With President Trump in Cincinnati for a rally on Thursday night, Stephen Colbert declared that "for once, chili on spaghetti was not the most disgusting thing in town."

The Late Show taped before Trump appeared at the rally, but Colbert did have a chance to watch Trump answer questions from reporters as he prepared to leave for Ohio. They centered on his last rally in North Carolina, where audience members started chanting, "Send her back!" about Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who came to the U.S. from Somalia as a child. "Fun fact," Colbert said. "She's still here."
