Donald Trump is going to be a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
The New York Times' Dave Itzkoff got a hold of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert's guest list for week three, and it's pretty solid:
The guest list is interesting for its variety — there are plenty of politicians (Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Elizabeth Warren), actors with something to promote (Kerry Washington, Hugh Jackman), and a healthy dose of intellectuals of the type who would have appeared on The Daily Show or The Colbert Report (Nobel Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai, author Andrew Sullivan).
But perhaps the biggest draw in Colbert's third week will be none other than GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump. After a rollicking debut show in which Colbert spent a full five minutes trashing the real estate magnate, it should be interesting to watch the two go head-to-head in an interview.
