Seth Meyers is known for his sharp jabs, so when the US president criticized him for joking about his idea of steam catapults on US aircraft carriers, he hit back.
“Look, in general, I try to live by the New York credo. When someone rants and raves about you, ignore them. Chances are they’ll move on and ramble on about something else,” the host says on his recent late-night show.
He continues, “But there’s one thing I just have to address: You can say I’m not talented, you can say I’m deranged, but I’m not the one who keeps talking about catapults on aircraft carriers. You’re the one who keeps talking about catapults on aircraft carriers!”
Earlier, Donald Trump, in an article on Truth Social, angrily declared that Seth was “the least talented person to perform live in the history of television”, describing him as “a truly deranged lunatic”.
It is worth noting that since the start of his second presidency, the US president has clashed with several late-night talk show hosts who have a history of criticizing him, including Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon.
