Stephen Colbert delivered a blast from the past on Thursday as he offered Donald Trump a reminder of one of his first failures in Washington while he recapped the latest in the former presidents criminal trial in the Stormy Daniels hush money case.

Trumps attorneys tried to show that former Trump attorney Michael Cohen has an ax to grind with his old boss and cant be trusted as a result.

At one point, they got Cohen to confirm he felt rejected by Trump, especially after he had a hard time getting tickets to the 2017 inauguration.

Wow, said Colbert. That had to sting. Cuz we all know, there were plenty of seats available.

Colbert showed a picture of the relatively sparse turnout at the National Mall for Trumps inauguration images that at the time caused Trump to throw a fit.
