Seth Meyers is over the Bernie or Bust movement

In his new Late Night segment, "Hey!" (spoken in a stern dad voice), Seth Meyers admonished members of the Bernie or Bust movement, letting them know that "the house is on fire," and they need to "stop crying because we're not putting it out with your hose."

When he tuned into the Democratic National Convention on Monday night, "there was more white booing than the Casper movie," Meyers said. "I know you're Bernie or Bust, but the results are in. Bust won." It may seem like the right time to throw a tantrum, but with Donald Trump as the Republican nominee, "we're on the cusp of electing a racist demagogue," Meyers said. "That never ends well. I don't know what class you ditched to go to those Bernie rallies, but I have a feeling it was history."

While some Sanders supporters might not be friends with anyone voting for Trump, "the crazy uncle you only see at Thanksgiving" is, Meyers warns, and "it's about to be Thanksgiving all day, every day." Although he did loosen up enough to tell Sanders fans they should "be proud" of what they did to change the Democratic Party, Meyers really, really just wants the Bernie or Bust crowd to simmer down.
