Stephen Colbert whipped out his mustache and pillows to imitate Mike Lindell as he put down MyPillow.
Lindel revealed last week that he's out of money and he can't pay his lawyers anymore. Despite telling his supporters that his lawyers "have families too," Lindell confessed that he has to save his company.
So, Colbert took a pillow to put it over MyPillow and put it out of its misery.
"I have to protect my company. No, no, no I mean it. I have to protect my company, even if it means killing it," Colbert said in a fake mustache. Pillow, don't worry, the pain will be over soon."
Colbert began his Monday night show by talking about the bizarre comment that Trump gave at his Saturday rally that he supported fictitious, cannibal serial killer, Hannibal Lecter.
"Hannibal Lecter, how great an actor was he?" said Trump. "You know why I like him? Because he said on television on one of the – ‘I love Donald Trump.’ So I love him. I love him. I love him. He said that a long time ago and once he said that, he was in my camp, I was in his camp. I don’t care if he was the worst actor, I’d say he was great to me."
The actor was Sir Anthony Hopkins, who played Lecter has made it clear that he doesn't think highly of Trump.
Actor Mads Mikkelsen, who played Lector in Hannibal Rising also doesn't think much of Trump beyond laughing at him. There's actor Brian Cox, who resembles Hopkins in some ways, but he's been very clear about his hate for Trump. It's possible that Trump thinks far-right actor Jon Voight played Lecter, but he didn't.
It comes at a time that Republicans have made Joe Biden's age a campaign issue, saying that he's too old and confused to be president.
The host explained that Trump is often so easily taken by those who support him that he ultimately ends up speaking positively about even the most abhorrent dictators.
Doing his bad impression of Trump, Colbert said: "I love Hannibal. I also love Norman Bates. He and I both get very upset when there's bad water pressure in the shower. Do you know who else loves me? Palpatine. Great emperor, Palpatine. Remember Mace Windu? Threw him right out the window, should have called him Mace Windows! I love that clown from 'IT.' Fun guy, always carries balloons for the kids, and gave me some great makeup advice! I love him. Also, you gotta love that Kooky Babadook Dook Dook. Love that name. Do you know who else said 'I love Donald Trump?' Scar. Some call him a king. A lion king. So, in a way, you could say I was endorsed by a king. So, we love him. Hyenas are our allies, guys, I don't know why we're arming the Ukrainians against the hyenas. How about Voldemort, folks? Hell of a leader. They say you can't say his name, but I'll name him. We love Voldemort, don't we? I saw in the Daily Prophet, he said he loves Trump, so I love him. He loves me. He's such a brownnoser. If he had a nose, it would be brown."
