Louis C.K. stayed away from Trump jokes in his new Netflix special, but he didn’t hold back on The Late Show last night.

Host Stephen Colbert asked the comedian about an email he sent to fans last March, in which he compared Trump to Hitler. “I don’t take it back,” he said. “I regret it.”

Asked how he feels a year later, now that Trump is president, C.K. said: “I guess he’s not as profound as I thought he was. I thought he was some new kind of evil. But he’s just a lying sack of shit.”

He goes on to add a handful of more descriptive words to that assessment.

Colbert continues to see a ratings boost from his anti-Trump offensive. He just beat Jimmy Fallon for the ninth week straight.
