LOADING ERROR LOADING“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Wednesday mocked President Donald Trump’s renewed obsession with honoring the Confederate leaders who fought against the United States during the Civil War. Trump this week said he was restoring the names of those figures to U.S. military bases, including one honoring Gen. Robert E. Lee. Colbert fired back with a reminder straight from the history books. “Yes, ’cuz when you think winning, you think Robert E. Lee,” Colbert said. “Same reason we just named our new battleship the USS New York Jets.”
