Internet in stitches as Stephen Colbert finds rare good news for Biden in 2024 amidst conspiracy theories
MANHATTAN, NEW YORK CITY: As the presidential election draws near, Americans are experiencing a sense of deja vu, according to Stephen Colbert. From events like the Super Bowl to Super Tuesday, Colbert remarked that "it’s like we’re watching a rerun of 2020."
Looking ahead, the Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII, reminiscent of the matchup four years ago.
Colbert finds humor and relief in Biden's surging poll numbers among women
While recent polls indicated Donald Trump leading Biden in 2024, a new Quinnipiac poll shows the current president surging six points ahead of his predecessor, a development that seemed to amuse Colbert.
Stephen Colbert expressed relief with a humorous tone, saying, "Thank god. Some good news in an otherwise depressing reality. This is like finding some punch in a turd bowl."
Colbert joked that he's not precisely sure what Joe Biden did that precipitated the sudden boost.

He jokingly suggested that "political analysts think it may be his strategy of standing still while his opponent repeatedly quotes Hitler."
The reference was to Trump's controversial statements, where he has been criticized for claiming that immigrants are "poisoning the blood" of America, echoing rhetoric associated with the Nazi leader.
Transitioning to a more serious note, Colbert noted that this boost in the polls is predominantly - and unsurprisingly - attributed to women voters. He shared, "Biden leads among women by a margin of 58 to 36 percent," eliciting loud applause.
Colbert quipped, "That’s right. Hey ladies. Hello ladies. That’s right, the ladies love cool Joe."
