"Trump Responds to Seth Meyers ‘Ban’ by (What Else) Insulting His Ratings
by Josh Feldman | 7:50 pm, June 15th, 2016


Seth Meyers tore into Donald Trump last night for implying some nefarious things about President Obama and terrorism. But he also lampooned The Donald for revoking press access to WaPo and joke-banned Trump from his show in solidarity.

Well, believe it or not, Trump actually sent out a statement, obtained by TheWrap, firing back at Meyers by going after (what else) his ratings:

“He has begged me to do the show for the last two years. I have told him emphatically ‘no.’ I only like doing shows with good ratings, which as everybody knows, I only make better (by a lot).”

Now, Meyers has actually been doing fairly well in the ratings and has been beating out his 12:35 am competitors (James Corden and Nightline.)

But perhaps the real reason Trump won’t come on is that before last year, Meyers delivered arguably the most seismic Trump takedown to date at the 2011 White House Correspondents Dinner."

1. Myers: "Trump says he's going to run for President as a Republican, which is quite a surprise. . .

Everyone thought he was going to run as a joke."
