Late Night Show Host Pokes Fun at Trump's Record-Low Approval Rating

Mocking Trump's Recent Actions

Seth Meyers, the host of The Late Show, recently took a jab at President Donald Trump's recent actions. During his show, Meyers criticized Trump for his lack of substantial reasoning behind attacking Iran, stating that it was 'not a good enough reason to keep a war going.' He also quipped about Trump’s suggestion to change grass in Washington DC parks, asking, 'Does that mean grass can also get dementia?'

Low Approval Rating and Press Criticisms

The late-night host highlighted the growing gap between Trump's wealth and the struggles of American citizens. According to Meyers, despite claiming during his campaign that he would make America affordable again on day one, prices have increased instead. This has led to a new all-time low in approval ratings, currently standing at 32%. In response to criticism from the press about affordability and high prices, Trump famously retorted, 'You’re the president! Of course they're asking you why prices are so high!'

Comparing Trump's Image with Previous Leaders

Meyers also addressed the contrast between past presidents and Trump’s image. He pointed out that during Obama's presidency, any mention of a tan suit by a Republican would have caused an uproar, while now there are no such concerns about Joe Biden looking 'like a guy that was just about to get pickpocketed.' The host emphasized how the same group of right-wing pundits relentlessly accused the Biden family of various crimes despite their relative modesty.

In concluding his segment, Meyers observed, 'Madam Web has a higher audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes,' drawing attention to Trump's poor approval ratings. He further highlighted that most Americans oppose the Iran war and want it to end, adding that Trump’s stance on the conflict has been described as erratic and insane by many.
