Stephen Colbert slams Amazon for spending $75 million on Melania documentary
The Melania documentary has had its premiere, and like Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert has thoughts — particularly about how much money Amazon spent on it.
"This film did not come cheap, y'all. To produce and distribute it Jeff Bezos paid $75 million. Now obviously he's one of richest men in the world, that's chump change to Bezos himself, but it might have helped the 16,000 people that Amazon announced they were firing yesterday," says Colbert in the Late Show monologue above.
"You know what? I have had it. I say we storm the castle!" the host adds, taking out his phone. "Let's see, er, Amazon has pitchforks, that's good, and let's see, they also have torches, that's good. And let's see, on Prime let's order that, and... the revolution will start in two business days."
