CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed radio host Charlamagne Tha God to a live edition of The Late Show on night three of the Republican National Convention to irresponsibly suggest that if President Biden, or some other Democrat, wins in November, the Supreme Court will nullify it.

Colbert asked, “You’re very honest about your struggles with anxiety. I admire you're willing to talk about that. Is there anything right now in the world that is making you anxious? Or particularly anxious?”
