On a recent episode of
Late Night with Seth Meyers, Seth Meyers joked about MAGA influencers and commentators' rising interest in Jeffrey Epstein's crimes after the Department of Justice claimed there is no evidence of him keeping a "client list." Joked the
Saturday Night Live alum, "Right-wing media is spending more time talking about Jeffrey Epstein than they are about Donald Trump. I just hope they don't get their wires crossed and combine talking points." He then shared a pair of merging clips proclaiming, "Jeffrey Epstein is going to win the Nobel Peace Prize." (Israel's Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu recently
nominated Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize.)

Seth Meyers played a clip of Donald Trump snapping at reporters for asking about Jeffrey Epstein during a White House press briefing, calling it a "desecration" to "waste time" discussing the late scandalized financier. "Oh, very nice acting," Meyers joked. "Very nice. I mean, forget the Nobel. I think you're finally gonna get that Emmy."

Seth Meyers joked about how Donald Trump often discusses his past feuds but wasn't interested in sharing more information about Jeffrey Epstein — despite promising to reveal the Justice Department's findings during his 2024 presidential campaign. "Yeah, how dare you fixate on a story from the past, something Donald Trump has never done," Meyers said sarcastically. "He's focused on the issues of today, not the 2020 election, or the Russia investigation, or Hunter Biden's laptop or Hillary Clinton's email server, or Joe Biden's autopen, or Rosie O'Donnell making fun of him, or his ratings for The Apprentice, which ended in 2015, or deceased golfer Arnold Palmer's unusually large p****, which, by the way, we have yet to see definitive proof of!"

Donald Trump has a long history of publicly complaining about the Emmys due to the fact that his long-running show The Apprentice never came out on top. "The Emmys are all politics, that's why, despite nominations, The Apprentice never won — even though it should have many times over," he wrote on X back in 2012. He later added, "Emmys telecast is way down [and] lowest telecast on record among young adults. Emmys have no credibility — Should have nominated Apprentice again!"
