Late-night hosts spoke about the controversial behavior of a small group of Democrats<\/a> and Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s continued destruction of the White House.<\/p>\n

Stephen Colbert<\/p>\n

On The Late Show, Stephen Colbert<\/a> spoke about the vote to end the federal government shutdown which has seen some Democrats choosing to cave to Republican demands without restoring the healthcare subsidies which were initially threatened.<\/p>\n

Chuck Schumer told his party he would give the deal neither a blessing nor a curse and would give no steer on how to vote.<\/p>\n

Colbert joked that this was \u201cbold leadership\u201d and commented on Schumer\u2019s \u201cfailure\u201d in the situation.<\/p>\n

The shutdown has caused major chaos at airports as air traffic controllers were being unpaid for so long that many of them stopped coming to work.<\/p>\n

On social media, Trump attacked them, saying they would be \u201csubstantially docked\u201d and he would hold \u201ca negative mark\u201d at least in his mind against their record.<\/p>\n

\u201cA negative mark in that mind?\u201d Colbert quipped. \u201cYou know what, I\u2019ll take my chances.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also wrote that he wanted them to be \u201cquickly replaced by true patriots\u201d to which Colbert responded: \u201cMaybe I\u2019m alone, but I don\u2019t care if the guy landing my plane is a true patriot.\u201d<\/p>\n

He called Trump \u201can old nepo-billionaire who simply does not understand how hard it is for regular people to survive these days\u201d.<\/p>\n

This week also saw that regular people are not happy with the state of living, with a consumer satisfaction survey falling to 52.3%, the worst ever score dating back to 1951.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsumers have not felt this bad since we fed our babies cigarettes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

This week also saw Trump tout a 50-year mortgage in a supposed bid to help those struggling to afford home ownership, yet a study showed that interest would almost double from the standard 30-year mortgage.<\/p>\n

Colbert called it \u201ca big dumb policy that fixes nothing\u201d.<\/p>\n

He also warned that a new 107% tariff could lead to Italian pasta disappearing from shelves. \u201cWe are officially in a pasta-mergency,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Colbert joked that Trump\u2019s destruction of the White House\u2019s East Wing was \u201cto build a massive compensation for his weird tiny penis\u201d before moving on to his latest addition: labelling the Oval Office.<\/p>\n

The host claimed that the font being used was called \u201cluxury assisted living\u201d before showing that when you Google it, the same font that comes up.<\/p>\n

Seth Meyers<\/p>\n

On Late Night, Seth Meyers<\/a> started by talking about the House speaker, Mike Johnson, ordering Congress to return to Capitol Hill for the vote.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure they would if only the flights weren\u2019t all grounded,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

This week also saw Trump write \u201cLess crime more Trump\u201d on social media. \u201cLess crime sounds great but how could there be more Trump?\u201d Meyers asked, before adding: \u201cWe\u2019re maxed out on Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last week saw Joe Biden speak for 30 minutes at a fundraising dinner. Meyers expressed surprise that it was so short, joking that \u201che usually speaks that long to the valet\u201d.<\/p>\n

Transportation secretary and former Real World contestant Sean Duffy warned Americans that ongoing issues over flights might mean that many will miss celebrating the holidays with their families.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh no, I was so excited to discuss that Zohran win with my uncle,\u201d Meyers said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Late-night hosts spoke about the controversial behavior of a small group of Democrats and Donald Trump\u2019s continued destruction…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":132085,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[156,111,139,69,437],"class_list":{"0":"post-132084","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-new-zealand","10":"tag-newzealand","11":"tag-nz","12":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132084","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132084"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132084\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/132085"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132084"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132084"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132084"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
