Keeping Trump up at night

LLOYD BISHOP NBC

THE "sick rumor" about Seth Meyers? Old news.

As the GOP breaks the rules to placate their leader and the Dems play by rules that no longer exist, late-night television is one of the few public platforms left that’s bold enough to challenge President Trump's policy on a daily basis.

From Jimmy Kimmel to “The Daily Show” to Stephen Colbert (whose contract won't be renewed by the nervous folks at Paramount), calling out the dangerous actions of the bully in the White House has by default become a public service of late-night TV and its political satirists.

PRESIDENT Trump recently addressed a "sick rumor" that Seth Meyers' latenight contract was extended. The host's contract was extended in May 2024.

Early Wednesday morning, Trump attempted to spark a new battle against his joke-slinging foes when he took to his own social media site, Truth Social, to address a "sick rumor" that wasn't a rumor at all.

"Fake News NBC extended the contract of one of the least talented Late Night television hosts out there, Seth Meyers," Trump wrote.
