Dr. House, AKA Hugh Laurie, Diagnoses The Real Problem With Trump

(Spoiler!) Like on "House," it's not Lupus.

It’s a good thing Hugh Laurie is a fake doctor, because Donald Trump just got burned.

Stephen Colbert hosted Laurie on a live episode of his “Late Show” following the final presidential debate on Wednesday. The famed TV doctor ― who played Dr. House for years on Fox’s “House” and is now a forensic neuropsychiatrist in the new Hulu series “Chance” ― then took a stab at diagnosing the candidates.

“It may be too late, but for Trump I would suggest breastfeeding,” said Laurie.

Daaamn, Doc!

“He might take you up on it,” quipped Colbert.

Laurie was a little confused by Hillary Clinton. The TV doctor couldn’t really figure out why some people seem to dislike her so much.

“She seems fine to me,” said Laurie.

But the actor did figure out the problem with the election overall.

“This whole election has been sold to the people on the basis of incipient disaster,” he said. Laurie later added, “There’s profit in saying the world is coming to an end, and it’s not actually the case.”

And, according to Dr. House, Americans probably have more to worry about with diabetes than ISIS.

“If ISIS were halfway decent at their job, they would be opening a chain of donut shops,” said Laurie.

Trump can worry about diabetes later, though. His first problem is finding some ointment for that burn.
