During the “A Closer Look” segment of Thursday’s episode of _The Late_ Show, the host joked that the day’s festivities will conclude with an impeachment hearing, showing a clip in which the chief ethics lawyer for George W. Bush deemed Trump’s business conflicts unconstitutional. “I guess that explains the schedule,” Meyers said. “Noon swearing-in, 3 p.m. inaugural parade, 6 p.m. impeachment hearing.” Meyers also had fun with Trump’s lack of A-list inaugural performers, joking about desperate attempts to get notable names. “You get an ambassadorship for booking an inauguration performer?,” he said. “If that were the case, you can bet Chris Christie would be cold-calling everyone in the Los Angeles phone book — ‘Please, Rihanna, if you do this, I could be ambassador to Chile, and I love Chili’s!'” Watch the full clip above. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4640739/seth-meyers-donald-trump-inauguration/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4640739/seth-meyers-donald-trump-inauguration/"},"headline":"Seth Meyers Jokes That Trump's Inauguration Day Will End With an Impeachment Hearing","datePublished":"2017-01-20T16:00:03.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:40:19.084Z","description":"\"Noon swearing-in, 3 p.m. inaugural parade, 6 p.m. impeachment hearing\"","url":"https://time.com/4640739/seth-meyers-donald-trump-inauguration/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","politics","Seth Meyers","Late Night with Seth Meyers","TV","Donald Trump","Inauguration 2017"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4640739/seth-meyers-donald-trump-inauguration/","name":"Seth Meyers Jokes That Trump's Inauguration Day Will End With an Impeachment Hearing"}}]}] ```
