“Late Night” host Seth Meyers on Tuesday clowned President Donald Trump for making the “weird” White House turkey pardoning tradition even “weirder.”
Trump — in remarks at the Rose Garden ceremony — claimed that former President Joe Biden’s turkey pardons last year were “totally invalid,” as were other pardons besides his pardon of his son Hunter Biden. He also insulted Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) and rambled about drug dealers, gang members and murders.
“I think those turkeys were standing there being like, ‘Just fucking kill us. Put us out of our misery,’” Meyers quipped.
“Also, don’t say the word ‘Hunter’ near some turkeys, you’re going to freak them out! They don’t follow politics, they don’t know what you’re talking about, they’re going to think this whole thing is a trap.”
Meyers moved on to how Trump made the ceremony much “weirder” with his talk of the turkeys’ diets.
“Despite their size, [Health] Secretary [Robert F.] Kennedy [Jr.] has formally certified that these are the first-ever MAHA turkeys,” said Trump, referring to RFK Jr.’s “healthy” lifestyle movement.
He continued, “In other words, they could be fat, but they’re still MAHA. They’ve been fattened on a steady diet of grass, beef, to allow the smoothies and all the other things they have been eating for this occasion.”
Meyers joked that it sounded like Trump still planned to eat the turkeys before claiming the birds may have gotten “suspicious” because only one was present at the ceremony.
“Couldn’t keep track of two fucking turkeys?” Meyers remarked.
