Colbert: Clinton win like something seen in a ’sci-fi novel or any other country in the world’

http://www.rawstory.com/2016/06/colbert-clinton-win-like-something-seen-in-a-sci-fi-novel-or-any-other-country-in-the-world/

Colbert began highlighting the fact that Clinton is the first female nominee of a major political party. “It sends a powerful message to women that if you just work hard, someday you too can be vilified as an unlikable, machiavellian crone,” Colbert said.

He also said that it’s fitting Clinton is the first female nominee in the race against Donald Trump, because “he’ll be his party’s last nominee.”
