Stephen Colbert has not aired a show since last Thursday's Republican debate, so until last night, the late-night comedian had not had time to weigh in on the fact that Donald Trump brought up the size of his penis. Monday night, Colbert made up for lost time, unleashing a stream of jokes, including some self-deprecating ones, that got right to the meat of the matter.

"The people have the right to know the size of his executive branch . . . It's time for him to release the long form, or the short form as the case may be . . . Why would a guy with a small penis put his name on the top of skyscrapers? It doesn't make sense... "

No one does it better than Colbert. Watch:
