If you missed out, Michael Rapaportshared a few heated responses to the events in Charlottesville, the white supremacists that marched on the University of Virginia campus, and Donald Trump’s response to all of it. His posts were explicitly fantastic, providing some early fire that we’d be lacking from the folks in charge of the country. That’s not exactly a good thing in the bigger picture, but it was welcome before tragedy struck in Virginia.
Stephen Colbert or someone at The Late Show must’ve noticed and asked Rapaport to share his views on the show while promoting his book, This Book Has Balls. It’s the sanitized version, but it’s still pretty frenzied and it includes Rapaport’s message to Jared Kushner and his offer to meet up for a bagel, cream cheese, and lox.
It’s all great and the original versions from his Instagram feed are included here, but the best bit might be how Rapaport goes instantly from being ashamed of Jared Kushner to commenting on Stephen Colbert’s weird ear. This leads to a story involving “street stuff” that ended with Rapaport losing part of his ear. He does bring it back to Trump by the end, commenting on the president’s turkey giblet of a neck. He never needs a suitcase apparently because he’s stuffing everything in there.
You also have to love his Jennifer Jason Leigh tale from the set of Atypical, if only for the awkwardness of it all. The only thing missing here is some fine sports talk to make it full course interview.
