Late Night comedian Seth Meyers stirred up quite the reaction from his audience as he unleashed a torrent of profanity during his Thursday, February 29, segment on the conservative-majority U.S. Supreme Court’s decision regarding Donald Trump’s immunity claim.
Meyers’ fiery commentary not only highlighted the delay in Trump’s trial over the Jan. 6 insurrection but also left viewers both shocked and entertained.
The segment began on a seemingly optimistic note as Meyers remarked, “Now, the good news is we can all be happy that things have been moving so quickly. It’s only February. This is a trial about Jan. 6.”
However, the mood quickly shifted as Meyers’ tone intensified.
In just 10 seconds, Meyers dropped a total of eight F-bombs, expressing frustration over the delay in addressing the events of Jan. 6, which occurred three years ago.
He questioned why it took so long to initiate legal proceedings when the insurrection was broadcast on television for all to witness.
Meyers’ expletive-laden tirade concluded with a self-deprecating remark: “But then again, I’m not a lawyer, so fuuuuuuuuuck me.”
Despite the explicit language, the audience erupted in laughter and cheers, signaling their approval of Meyers’ unfiltered commentary.
The reaction to Meyers’ segment was swift and varied. While some viewers praised his candidness and applauded his willingness to address important issues with raw emotion, others criticized the use of profanity on national television.
Social media platforms buzzed with discussions about Meyers’ segment, with hashtags related to the incident trending across various platforms.
Political commentators and media outlets also weighed in on Meyers’ performance, with opinions ranging from admiration for his boldness to condemnation for his lack of restraint.
The incident sparked debates about the appropriate use of language in public discourse and the role of comedians in shaping political narratives.
