Seth Meyers still can't believe Trump told a crowd in West Virginia he 'fell in love' with Kim Jong Un

President Trump does not want to talk about Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Seth Meyers said on Monday's Late Night, and that's one reason why he held his latest surreal press conference earlier in the day.

Trump was focusing on the new trade deal with Canada and Mexico, and when asked about Kavanaugh, he shot down the reporter and scolded her for the question. Meyers played a montage of all the different times Trump was rude to female reporters during the press conference, including when he accused one of "not thinking," leading Meyers to ask his own question. "How much of a sexist dick can you possibly be?" he said, as an image of Kavanaugh appeared on the screen next to him. "It's almost like he saw someone else getting attention for acting like a maniac on TV and thought, 'I could top that.'"

During another point in the press conference, Trump mused that one of his "only good traits" is the fact that he does not drink. "Can you imagine if I had what a mess I'd be?" he said. "I'd be the world's worst." Trump didn't get any argument from Meyers. "What's amazing about that joke is that inherent in the premise is Trump admitting that he already sucks," he said.

Meyers didn't just focus on the press conference, though — he had to poke at Trump for a statement he made during a rally in West Virginia over the weekend, when he said he "fell in love" with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un due to "beautiful letters" he sent. "Man, if you told me I would live to witness a Republican president telling a crowd in West Virginia that he was in love with a North Korean dictator, I would have said, 'I'm sorry buddy, I don't have a dollar and this is my stop.'"
