Stephen Colbert is turning bizarre comments from President Trump into a children's book that will actually help those suffering from Hurricane Florence.
On Friday night's episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the host turned the spotlight back on those still suffering from Hurricane Florence, particularly in North Carolina and his own home state of South Carolina.
With many still suffering, Colbert, 54, decided to take Trump's unhelpful comments about a boat that washed ashore, and use them for a children's book, with all proceeds going to help the victims of Hurricane Florence.
A real book: Stephen Colbert and his writers turned bizarre comments from President Trump into a children's book that will benefit Hurricane Florence survivors
Colbert revealed in his monologue on Friday's show that some areas of the Carolinas are suffering even more now that the rivers have crested, two weeks after the hurricane.
Last week, Trump paid a visit to New Bern, North Carolina, which was decimated by the hurricane, where he was seemingly transfixed by a boat who had washed ashore.'
'At least you got a nice boat out of the deal,' Trump said to one of the Hurricane Florence victims.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
