Stephen Colbert's 4-Word Nickname For Donald Trump
by Mychal ThompsonBuzzFeedBuzzFeed StaffIf you must know, I based my entire personality on Seasons 2-5 of "Girls," and I'm a huge gamer.
Stephen Colbert just roasted Donald Trump with an embarrassing four-word nickname, and I laughed so hard I almost passed out.

On Monday, Trump responded to a question about the Iran war in the Oval Office from a reporter who asked, "If Iran, as you said, totally obliterated, got the missiles, got the first two rounds of leadership, air force gone, navy gone. Can we wrap this war up this week?"

Trump responded, "Yeah, sure. We could."

When the reporter followed up with the question, "Will we?" Trump answered, "I don't think so, but it'll be soon."

During his March 17 Late Show monologue, Colbert dragged Trump's seemingly drowsy-like response to the question in a segment he called "Hormuz Nuz U Can Uz," discussing Trump's recent call for America's NATO allies to help unblock the Strait of Hormuz.

The Associated Press reports that the shipping traffic in "the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway for global oil and gas transport that supplies roughly one-fifth of the world's crude oil, has been halted since early March, after the war started. About 20 vessels have been attacked in the area."
While the conversation itself was nothing to take lightly, Colbert couldn't resist dragging Trump over his apparent lack of energy discussing the ongoing US-Israeli bombing campaign targeting Iran.

"Hey! President Sleepy-Time Bear, wake up!" he shouted.

Colbert even suggested somebody "get him some toothpicks" to prop open his drowsy eyeballs.

"Try to stay awake for your own bombing campaign. Somebody cut this guy a rail of Tic Tacs or else we will have to rename our segment, 'Hormuz Nuz U Can Uz — Commander-in-Snuz,'" Colbert joked.

Colbert's dig might've been brutal, but the internet's reactions to his monologue are even more lethal. Here's what people are saying:
"How about the Strait of Jacket for the prez"

"The orange narcissist is not mentally fit to be any kind of leader."

"One thing I have total faith in is Trump's profound stupidity."

"I love how small he looks behind that desk, gripping it with those tiny fingers..."

"Everyone else is playing chess while Trump is playing tidly winks."
