Trump Posts AI Video of Himself Throwing Stephen Colbert Into Dumpster

Trump’s AI clip extends his feud with Colbert as critics call the post a crude attack on a departing late-night rival.

  • Donald Trump posted an AI-generated video to Truth Social showing himself throwing Stephen Colbert into a dumpster following the host's final episode of The Late Show.
  • CBS axed The Late Show following a long campaign by Trump to force it off the air, though the network cited production costs despite the program holding the highest ratings in its timeslot.
  • The decision came soon after a proposed merger between parent company Paramount and Skydance, while Colbert criticized CBS for a $16 million payout to Trump, calling it a "big fat bribe."
  • Trump celebrated the move, declaring the firing the "Beginning of the End" for "untalented, nasty, highly overpaid, not funny, and very poorly rated Late Night Television Hosts."
  • During an interview on the program last week, Kimmel discussed viewer boycotts, noting that people cancelled Disney Plus subscriptions after he was briefly taken off air for comments regarding Charlie Kirk.
