Stephen Colbert brought out Sean Spicer for his Emmys opening monologue
Stephen Colbert’s opening monologue at tonight’s Emmy Awards was packed with jokes about the president, whom he referred to as the biggest TV personality of the year, citing as his influences House of Cards, the new American Horror Story, and all of late night television.
Colbert also detailed Trump’s history of accusing the Emmys of being rigged against him — which he tweeted before his presidential run and discussed in one of last fall’s presidential debates — and of mocking 2014 host Seth Meyers for having “marbles in his mouth.” The camera cut to Meyers, who spit out a bunch of marbles. That was probably the high point of the bit, which then turned to a special guest: former White House press secretary Sean Spicer.
