Seth Meyers explains what being in Trump’s MAGA camp really means
Late show host Seth Meyers has revealed what being in the “MAGA camp” really entails after Donald Trump warned Nikki Haley donors they would be “permanently barred” from it if they continue to contribute to her campaign.
In a rant on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday evening, Mr Trump warned that “anybody that makes a “Contribution” to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp”.
“We don’t want them and will not accept them because we Put America First, and ALWAYS WILL!” he added.
On Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday, Mr Meyers explained that the “MAGA camp” is somewhat different to your average Boy Scout excursion.
“If you are wondering what MAGA camp is, it is like Boy Scout camp except the badges are for things like tax evasion, election fraud, lying about your golf score,” Mr Meyers joked.
The host went on to list the times when Trump loyalists have earned some of those badges.
“No matter who you are in Trump’s orbit, no matter how much you suck up, you are destined for insults and humiliation,” he said.
As an example, he noted Senator Lindsay Graham – “a key Trump rival turned enemy turned ally turned enemy turned frenemy turned ally turned best friend for life” – who told Fox News recently he thought Trump was “the toughest guy I’ve ever seen in Washington”.

“It won’t surprise you to learn, as usual, even Trump’s most loyal servants are full of s***,” Mr Meyers said.
He pointed to a new book by Michael Isikoff and Daniel Klaidman that claims Mr Graham “threw Donald Trump under the bus” in a “secret grand jury testimony in Fulton county confirmed by the authors,” according to Politico.
