Seth Meyers is actually down for former President Donald Trump’s smart-adjacent schtick.
“I like when Trump tries to convince us that he hangs out with academics, like when he said English professors love how he rambles incoherently as his rallies,” the “Late Night” comedian said Tuesday.
Trump, at a rally in August, boasted:
You know, I do the weave. You know what the weave is? I’ll talk about like nine different things, and they all come back brilliantly together and it’s like, and friends of mine that are, like, English professors, they say, ‘It’s the most brilliant thing I’ve ever seen.’
Meyers suggested, though, that Trump “probably just thinks anyone with an English accent is an English professor.”
“Some football hooligan probably once screamed, ‘Give the wankers hell, Donald!’ and he was like, ‘I will, professor, I will,’” he joked.
