It's no secret that President Donald Trump has a penchant for firing off controversial tweets, but this time, he's taken aim at a late-night comedian, sparking a heated exchange. And it's not the first time!
The latest target of Trump's social media tirade is Seth Meyers, who found himself in the crosshairs after mocking the president's fixation on catapult technology. In a recent episode, Meyers poked fun at Trump's obsession with electromagnetic catapults, comparing him to Wile E. Coyote. But here's where it gets personal...
Trump didn't take the jokes lightly and unleashed a series of scathing remarks on Truth Social, labeling Meyers a 'deranged lunatic' and suggesting his jokes were 'probably illegal.' He even attacked Meyers' talent, claiming he was the 'least talented person to "perform" live in history.' Ouch!
But Meyers wasn't one to back down. He responded during his show, 'Late Night With Seth Meyers,' by calling out Trump's own obsession with catapults. He played a supercut of Trump's speeches, showcasing the president's frequent use of the word 'catapult.'
This isn't the first time Trump has criticized Meyers. In January, he called him 'Marble Mouth Meyers,' and in August, he threatened to investigate NBC for extending Meyers' contract. And this is the part most people miss: Trump's attacks on Meyers are part of a broader pattern of targeting late-night hosts, including Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, and Stephen Colbert.
So, is Trump's criticism of Meyers fair game, or does it cross a line? Is it a valid exercise of free speech or an abuse of power? You decide! Share your thoughts in the comments below, and let's keep the conversation going.
