<\/p>\n#FireColbert Trends on Twitter After Stephen Colbert Uses Gay Sex to Describe Trump-Putin Relationship<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In Stephen Colbert\u2019s monologue on Monday night, Colbert unpacked Donald Trump\u2019s recent interview with CBS reporter John Dickerson<\/a> which was shut down finally when Dickerson asked Trump about calling Obama a \u201csick\u201d and \u201cbad\u201d man<\/a> and Trump\u2019s claims he was surveilled.<\/p>\n Colbert ended his monologue with a barrage of insults aimed at Trump, one of which pissed a lot of people off.<\/p>\n Said Colbert:<\/p>\n \u201cWhen you insult one member of the CBS family, you insult us all!\u2026You talk like a sign language gorilla that got hit in the head. \u00a0The only thing your mouth is good for is being Vladimir Putin\u2019s c**k holster.\u201d<\/p>\n Watch:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n #FireColbert began trending over the day on Tuesday. Some viewers were angry because\u00a0they saw the joke as\u00a0homophobic \u2013 conservatives\u00a0were angry because it insulted Trump.<\/p>\n Colbert’s homophobic rant was disgusting and we won’t tolerate this anti-LGBTQ behavior.#FireColbert<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Scott Presler (@ScottPresler) May 3, 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Hey @CBS<\/a> #StephenColbert<\/a> is NOT a comic. I NEVER tune in because of his hate-filled attitude towards @POTUS<\/a> @realDonaldTrump<\/a> #FireColbert<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Rep. B.J. Nikkel (@RepBJNikkel) May 3, 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n I don’t want to hear #FireColbert<\/a> from a group of Deplorables THAT BOYCOTTED BEAUTY AND THE BEAST BECAUSE OF A GAY CHARACTER!<\/p>\n BE QUIET!<\/p>\n \u2014 Tony Posnanski (@tonyposnanski) May 3, 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Now the little right wing mushrooms want to #FireColbert<\/a> because he made fun of the Troll King. Waaaa! It’ll go as well as #BoycottHamilton<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2014 George Takei (@GeorgeTakei) May 3, 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n l am gay<\/a> and I wasn’t offended by Stephen Colbert. So, don’t #FireColbert<\/a>; give him a raise. Trump has it coming & Colbert delivers!<\/p>\n \u2014 Mr Burlesk (@mrburlesk) May 3, 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Gossip Cop reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n While the crack seemed to get an overwhelmingly positive reaction from the studio audience, others on social media have deemed it not just lewd, but also homophobic and an inappropriate comment to make about the commander-in-chief. The clip circulated online throughout Tuesday, culminating in the \u201c#FireColbert\u201d hashtag. But not everyone using the phrase wants the TV personality to be fired. Conservatives are calling on CBS to do just that, but liberals are countering that such a punishment is unjustified.<\/p>\n What\u00a0do you think?<\/p>\n The post #FireColbert Trends on Twitter After Stephen Colbert Uses Gay Sex to Describe Trump-Putin Relationship<\/a> appeared first on Towleroad<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
