Meyers' blunt assessment came at the end of a sketch in which he brought an actual dog on stage and tried to fire the adorable canine named Kevin.
"This isn't the first time Donald Trump has referred to firing a dog in a tweet, he's done it multiple times, and it's strange, because most people when they think of dogs don't think of firing them. So we wondered what that would look like, so please enjoy our new segment, 'Seth Fires a Dog.'"
