I'LL BET Trump had his goons look into re-naming the Ed Sullivan Theater as the Donald Trump Theater.

Maybe the same thing he did with The Kennedy Center,

THE DONALD TRUMP &
ed sullivan
THEATER.

CNN has a piece on the final Colbert show:

https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/22/media/stephen-colbert-last-late-show-hnk

and when I read "As for the famed Ed Sullivan Theater stage where the show was produced for decades, there are no firm plans for what will become of the 100-year-old performance space," my immediate reaction was "Fuck ME, do NOT name it after Trump."

That's the way his mind works...the "final revenge" against Colbert, after he expressed how much the venue meant to him.

I bet that when entertainers like Ella Fitzgerald, Jackie Wilson and Nina Simone appeared on the Ed Sullivan show, Fred must have lost his shit. And the worst part, Ed kept doing it. Gotta make daddy happy in the afterlife.
