“Late Night” host Seth Meyers trashed President Donald Trump’s rambling election conspiracy theory speech on Wednesday, wondering if the 80-year-old commander in chief was somehow inebriated during the primetime address.
“So the president’s poll numbers are bad, which is why he addressed the nation in primetime last week and unveiled his detailed plan for lowering prices, ending the war, expanding health care and I’m just fucking with you,” Meyers said. “It was about an election he lost. Let me check to see if I have the time right — six years ago.”
Meyers played a clip from last week’s speech where Trump claimed China somehow compromised voter data from the 2020 presidential election.
“And this happened in 2020, you say?” Meyers said. “Man, whoever was president back then must feel like an idiot right now. Also, I’ve never asked this of a president before. Are you drunk, bro?”
Meyers added that Trump sounded like a frat bro 10 beers deep, complaining about his girlfriend’s friends.
He then mocked the fact that the voter data Trump claimed China got hold of, including names and addresses of registered voters, is already publicly available information.
“Oh, my God, names, addresses, phone — did China hack the phone book?” Meyers said.
