Seth Meyers reads brutally funny fake birthday wishes to Trump on his Facebook page
Wednesday was President Trump's 71st birthday, and to celebrate, Seth Meyers and his Late Night crew came up with a bunch of birthday wishes for Thursday's show that were definitely not posted to Trump's Facebook wall. They start out plausibly boring enough, but go downhill fast. To watch what Melania Trump, Jeff Sessions, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and James Comey did not write on Trump's Facebook wall, look below. The short clip is safe for work, but you might laugh audibly. Peter Weber
