With Donald Trump defying the liberal media’s expectations and dismantling Hillary Clinton’s Rust Belt “firewall,” Stephen Colbert began to freak out live on The Late Show Tuesday evening. “You don't need to stand for me. You don’t need to chant my name, America doesn't have dictators… yet,” he quipped. Colbert chatted with the audience about how nice it is that the election was coming to an end, but his frustrations seemed to be riding high as he took them out on Trump’s supporters:

But right now, the election is too close to call and too terrifying to contemplate. The huge story is that Trump has outperformed expectations in early results. This one is a nail biter and a passport grabber. It feels like we are trying to avoid the apocalypse and half the country is voting for the asteroid.

“Specifically on the edge of the country waiting for Trump to win so they can walk into Canada,” he joked.

Later on in the show Colbert brought out Bloomberg’s Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, when he exclaimed, “What the fuck is happening?!” Halperin tried to let Colbert and the liberal crowd down easily, “My senses, this audience will not particularly like this, but he is now the front-runner… He has more paths now to 270 electoral votes the than she does.”

Their conversation shifted to talking about the election documentary the two Bloomberg politicos had created. Colbert wondered about how he could get a segment of the documentary dedicated to him, when he asked, “If Trump wins, how about bursting into tears and screaming fuck for the next 45 minutes?”

The host’s worst fears seemed to have been realized when he was informed that Trump had won Florida, “Wow. Wow, that’s a horrifying prospect. It can't put -- I cannot put a happy face on that. And that's my job.”

Colbert pleaded with Heilemann to bring up an example from the past to give him hope for a Clinton victory. A clearly irritated Heilemann responded, “We’re on virgin snow. Although, I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s snow. Looks like something maybe a little browner than snow that we’re on right now.”
