Well, after years of saying he was going to do it, he did it.
00:06
During Donald Trump's presidential campaign, the Republican hopeful promised that,
00:09
if elected, he would pull out of the Iran deal.
00:12
The now president fulfilled that promise on Tuesday, which led to late-night
00:15
hosts joking that Trump keeping his word was the exception, not the rule.
00:19
On NBC's Late Night, Seth Meyers imagined the first lady's reaction.
00:22
According to the host, President Trump today announced that he would pull out
00:25
of the Iran deal and said,
00:27
Then Melania laughed so hard her mouth fell off.
00:33
The joke was likely in reference to the women who have come forward to
00:36
allege they had affairs with Trump while he was married.
00:39
Or maybe he's just been promising to pick up his socks the whole time they've been together.
00:43
No, it's the first one. Definitely the first one.
00:45
On CBS's late show, Stephen Colbert added a new line to the president's quote about
00:49
keeping promises.
00:50
My lawyer keeps them on my behalf, but I pay him back eventually.
00:57
Switching back to his own persona, the host wondered,
00:59
And what are you talking about?
01:00
What are you talking about?
01:02
You literally just backed out of an American promise.
01:05
That's like saying,
01:06
I'm no longer denying my alcoholism.
01:09
Let's drink to that.
01:11
Over on TBS, Conan O'Brien also made a joke about the women who have accused
01:15
Trump of being unfaithful to his wife, specifically Stormy Daniels,
01:18
who Trump lawyer Michael Cohen paid to keep quiet about her alleged affair with the president.
01:23
Said the host,
01:24
Meanwhile, on Comedy Central's The Daily Show,
01:33
Trevor Noah delighted in Trump's use of the phrase nuclear blackmail in the announcement.
01:37
That makes sense.
01:38
I mean, he's already being blackmailed by Putin and a porn star.
01:41
A third one would be too much.
01:43
And on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host went there saying this.
01:47
The one time he should have pulled out, we ended up with Donald Jr.
01:50
