The Late-Night Host Strikes Back!
In a heated exchange, renowned late-night comedian Seth Meyers fired back at former President Trump's scathing criticism of his jokes. Trump, in a public post, unleashed a tirade, branding Meyers as 'deranged' and lacking talent, specifically targeting his comedic remarks about Trump's critique of aircraft carrier construction. But here's where it gets personal...
Meyers, unphased, took to his NBC show to address the situation with a witty retort. He humorously acknowledged the New Yorker's advice to ignore rants, but couldn't resist a clever comeback. He agreed that Trump could call him untalented and deranged, but then turned the tables, pointing out that it's Trump who can't stop talking about aircraft carrier catapults!
This isn't the first time Trump has clashed with late-night hosts. He's previously targeted major networks, claiming unfair criticism in their news coverage. Meyers, however, isn't backing down. He's joined other comedians in defending their peers, even speaking out against the settlement between Paramount and the Trump administration after CBS's decision to end 'The Late Show.'
But the question remains: Is Trump's criticism of late-night comedians warranted, or is it a case of a powerful figure trying to silence dissent? Share your thoughts below, and let's keep the conversation going!
