People have been watching entertainment shows about politics for nearly the last 20 years. Colbert's whole career and popularity is based on his work turning politics into comedy. It's what he likes to do, it's what his writers like to do, it's what his audience watches him for.

With all the bizarre things Tump is doing people seem to be interested it what Colbert has to say. On Monday Jan 30.his ratings were higher than Fallan or Kimmel by a wide margin.
