Donald Trump likes to invent figures, his false statistics on employment, at his arbitrary prices to his claim to reduce the prices of prescription medicines by an impossible “1500%”. “Trump is not ashamed, so he continues to drive with his invented numbers,” said Seth Meyers on Monday evening, a few hours after Trump used false crime statistics to deploy the National Guard to Washington DC.

The federal takeover of the capital’s police forces was based on “figures that still have no meaning,” said Meyers. “And you don’t have to take it to me. CNN learned it live while he spoke “with graphs confirming that violent crimes are down 26% compared to the previous year, and 35% compared to the previous year. “We had presidents who lied before, but we never had a president who was so easy to check,” said Meyers. “Who are you going to believe, the statistics on the CNN or the guy who says that he can reduce the prices of medicines by 1500%?”

Trump’s press conference announcing the takeover was “as with everything Trump, entirely for the show,” said Meyers. “And the way you know is that the very first words he pronounced did not concern the crime, but his dream of building a new ballroom in the White House.”

After Trump’s diversion in his desire to build a giant golden ball in the White House, he showed graphics with “statistics” on local crime and just said: “Ok?”

“Is it his new slogan now? Is he just holding a painting and saying” ok? “,” Said Meyers. “He is like a lazy magician who does not make you take a card, he holds one and acts as it was what it was going to be.” “”

Trump spoke of DC “as if it were a dystopian hell of a steampunk novel”. The city, he said, was “taken care of by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals, itinerant crowds of wild young people, drugged maniacs and homeless, mass caravans for young people in the streets of the city, they are in mountain biking, motorcycles, they travel fairly well”.

“So what happened was: it fell asleep looking at Fox News, overturned on the remote control, accidentally changed the channel to HBO, woke up and saw Mad Max: Fury Road and thought it was always the news,” said Meyers.

Questioned by a journalist how the repression of the crime square with the reported plan of his administration to reclassify marijuana, Trump replied: “We look at him.” “Do you watch them or run away as five times a day?” I wondered Meyers.

Marijuana consumption “could also explain why Trump does not even seem to know where he is or where he is going daily,” he added, as at the conference, Trump claimed to go to Russia on Friday to meet Vladimir Putin, when he really meets the Russian president in Alaska. “Oh damn, have you ever given Alaska?” Meyers joked. “I can’t wait to see the report of this meeting. The United States has concluded an agreement with Russia in which Russia will return the ground it has stolen from Ukraine and the United States in return will give Russia several states, including Alaska, Rhode Island and New Jersey. “

“In the end, I think that most of Trump’s press conference could be summed up in this way,” said Meyers, cutting a Trump’s clip saying “we officially declare a public security emergency … and it’s annoying for me to be here.”

“Yes,” confirmed Meyers. “In a way, it’s annoying for all of us.”
