He said that everyone was putting on a show "on both sides"! The old false equivalency BS. And he was upset that people in the media used the word "criminal" when talking about the Trump administration. Also, he disagreed with Schiff for saying that this is worse than Watergate. I don't think he has a clue what is really going on.

I think Colbert was biting his tongue!
