John Oliver and Seth Meyers being interviewed by Jimmy Kimmel is as chaotic as youd expect

Seth Meyers dissected Donald Trump's two-day White House visit with Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan, focusing on the president's controversial $400 million ballroom project. During Monday night's Late Night, Meyers used his deep dive segment to analyze the state dinner event. He warned attendees to avoid the "beautiful curtain in the back" for a peek at the construction site, comparing it to the opening scene of a horror movie in an antique store.

Meyers questioned the necessity of the tour when Trump had previously mentioned the ballroom would be situated atop an underground military complex due to a lawsuit filed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The trust sought to halt the ballroom construction, which required congressional authorization, but work could continue for safety, security, and structural integrity purposes.

"Isn't this ballroom supposed to include a bunch of top-secret military facilities?" Meyers asked on Late Night. "And if it does, maybe don't do the tour with the heads of foreign governments."
