From Mediaite:

Stephen Colbert is back after a short hiatus and it didn’t take long before he turned to President Donald Trump‘s CPAC performance.

In fact, mockery of Trump’s CPAC flag-hugging moment started even before Colbert’s monologue with a mock commercial which showed Trump’s flag hug and asked “are you physically attracted to flags” before flashing a number — 1-555-HOT-FILF — where “naughty” flags were waiting.

“Call today and star spangle your banner all night long,” the mock commercial then teased.

Colbert also tackled the flag hug in his opening monologue.

Calling Trump’s speech “epically weird,” Colbert joked the president gave the speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference or “D-Bag.”

He then turned to Trump’s flag-hugging entry.

He is “dry humping Old Glory,” Colbert noted, before saying it was the “the first time a flag’s ever volunteered to be burned.”

The complete Youtube video of the opening monologue (much longer than the clip with the article) plus a link to the LSSC tweet with full video of the fake commercial are in the post in the Video forum.

4. The US Constitution protects the right of republican draft dodgers to dryhump the flag

But it is still profoundly disrespectful to all the men and women who have made sacrifices for America. And it is still DEPLORABLE (R).
