Seth Meyers is the next late-night talk show host to find himself in President Donald Trump‘s crosshairs.
The Emmy winner, who has hosted “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on NBC since 2014, was the subject of a tirade from Trump, who suggested over the weekend it is “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 post 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 in which he mocked the President’s speech to members of the U.S. military. The former 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!!!”
Trump previously took aim at Meyers in August, floating a “rumor” he heard that NBC had extended Meyer’s contract. NBC signed a four-year extension with the funnyman last year.
“He has no Ratings, Talent, or Intelligence, and the Personality of an insecure child,” Trump wrote at the time. “So, why would Fake News NBC extend this dope’s contract. I don’t know, but I’ll definitely be finding out!!!”
Weeks earlier, the Republican party frontman minced no words about his distaste for the current late night TV landscape with a blistering social media post claiming to have inside knowledge about the fate of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on ABC and NBC’s “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.”
He wrote: “The word is, and it’s a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, [Jimmy] Fallon will be gone.”
