Seth Meyers couldn't help but troll Donald Trump in a monologue after the president's administration claimed the bruises on his hands are "consistent with minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking. Said the Saturday Night Live alum, "I just love that his followers have to somehow reconcile this idea that he's this powerful, strong man, but also he gets bruises if you touch him. He's the indestructible savior of America, but also he's basically a plum."

Seth Meyers also made fun of Donald Trump for his recent social media post celebrating six months in the White House. In the update, the president wrote that "time flies." Responded the comedian, "Does it, though? It's been six months of this term, but we already did four years of you. And even when this guy [Joe Biden] was president, you were still the president of every news cycle. … It feels like you've been president forever. I think it goes [George] Washington, [Thomas] Jefferson, [John] Adams and then you."

Seth Meyers may have to rein in the Donald Trump jokes, as the former star of
The Apprentice is going after late-night hosts after
Stephen Colbert's
The Late Show was canceled because Paramount needs Trump's approval for their merger with Skydance. In an update shared to Truth Social, the conservative applauded the move by CBS along with its parent company and threatened other prime-time personalities. "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," Trump wrote on social media. "These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid millions of dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT television. It's really good to see them go and I hope I played a major part in it!"
