Seth Meyers’ Cut To Side Camera About Trump Is Hilarious, Yet Terrifying

Seth Meyers looked off-camera to lament the fact that Donald Trump’s reported praise of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler likely won’t have any effect on the outcome of the 2024 election.

The “Late Night” host on Thursday tackled claims from Trump’s longest-serving White House chief of staff, John Kelly, that the former president said Hitler had done some good things, a development which has largely been shrugged off by MAGA Republicans.

Meyers began, “The political world is still reeling from reports that Trump repeatedly praised Hitler and Hitler’s generals.”

He then turned to the side camera to talk about the truth of the matter:

“And I know when I say reeling, no one’s actually reeling. They’re mostly just shrugging because we live in a nightmare world where this has somehow become normal and everyone just goes about their day knowing that the most powerful person on earth could once again be a guy who thinks Hitler was cool because it’s just another piece of content we all scroll past on our magic little distraction boxes between cooking trends and TikTok dances and dogs wearing sunglasses. But I mean, come on, look at this guy. He’s so cute. He’s wearing aviators just like a person. And it’s funny because they’re almost as big as his head, and it looks like he’s at a pool party, instead of raise the roof, the bubble says raise of the woof. And oh, man, I’m gonna send this to my family group chat.”

Meyers then interrupted himself, “Wait a second. What was I talking about?”

“Oh, right. Trump praising Hitler. Fuck,” he answered, turning back to the main camera.
