On Wednesday night, Seth Meyers made a comparison between President Trump and Steve Carrell's character from the film "Anchorman." However, after Trump made comments during his latest rally, Meyers is reconsidering his choice. During his "A Closer Look" segment on Thursday night, Meyers again criticized the president for suggesting that Iran "nuking" Los Angeles or San Diego would cause trauma.
He pointed out that it was odd to single out San Diego. Previously, Meyers had likened Trump to Brick from "Anchorman," but he now believes the president more closely resembles Ron Burgundy. The comparison was reinforced by a clip from the movie, featuring Carrell's character boldly declaring "Go f–k yourself, San Diego." In another part of the segment, Meyers mocked Trump for boasting about filling an arena for a midterm rally, despite the cameras revealing empty seats in the upper decks.
Meyers emphasized that presidents rarely hold rallies because they are too busy governing. He urged Trump to try it, given his time constraints. The full "A Closer Look" segment is available in the video above.
