that thought bubble go, "Wait a minute... something isn't right."

These two deserve each other.

If “Revenge of the Nerds” was a late night talk show this would be it.

This unprecedented coalition is so broad it extends all the way from southern Maryland to northern Virginia.

Exactly. And all the way out to Wyoming … don't forget Liz Cheney.
The highlight of the interview was when Rachel let out a giant fart, and Stephen took a deep inhale, commenting on the incredible aromatic complexity of the bouquet.

To imagine that an unbroken “number line” exists on a spectrum between Dick Cheney and AOC to form a “Harris Coalition” could not be more oblivious to reality.

All this tells me is that the establishment doesn’t want someone in office who will rock their boat. Neocons, all of them!

Wait, these are two different people? 🤣

It's the Democratic hive mind. Colbert could appear as a guest on Maddow's show and they could have the exact same conversation again.
As someone said again, a candidate who attracts both Dick Cheney and AOC is not someone you want to vote for, let alone take seriously.
