'Trump whines about usual BS': Seth Meyers pokes fun at ex-POTUS over his closing argument in civil fraud trial

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In an unexpected turn of events, former President Donald Trump was granted the opportunity to speak during the closing arguments of his $370 million civil fraud trial in New York.

The judge's decision allowed Trump to make his case, leading to a blend of legal proceedings and comedic commentary. Seth Meyers, the host of 'Late Night with Seth Meyers', wasted no time delivering a humorous analysis of Trump's courtroom appearance.

Meyers began his segment, 'A Closer Look', by highlighting the trial's significance that could potentially impact Trump's business empire and personal wealth.

The comedian pointed out the contrasting expressions on Trump's face and New York Attorney General Letitia James's smile, giving the audience a visual cue about the trial's trajectory.

"As a general rule, you never want to look over at the prosecutor in your court case and see them making this face, especially when you're used to lawyers who only make this face," Meyers quipped, emphasizing the seriousness of the legal proceedings.

The judge had initially denied Trump's request to deliver his closing arguments, citing concerns about adhering to basic rules. However, in an unexpected twist, the judge later relented and granted Trump five minutes to address the court.

Meyers, in his signature style, highlighted the irony of Trump's desire to present his arguments.

"Trump had already asked to deliver his own closing arguments in the case, but the judge refused because Trump wouldn't agree to follow basic rules like sticking to material and relevant information," Meyers remarked, setting the stage for the comedic commentary.

From mocking Donald Trump's whining to narrating courtroom absurdities

Describing Trump's courtroom appearance, Meyers sarcastically remarked, "And Trump, of course, used it to whine about his usual BS." The comedian went on to playfully mimic the hypothetical reading of Trump's remarks by a reporter, creating a hilarious narrative that captured the essence of Trump's monologue.

"It's always so weird to hear reporters read Trump's remarks. It's like listening to a tourist read a menu in a language they don't speak," Meyers joked, bringing a touch of levity to the serious legal proceedings.

Seth Meyers expertly dissected and lampooned Donald Trump's closing argument in the civil fraud trial, adding humor to a significant legal moment.

As Meyers wrapped up his segment, he humorously urged, "Back to you, and please don't ever come back to me," leaving his audience in stitches and highlighting his comedic prowess in addressing current events.
