Seth Meyers Calls Out Erick Erickson’s ‘Sexist’ Hypocrisy

The strange irony of Erick Erickson defending Megyn Kelly from Donald Trump’s sexist comments was not lost on Seth Meyers, who called attention to the conservative radio host’s past interactions with Kelly.

“It’s a big deal when Erick Erickson disinvites you for sexism,” Meyers said of the decision to keep Trump from speaking at the RedState gathering, “because Erick Erickson is a huge sexist.”

The host then played a clip of Erickson telling Kelly that according to nature men are supposed to “dominate” women.

“It’s never good when your argument starts, ‘Look at the other animals,'” Meyers noted. “‘Eric, stop shitting on the front lawn!’ ‘But the other animals!'”

As Kelly once asked Erickson, “Who died and made you scientist-in-chief?”
