Since his show was canceled, Colbert — and other hosts of late night — have roasted the president even more than usual. In return, Trump has said that it's "really good" to see Colbert go, and he hopes that he "played a major part in it."

Stephen Colbert has responded to news that the U.S. government has approved Paramount's $8.6 billion merger with Skydance Media, a deal which is widely speculated to be a reason behind the Late Show 's recent cancellation. With little left to lose, the Late Show host did not hold back in mocking his soon-to-be former employer.
