Colbert just eviscerated Donald Trump in his monologue tonight.

He was mocking Trump"s claim that his dad gave him a "small loan" of $1,000,000 when he was starting out. Colbert then whipped out a HUGE check for $1M made out to the Harlem Children's Zone & challenged Trump to come on the show and sign it if it's such a "small" amount of money. Priceless.

I was afraid that he'd lose his edge, but he didn't tonight. Well done, Mr. Colbert. Very well done.

that's around $7 million in today's dollars. The Harlem Children's zone could certainly put an extra $6 million to good use....
