Seth Meyers roasts Trump campaign's 'disgraced' new recruit Billy McFarland, Internet says 'con artists being friends'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Seth Meyers, known for his razor-sharp wit and incisive commentary, recently aimed at a surprising development in the Trump campaign: the hiring of Billy McFarland, infamous organizer of the failed Fyre Festival.

Meyers didn't hold back, delivering a scathing critique that left audiences both laughing and contemplating the state of American politics.

Meyers began by skewering former President Trump's attempt to distance himself from Project 2025, a controversial political roadmap from a conservative think tank.

"Former President Trump attempted to distance himself last week from a conservative think tank's controversial Project 2025 political roadmap and said I know nothing about Project 2025. I have no idea who's behind it," Meyers claimed.

Meyers, however, wasn't buying it. "When Trump is pretending to know something, he's a pretty good liar. But when he's pretending he doesn't know something, he's a terrible liar," Meyers quipped, referencing Trump's infamous denials about Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death.

The comedic spotlight then shifted to Billy McFarland, the disgraced organizer behind the disastrous Fyre Festival, who has reportedly found employment with the Trump campaign.

Meyers couldn't resist a dig as he said, "Disgraced Fyre Festival organizer Billy McFarland is reportedly working for the Trump campaign, which is the first good news Biden has gotten in weeks." The audience erupted in laughter.

Meyers further lampooned Trump's insinuation that Hunter Biden is "calling the shots," humorously suggesting that the shots in question involve Yeager, Sambuca, and Fireball—a reference that elicited knowing chuckles from the audience.

"In a new interview, former President Trump said that he has heard that President Biden's son, Hunter, is 'calling the shots,' specifically, 'Yeager, Sambuca, and Fireball.'"

President Biden also came under Meyers' scrutiny, particularly for his recent comment likening Trump to George Wallace, the segregationist governor of Alabama in the 1960s. "He makes George Wallace look like a patriot. That's right. He's fighting those age allegations with a joke about the governor of Alabama in 1963," Meyers observed.

The audience responded with laughter. Meyers didn't stop there, adding, "He also said Trump's marriage is as healthy as Zsa Zsa's and Conrad's."
