After a weekend of constant absurdity from the Trump camp, which left us all scratching our heads and rolling our eyes at the same time (not an easy feat), you probably assumed that every late night host on television would have a few things to say. You’d be right with that assumption, but not one of them laid it all out there quite like Seth Meyers did on Monday’s Late Night segment, A Closer Look.
Is Trump under investigation? That seems to be the question of the day, but no one in the White House appears to know the answer! Although Trump himself tweeted that he was under investigation by the man who told him to fire former FBI Director James Comey (even though Trump himself said it was his own decision to fire Comey) Trump’s lawyer, Jay Sekulow, spent the better part of the weekend vehemently denying that fact, and then later accidentally confirmed it during an interview with Chris Wallace, which will likely go down in the history books as one the most ridiculous exchanges on live TV ever. Chris Wallace was so exasperated, he could only say, “Oh boy. This is weird!”, which of course it was.
Seth showed a clip of that interview, and because the comedy of the situation (as Spicer would say of Trump’s tweets) speaks for itself, Seth didn’t need to really say much to have the audience roaring with laughter, but he did have this to add:
I don’t know about you guys, but I hate it when guys with the same haircut and glasses fight.”
There was a lot of news to fit into this short segment, but Meyers managed to do it. Not even “lurker” Jared Kushner got left out. Watch the full video below.
