Tonight: The metaphors the GOP used to describe their health care 'win' make even less sense than the health care plan itself. #LSSC pic.twitter.com/QWgsGduLq5 The Late Show (@colbertlateshow) May 5, 2017 Late Show host Stephen Colbert ridiculed House Republicans on Thursday for celebrating the passage of the American Health Care Act, and reminded the GOP that the bill still had a long way to go before it was signed into law.The GOP just kicked America in the balls, Colbert said, as he criticized Republicans for throwing a beer bash after the vote. They havent accomplished anything yet, but it wasnt just beer. They also served unhatched chickens.Colbert then took aim at White House chief of staff Reince Priebus for making a football analogy that was originally reported as a flub.The Hills Molly Hooper later tweeted an apology to Priebus for inadvertently misquoting him:.@Reince .@reince said "punch" the ball! Correction! Went back to relisten to audio (for 4th time) and heard the "Ch" apologies sportfans& @Reince Molly Hooper (@mollyhooper) May 4, 2017 Correct @reince quote: "The president stepped up and helped PUNCH the ball into the end zone."
