“The president of the United States now wants to fire Seth Meyers. And I thought: This is simply delightful. How do you think this is going to end?”, David Letterman said.

He said he had “never been so proud” of Meyers, who now hosts the show he once led on NBC.

“This is actually our old show. We used to do this show, and he does a magical job. But remember, Seth, things happen. You know what I’m saying?”, he remarked.

Letterman’s comment refers to a statement Trump made on November 18, when he was asked about his negotiations with Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Letterman reflected on the current U.S. administration and how it is “simply a spectacle of idiocy.” “It is simply fantastic. It has no limits. And it is endless. He is our dictator. He is not going anywhere,” he declared.

“It is like 18 times the worst behavior anyone has ever witnessed anywhere. Think of the worst thing you have ever seen humans do. This is much worse,” David Letterman said.
