Seth Meyers mocked Donald Trump’s lengthy Easter Sunday rant on social media, in which Trump both wished people a happy Easter but also launched attacks against prosecutors and judges investigating him.
Meyers noted Trump posted 70 times that day and joked that meth eggs must be in the Trump family Easter baskets.
“He posted 70 times on Easter!” Meyers said. “What’s in the baskets at the Trump family Easter egg hunt? Cadbury meth eggs?”
“Here is Donald Trump’s Easter greeting in its entirety. I hope you’re ready for this, because it’s insane,” he added.
“The worst part? Stole that from a Hallmark card,” Meyers joked.
He read excerpts and said it was perhaps Trump’s most deranged online post yet, even questioning if someone would seek help for a friend who sent such a message.
“That Easter rant might be the most deranged thing Trump has ever posted online, which is saying something because he once misspelled his own name,” he added. “Just put yourself in a place where a friend or loved one sent you a text like this. Would you immediately alert your entire family and urge them to seek help? Or would you write back and say, ‘You’ve got my vote in November!’”
Jimmy Kimmel also lampooned Trump’s habit of mixing vicious attacks with holiday greetings.
Meyers and Kimmel both ridiculed Trump’s social media behavior and its incongruity with the holidays.
