Late-Night TV Hosts Have A Field Day With The Trump/Kanye Summit
Jimmy Kimmel said the jokes just wrote themselves following President Donald Trump’s wild meeting with rapper Kanye West on Thursday.
It appears the other late-night comedians agreed as they all piled on with their own amusing takes on the encounter.
The “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host imagined what Trump was thinking during the chat:
Trevor Noah of “The Daily Show” was left momentarily speechless:

The show also tweeted this zinger:

The “Late Night with Seth Meyers” team reimagined what West told Trump:

“Full Frontal with Samantha Bee,” meanwhile, used the opportunity to talk about “three things that are more important” than the West/Trump summit:
