VIDEO: Late Night Hosts Mock Donald Trump Jr. Following Damaging Emails

Yesterday, Donald Trump Jr. released emails in which he discussed a meeting he had last year with a Russian lawyer who, he was promised, had information that could damage Hillary Clinton and her run for the Presidency. Trump Jr. not only agreed to the meeting in the email exchange, but also said of the potential information, "I love it."

Late night hosts pounced on the breaking news, with Stephen Colbert issuing an apology to the President's other son, Eric, explaining, "We always thought you were the dumb one." Check out video from last night's late night shows below:
