The statement 'Feelings are not facts. Politics is often about perception, not reality. If Colbert thinks harder about it he will see that the fact that no other candidate has ever been put through the wringer as Trump is, can lead to feelings that he is the worst...OR...that he is being...' suggests a perspective that emphasizes the distinction between emotions and factual evidence, particularly in the context of political discourse. It implies that Stephen Colbert, presumably in his role as a political commentator or comedian, may be influenced by perception rather than objective reality. The statement also suggests that the treatment of a political figure, in this case, Donald Trump, could be perceived in different ways, depending on one's interpretation of the events. The tone appears to be critical but not disrespectful or harmful.
