Stephen Colbert begs for England to ‘take us back,’ is sent packing
After taking criticism from U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May for retweeting videos from Britain First, President Donald Trump on Wednesday replied with this tweet:
.@Theresa_May, don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine!

The Washington Examiner reports that comic Stephen Colbert took issue with the idea that the United States is doing just fine, asking on his show Friday night that England “take us back.”

Here’s the bit:
Piers Morgan was sent packing and the United States seems to be doing pretty well; maybe Colbert would prefer to host a show in the U.K.?

At the very least take Stephen Colbert back. He's about as funny as flooding UR country with Muslim extremists that want to kill U. https://t.co/nqa2UXWFO4

I like the English just fine, but I'm not obsessed over what they think of us. If you like them so much why don't just go there already? https://t.co/CeWMmTSYVr

Wait, I thought England was an awful, irredeemable place based on the Brexit vote. What changed? https://t.co/1lPHgm4BMY

Hey, #stevencolbert, Brits are emigrating from their own country and the US is their number 2 destination after Australia. You're pretty out of touch, aren't you?https://t.co/vlmgM7SVJt https://t.co/CL2iBHP0h1

The beauty of America, @StephenAtHome is that you are FREE to leave at any time. Don't let Trump's big balls hit you in your ❄️ass on your way out! https://t.co/jqB41gNqpF

I remember American history, learning about the incredible bravery and sacrifice of Washington's troops, Colbert just took a big steaming shit on all of it. https://t.co/mqbWRmhCOy

@StephenAtHome YOU are more than welcome to emigrate to England at any time. In fact, go to Venezuela. Get a full dose of you beloved socialism. Just don't say anything, Venezuelans are depressed enough. https://t.co/Mz9UmvhiSP
