Stephen Colbert reported that Trump seemed to be so surprised by his own speeches that he had no idea what was in them.
Colbert played a clip of Trump saying, “You know, we won this state. We won this state with a huge majority. “And it turned out that we actually won this state.”
The late night host responded, “It's very courageous to go to a state you lost and tell the crowd that you actually won. It's like bumping into your ex and saying, 'Amanda, hi. You look great, of course I know this because it turns out we're still together. “We are still very much together.”
Colbert played another clip of Trump saying, “Remember, 10:00. Everyone is calling me. They're saying, “Congratulations sir.” And then there were a lot of dumps at 3:02 in the morning.”
