Seth Meyers humorously criticizes the Senate Trumpcare bill on his show, describing it as a tax cut for the wealthy funded by Medicaid cuts. He highlights a CBO report stating that 22 million people would lose insurance. Meyers also discusses Obama's trolling of Trump by calling the bill 'mean,' a term Trump had used privately. Trump later admitted to using the term in an interview. Meyers mocks Trump's admission and further criticizes the bill as a savage attack on the poor to benefit the rich.
