Trump Contradicts Experts on Coronavirus Treatment After Months of Denial: A Closer Look- Late Night with Seth Meyers

Late Night with Seth Meyers

He boasted that he couldshoot someone, and he wouldn't lose any support. Now he is responsible for thousands of deaths, and he hasn't lost any support.

[jakesanservino]

What makes me sick is that people think he is doing a good job on this. Remember he called this a hoax, then downplayed it, and now won’t give ventilators to NY. What’s next?

[strohhut_tufi]

If he gets re-elected I have no more hope for the US. He was already one of the biggest mistakes in human history

[susannadewey]

LOL. Professional liars praising each other at their talent at gaslighting, distraction and obfuscation. Right out loud.

[nwbklr]

Whenever he says, “A lot of people are saying...” Literally NOBODY is saying what he’s about to say. 😂

[xhosagibran]

There should be repercussions for people’s who blatantly spread lies.

Remember when he said he can shoot someone in New York. Well
he's killing the whole nation at this point

[evankalkbrenner]

“They’re our ventilators, not the states’.” Good thing most Americans don’t live in a state, then.

[seanomaille]

STAND UP TO HIM at the press conferences. America needs a Senator Welch moment from the McCarthy hearings. "Have you finally no sense of decency? Haven't you done enough damage"

[teresaamanfu]

The sad thing is that the press is having a conversation with him As though they expect something reasonable to come out of his mouth. Just stop doing that. He’s not capable of being rational.

[sealand]

The virus finally goes away in April 2023. Trump: "I told you it would go away in April."

[roryfraser]

I'm from Australia and I only like to watch trump through this platform of comedy, because otherwise I feel a genuine sadness for this nation. How he can lie in the face of society every single day without anyone in America having the ability to stop it? Bless up America, you have a long road ahead.

[raymondkymsuttle]

Fact: The hot weather didn't stop COVID from spreading in the southern hemisphere where it's been SUMMER!!!!

[moksie]

Imagine being a Trump supporter denying everything he's said that's recorded, or tweeted by that neurosyphilis suffering sociopath. They're sick

[jayw]

Can these reporters bring in recordings of trump saying things they ask him questions about? Just to see how he reacts

[ginao]

Someone should tell Trump that it’s summer in the Southern Hemisphere and Corona is spreading and thriving quite happily in our hot Aussie weather

[Theforeveraloneguy]

Why is everyone so afraid of him!? No one is holding him accountable! He can say and do anything without repercussions.

[jeffreyhamilton]

“What have we got to lose” was the same rationale many used before voting for Trump...

[Bethgael]

He only suggested that medication because he wanted to prove he has the best words because he can say hydroxychloroquine. He clearly practiced it very, very hard.

[marcustaylor]

Oh my god! I can't express how EVIL this administration is. This isn't incompetence, this is sociopathic hatred of humanity except for THEIR people.
