Stephen Colbert takes control of the Republican convention podium before being tossed by security

Stephen Colbert grabbed the mic at the Republican National Convention for a few moments before being chased off by security. 

After mentioning Mike Pence (and briefly blacking out), Colbert said, “And so it is my honor to launch the 2016 Hungry For Power Games!” A “security” person approached and Colbert said, “I know I’m not supposed to be up here, but neither is Donald Trump!” He was then chased off the stage.

WATCH:

Sure, it was likely bit for the upcoming special coverage with old buddy Jon Stewart​, as the two team up again to cover the Republican National Convention this week. Great to see them back together again!
