Seth Meyers wasn’t buying reports out of a new book that Donald Trump once praised Adolf Hitler for doing “some good things,” joking Tuesday that he probably said it more than once.
“According to a new book, former President Trump has praised Adolf Hitler in private conversation with aides, and once said, ‘Hitler did some good things,’” Meyers said in the brief set-up in his “Late Night” monologue. “Oh come on — I don’t believe he said that once.”
The host left a pause for recognition and laughter as he put a noted emphasis on just once.
The book in question is Tuesday’s Penguin Random House release, “The Return of Great Powers: Russia, China and the Next World War” by CNN anchor and chief national security analyst Jim Sciutto.
