Seth Meyers is the following late-night discuss present host to search out himself in President Donald Trump‘s crosshairs.
The Emmy winner, who has hosted “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on NBC since 2014, was the topic of a tirade from Trump, who prompt over the weekend it’s “probably illegal” to be “100% ANTI TRUMP.”
“I watched his show the other night for the first time in years,” he wrote in a social media put up on Saturday. “In it he talked endlessly about electric catapults on aircraft carriers which I complain about as not being as good as much less expensive steam catapults. On and on he went, a truly deranged lunatic.”
Trump was reacting to Meyers’ monologue on Thursday’s episode wherein he mocked the President’s speech to members of the U.S. army . The previous star of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice” declared the “Saturday Night Live” alum “may be the WORST to perform, live or otherwise.”
He continued: “Why does NBC waste its time and money on a guy like this??? – NO TALENT, NO RATINGS, 100% ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!”
