Stephen Colbert dares Obama to an intense Wordle showdown

In a playful twist, Stephen Colbert not only challenged the former president to wastepaper basketball, where he triumphed twice, but also invited him to a Wordle race during their latest interview. In the shared clip, both attempt to solve the puzzle in near silence. Obama succeeds in three guesses, whereas Colbert asserts he finished in two, though text on the screen hints he may have cheated. Obama’s comeback: “You seem intent, every time I’m on the show, to exert your superiority in some fashion.”
