mcconnell was giving some comments about expectations coming out of the white house. the president responding in signature fashion, meaning nasty. so here is what mcconnell said. our new president of course, i ve been in this line of work before, and i think had excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the democratic process. and so part of the reason i think people feel like we re underperforming is because too many kind of artificial deadlines unrelated to the reality and the complexity of legislating. not the most scathing attack we ve ever heard in politics, but it was enough to prompt a sharp response from the president. here is his tweet. senator mcconnell said i had excessive expectations. i don t think so. after seven years of hearing
big changes in late night and beyond jimmy fallon, stephen colbert s late show takeover is making waves through late night tv. the colbert tv host would be taking over for david letterman. colbert issued a statement he would do it as himself, not as the anchorman character he s inhabited for the colbert report. he covered the big news in his signature fashion. this man has influenced every host who came after him and even a few who came before him. he s that good. and i got to tell you, i do not envy whoever they try to put in that chair.
