The war of words between Seth Meyers and Donald Trump intensifies, but this time, it's personal!
Seth Meyers, the renowned late-night host, has had enough of Trump's scathing remarks. In a recent episode of 'Late Night with Seth Meyers,' he fired back at the former president's online tirade, which labeled him as 'deranged' and 'talentless.' But here's where it gets controversial: Trump's outburst was triggered by Meyers' mockery of his Asia trip, where he discussed... catapults?
Yes, you read that right. Trump's fascination with catapults on aircraft carriers sparked a heated exchange. Meyers, known for his witty criticism of Trump, couldn't resist poking fun at the president's unusual interest. But Trump didn't take it lightly, lashing out at Meyers on Truth Social.
Meyers, unphased, decided to address the elephant in the room. He acknowledged Trump's criticism but turned the tables by highlighting the government's failure to address pressing issues. 'You can call me untalented and deranged, but I'm not the one endlessly talking about catapults. You are!' he quipped.
This isn't the first time Trump has taken aim at Meyers. In August, he criticized Meyers' contract renewal, attacking his ratings and intelligence. But Meyers, exercising his First Amendment right, stood his ground.
The feud escalated when late-night TV faced a free speech crisis. Sinclair and Nexstar Media Group's decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel's show from ABC affiliates sparked concerns. Kimmel's comments about the MAGA gang and a tragic murder case led to his suspension, causing an uproar among fellow hosts, including Meyers, who defended Kimmel and criticized Trump's interference.
Meyers, in a bold statement, pointed out the real issues: 'Working families struggle while you renovate your bathroom and build your ballroom.' He emphasized the government's inaction during the shutdown, affecting millions of Americans who rely on SNAP benefits.
But will Trump listen? Meyers jokingly predicted another Trump post about his obsession with White House bathrooms. This ongoing clash raises questions: Is this a battle of egos, or a fight for freedom of speech? What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments, and let's discuss!
