During an NBC interview, President Trump walked out after being questioned about the legitimacy of the 2020 election and a recent California vote. The interview, hosted by Kristen Welker on ‘Meet the Press,’ became headline news.
Jon Stewart’s Take
Jon Stewart commented on the incident, describing it as President Trump’s “worst nightmare: a woman who won’t stop asking pertinent questions.” Stewart added that Trump’s behavior seemed like “the hissy-fit of an incredibly fragile man-baby.”
Remarks from Late-Night Hosts
Seth Meyers humorously stated, “President Trump stormed out of an interview, though ‘storm’ might be exaggerating. It was more like a slow-moving fog bank.” He further quipped, “I guess he doesn’t like it when the questions are harder than, ‘Is this a camel?’”
Jimmy Kimmel added another jab: “This is why he mostly dated women who don’t speak English.” Meyers chimed in again, “Trump told Kristen Welker, ‘Let’s call it quits, thank you, darling,’ a line usually reserved for his wives.”
N.B.A. Finals and Trump’s Attendance
President Trump’s attendance at the N.B.A. Finals Game 3 sparked additional jests. Seth Meyers remarked on the expected security measures, noting that New York sports fans are not known for patience. He also referenced Trump missing his son’s wedding but attending the game: “What a knife twist.”
Jimmy Kimmel commented on the priority Trump gave to attending the game, despite his busy schedule. Meyers joked about anticipated security checks by stating, “Get there early to make it to your seat for Game 4.”
Jimmy Fallon contributed with humor, imagining Trump courtside, “Officials were afraid the players would start dribbling his head,” and added a visual of Trump with Marco Rubio on his shoulders.
