Slaven Vlasic / Getty Images Before the video could end, David jumped back in to say Trump's behavior is "like 18 times the worst behavior one has witnessed, ever, anywhere. It's worse. Think of the worst thing that you've ever seen humans accomplish. This is so much worse." Michael Loccisano / Getty Images On Nov. 15, Trump shared a Truth Social post that read, "Seth Meyers is suffering from an incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). He was viewed last night in an uncontrollable rage, likely due to the fact that his 'show' is a Ratings DISASTER. Aside from everything else, Meyers has no talent, and NBC should fire him, IMMEDIATELY!" The Washington Post / The Washington Post via Getty Images, truthsocial.com Surprisingly, this wasn't the first time the president had criticized Seth's late-night show. In response, Seth addressed the president's outburst during his "A Closer Look" segment. "You guys! They said my name on TV! It's not often you hear the name Seth Meyers on TV before midnight," Seth joked. "Now, as I've said before, I prefer to handle these situations the way you handle an angry driver who honks and flips you off on the highway â€" you just ignore them â€" unless you're in New Jersey, then, technically, that's a marriage proposal." NBC And that's that! If the president responds to David Letterman, which is very likely, we'll let you know.
