Seth Meyers took aim at Donald Trump's recent comments about Canadian wildfires during his Late Night monologue, quipping that the president's claim the cost is 'incalculable' means he didn't actually write the post himself. The comedian also tackled Trump's World Cup remarks, Little League champions, and more.
Seth Meyers on Trump's Wildfire Post
After wildfires caused air quality issues across parts of the United States, Trump criticized Canada for not taking preventive measures. In a social media post, he wrote, 'The cost is incalculable.' Meyers responded, 'So he didn’t write that post.' The joke highlighted Trump's tendency to exaggerate or outsource his social media content.

World Cup and Sports Commentary
Meyers also discussed Trump's comments on the World Cup, where the president claimed players don't work hard enough. Trump thanked Rudy Giuliani's son, Andrew, for helping organize the tournament in the U.S. 'It was already the biggest sporting event in the world,' Meyers pointed out. 'It’s not like he sold 7 million pickleball tickets.' The host later showed a photo of Trump with the Little League softball champions, joking, 'Wow, still chasing that World Cup final high, huh?'
Comparing Work Ethic: Trump vs. Ronaldo
| Figure | Claim | Meyers' Retort |
|---|---|---|
| Donald Trump | Wishes he could switch places with Cristiano Ronaldo for a month because Ronaldo's life is easier | 'Watching Ronaldo run full-speed up and down a soccer pitch and you’re like, “That guy doesn’t work as hard as President Trump.”' |
| Cristiano Ronaldo | Professional footballer known for intense training | Meyers implied Trump underestimates Ronaldo's effort |
| Melania Trump | Adds 'Or longer' to Trump's wish to switch | Meyers: '“Or longer”, yelled Melania.' |
Other Late Night Jabs
The American Heart Association released a study saying five cups of coffee a day is safe. Meyers showed a photo of Trump sleeping and joked, 'But you know, maybe start with one.' A separate study found that 34% of people who eat in their car choose easier food options. 'That makes sense, it’s probably not the time or the place for tapas,' Meyers said.
A German man broke a Guinness World Record by popping 60 balloons in 30 seconds with a plunger. Meyers imagined his wife asking, 'So the toilet is still clogged?' He also mocked Trump's claim of being 'No. 1' on TikTok by referencing a fictional character: '“Guess again, bitch,” said Jimothy.'
