This story about Seth Meyers first appeared in the Miniseries/Movies issue of TheWrap Emmy magazine.
On his first episode hosting NBC’s “Late Night” in 2014, Seth Meyers told a self-effacing story about needing another man to change his wife’s tire while he stood by holding a little dog.
Three years later, he can no longer pull off jokes about being helpless and ineffectual — because each night, he stands up to the most powerful man in the world. Skipping hysterics, Meyers uses Donald Trump’s own words against him, with the precise degree of absurdity our present predicament demands.
