Clearly riffing off of Donald Trump’s behavior, comedian Stephen Colbert announced his own “serious classy” Republican debate in South Carolina.

“The GOP wants a serious debate, they deserve it, bar none, it is the best political party in the world, that includes space.” Colbert said.

Colbert said the debate, clearly a joke at this point, would be broadcast on ‘Animal Planet’ in January,

“Gentlemen, Lady, Call me!” Colbert said, “Cain can come too, the blacks love me.”
