Seth Meyers may be on hiatus, but his Late Night team delivered a reminder that some Trump jokes never go out of style. The comedian’s old-school takedown of Donald Trump’s White House ballroom obsession still lands, proving that sometimes the joke writes itself.
In the resurfaced monologue, Meyers mocked Trump’s plans for a 90,000-square-foot ballroom, questioning why the president was focused on creating a lavish addition instead of addressing the country’s bigger problems. The comedian took aim at the project’s massive size, rising costs, and the demolition plans that turned the proposed ballroom into a political battle.
“It would be bad enough if Trump’s biggest priority was building a gilded vanity project for himself,” Meyers joked. “But it’s so much worse because, to do it, he’s tearing down a somewhat well-known and beloved piece of property. You may have heard of it. The White House!”
Meyers also mocked Trump’s priorities, comparing him to a high school senior who had already been accepted into college and was more focused on planning prom than doing his homework. “That’s what you took away from your first term?” he cracked. "You left the country in ruins. There was a pandemic, a crime wave, a recession. You didn't want to fix any of that?"
The comedian then turned his attention to the price tag, noting that the ballroom was initially pitched as a privately funded project before Republicans pushed for taxpayer support.
After playing a clip of Trump ally Sen. Lindsey Graham arguing that private donations could be used for “china and stuff like that,” Meyers launched into a mock impression of the senator defending his dinnerware.
“They can use donations to buy china ’cause I ain’t giving ’em mine!” Meyers joked. “I need my china for my dinner parties, even though my meemaw keeps telling me no one’s ever gonna come to my parties.”
Meyers saved one of his sharpest jokes for Trump’s claim that the ballroom was “under budget” despite the project doubling in size. The comedian mocked the logic, comparing it to someone claiming they stuck to a diet while eating twice as many burgers. “If the price doubled, that’s not under budget,” Meyers joked.
