Stephen Colbert Trolls Donald Trump With A Subtle Omission From His Monologue

And the snub didn't go unnoticed on Twitter.

President Donald Trump appeared to be he who shall not be named in Stephen Colbert’s monologue on Thursday’s broadcast of his US talk show.

The host did not say the words “Donald Trump” during his 13-minute summary of the day’s events, while the term “Trump” was also censored in screenshots of news headlines that the late-night presenter was passing comment on.

It’s not the first time Colbert hasn’t said Trump’s name.

And Twitter users spotted the subtle snub...

My husband says Stephen Colbert is now using T**** instead of Trump when his name appears on the screen.

Serious question: why do people censor “Trump”? I notice some people on Twitter doing that; others do this: “tRump”. Tonight, Colbert censored Trump’s name
