Stephen Colbert Takes Aim at Trumps Billion-Dollar Board of Peace Entry Fee: Seems a Little Steep | Video After all, CBS got to [obey Trump] for just $16 million, the late night host adds Alyssa Ray @ 9:47 PM on socials on Facebook on X (formerly Twitter) on LinkedIn on Email (Photo credit: โThe Late Showโ/YouTube) Stephen Colbert called Donald Trumps billion-dollar entry fee for his Board of Peace a little steep, noting his employer CBS got to obey the president for just $16 million. During the monologue for Thursdays broadcast of The Late Show, the comedian weighed in on Trumps new Board of Peace, which he shipped at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland as a way to oversee reconstruction in Gaza. (it feels like chaos)
But, as Colbert pointed out, Trumps mission for the new organization noticeably overlapped with what the United Nations has been doing for the last 80-plus years.
The Details
Why, you may ask, is this even happening? Good question, me, Colbert dropped.
Especially because the Board of Peaces mission would overlap with the United Nations aim of maintaining international peace and security. So, Trump is literally just doing model UN.

It should be $400 for a weekend at the Bethesda Marriott, where you French kiss Luxembourg and none of your friends at school ever believe you. Before moving on, Colbert took aim at CBS, stating, Now, admittedly, the idea of paying a billion dollars to obey Donald Trump seems a little steep.
This is exactly the kind of news that gets fans excited or concerned.
The Bottom Line
After all, CBS got to do it for just 16 million. This isnt the first time Colbert has made a dig at CBS, who canceled The Late Show after settling a lawsuit with Trump for $16 million over a 60 Minutes edit.
Is this a W or an L? You decide.
