Late night hosts aren't scandalized by Trump getting booed and heckled at the World Series

President Trump attended Game 5 of the World Series on Sunday, and he did not receive a warm welcome from the fans at Nationals Park, The Late Show noted Monday, adding in a singalong for extra flair.

"It has been a long time since Donald Trump faced anything other than a crowd of hand-picked supporters — and I have a feeling it's going to be a while before he does that again," Stephen Colbert said. Yes, "the president of the United States got booed while watching the national pastime," he said, comparing that humiliation to "getting kicked in the nuts by an apple pie."

Jimmy Kimmel gave a play-by-play of Trump's reaction to being booed. "Watch how happy he is when he notices he's onscreen," he said on Kimmel Live, "and then the boos come in." Clearly "it was not a friendly crowd for Trump, there were a number of 'Impeach' signs in the crowd and the fans even broke into their own version of one of his favorite chants," Kimmel said. "You know he's going to be throwing himself a big rally in Alabama after that to make him feel great again. But it was a better weekend than most of them for the president," he added, because Islamic State leader "Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is Bagh-dead-i now."

This is just "another sign of how much of a roller coaster Trump's presidency has been," Seth Meyers said on Late Night. Between Friday and Sunday night, "he went from a low of his personal lawyer butt-dialing a reporter to the high of killing the world's most-wanted terrorist, and then that same day, back to the low of getting booed at the World Series."

After the crowd started booing, "Trump turned to Melania and was like, 'Wow, they really don't like you,'" Jimmy Fallon joked at The Tonight Show. "Some people thought heckling Trump was disrespectful, then every outfielder who's every played in New York, Boston, or Philly was like, 'Toughen up, buttercup. I'm getting hit with D-cell batteries for nine innings.'" Watch below. Peter Weber
