President Trump was in Normandy, France, on Thursday, joining other world leaders in commemorating the Allied invasion 75 years ago.

“It’s the anniversary of D-Day, when we beat the Nazis, once and for until very recently. Pretty good run, you gotta say, pretty good run, 75 years.” — STEPHEN COLBERT

During a news conference with President Emmanuel Macron, a reporter asked if Trump would lead America in defense of France again. Stephen Colbert, as Trump, responded affirmatively.

“Absolutely. I’d be right there. Especially now that those World War II soldiers are so old and easy to fight. I mean, just bingity-bangity-boom, nighty-night, grandpa, beach saved!” — STEPHEN COLBERT

Colbert also weighed in on the continuing fight over Trump’s threat to impose tariffs on Mexico.
