Stephen Colbert paid proper tribute to the latest fallen tribute in 2016’s “Hungry For Power Games” on Monday’s episode of “The Late Show”: former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R).
“Oh my, they’re dwindling. Now they’re just Hillary Clinton and the Seven Dwarves,” Colbert said as his version of Hunger Games host Caesar Flickerman assembled the remaining presidential candidates.
Colbert’s reoccurring skit is based on the widely popular novels by Suzanne Collins and movie franchise starring Jennifer Lawrence.
Jeb!, Colbert yelled, was unable to overcome the name recognition of his family’s political dynasty in this reality-television election.
“That’s right. This election is like Survivor. But sadly Jeb did not run an Amazing Race. He just didn’t have that X Factor and nothing short of an Extreme Makeover could make people forget his Big Brother,” Colbert said.
Bush’s campaign might have even been over when he used Spanish in his campaign announcement.
“How do you say, ‘Hasta la vista’ in Español?” Colbert asked.
