[See NewsBusters for more.] A panicky Stephen Colbert on Thursday night worried about a replay of 2016's surprise and highlighted the "PTSD" he has from Trump’s win four years ago. The Late Show host worried, “Currently, 538's election projection says the chances of Biden winning the election are 89 percent and only 11 percent for Donald Trump and The Economist has Biden at 96 percent. So, that's great. I'm happy? Funny, this all feels so familiar.” He then played a montage of journalists and politicians getting it wrong.
