But that’s not all. In a thrilling turn of events, Stephen surprises everyone by introducing his special guest for the night – Vice President Kamala Harris. Now, this is not the first time Harris has graced the stage of The Late Show. In fact, she has been on the show six times before, showcasing her wit and charm. However, this is her first appearance as the Democratic nominee, adding even more excitement to the evening.
Harris has been on a media blitz this week, making appearances on various shows such as 60 Minutes, Howard Stern, and The View, just to name a few. She’s also been connecting with online audiences, including influencers, in an effort to reach out to younger voters, black and Latino audiences, and older Americans. Harris even sat down for an interview on the popular podcast Call Her Daddy, known for its sex-positive discussions. It seems like Harris is leaving no stone unturned in her quest to connect with the diverse demographics she hopes to represent.
Throughout the interview, Harris and the podcast host, Alex Cooper, had a candid conversation about a range of topics. They discussed an insulting comment made by Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders at a recent Town Hall, where she mentioned that Harris doesn’t seem to be humble. Harris responded, highlighting that not all women aspire to be humble, especially when their goal is to become a powerful figure in the world. The conversation then shifted to the topic of men making laws to control women’s reproductive rights, which both Harris and Cooper found outrageous.
Aside from discussing politics, the audience got to know a bit more about Harris’s personal preferences. Her favorite books include Native Son by Richard Wright and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. When it comes to movies, she counts My Cousin Vinny as her favorite. And who does she consider the best rapper alive? Tupac! This revelation sparked some speculation about the rapper’s whereabouts, with rumors swirling that he’s still alive and hiding in Area 51, where he’s collaborating with Bigfoot.
On a more serious note, Stephen took a moment to address the ongoing Hurricane Milton, a devastating Category 5 storm making its way towards the west coast of Florida. He urged everyone in its path to prioritize their safety and seek shelter. Stephen also shared information about organizations providing aid and encouraged viewers to donate to support those affected by this once-in-a-century storm.
Unfortunately, in the midst of this natural disaster, Donald Trump has been spreading false information about the hurricane and Vice President Harris. He has falsely claimed that there are no helicopters or rescue operations in North Carolina and even accused Harris of using federal money to house illegal migrants. Additionally, Trump’s supporters have been sharing manipulated images, further fueling misinformation. Stephen emphasized the importance of focusing on real issues and helping those in need, rather than engaging in manipulative tactics.
To add to the evening’s entertainment, Trump welcomed Elon Musk onto the stage during a campaign event in Pennsylvania. This peculiar pairing had many Trump supporters scratching their heads, as Trump has been known for his anti-immigration stance. Nevertheless, Elon’s rocket company, SpaceX, has played a significant role in advancing American space exploration, which Trump acknowledged on stage.
With Vice President Harris as the main guest and a mix of laughter, politics, and unexpected moments, tonight’s episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert definitely kept audiences entertained.
