Laugh Track: Course Work

CBS’ Stephen Colbert said President Trump since taking office "has gone golfing six times, six times in 30 days. That does explain the bumper sticker on Air Force One: ‘I'd rather be golfing, and there's a 20% chance that I am.’ ... Now we know the president has been to the golf course six times but for some reason, his aides would not confirm that Trump played golf each time he went to the course. Sure, he could be on the course for any reason. We know he loves making fun of people's handicaps” (“The Late Show,” CBS, 2/21).

SI swimsuit cover model Kate Upton appeared on “The Late Show” last night, and Colbert noted on one of her three covers for this year’s issue, “you have a necklace around your neck and a necklace around your waist. There is no bathing suit involved in this shoot at all.” Upton: “Which is, I guess, weird since it’s a swimsuit magazine. It’s really for the fashion.” Colbert said of Upton being engaged to Tigers P Justin Verlander, “When someone is a supermodel do they just go harvest an athlete and deliver him to you?” Laughing, Upton replied, “Yes, that’s exactly how it happens” (“The Late Show,” CBS, 2/21).
