Colbert commented on a live post-DNC show from Chicago about the “cutest instructors ever” addressing the convention, while Republicans like Trump continually mispronounce Harris’ first name despite her years as a politician.
“First you say ‘comma,’ like a comma in a sentence,” said Amara Ajagu, a daughter of Meena Harris, the vice president’s niece.
“Then you say ‘la,’ like ‘la, la, la, la,’” added Leela Ajagu, another daughter of Meena Harris.
Colbert got an immediate impression of Trump before sharing his own lesson about the Republican nominee.
“By the way, if you want to pronounce her opponent’s first name, it’s Don, like a mafia leader and old, like how his act gets,” Colbert joked.
