--- --- # Seth Meyers Roasts Steve Bannon for Glorifying 'Billy Bush Weekend'  by [Megan McCluskey](https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/)  ## Megan McCluskey Staff Writer Sep 12, 2017 4:53 PM UTC  by [Megan McCluskey](https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/)  ## Megan McCluskey Staff Writer Sep 12, 2017 4:53 PM UTC Following the Sunday broadcast of [Steve Bannon’s](http://time.com/4935531/steve-bannon-james-comey-firing-60-minutes/) [_60 Minutes_](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/60-minutes-breitbart-steve-bannon-declares-war-on-the-gop/)interview, [Seth Meyers](http://time.com/4904579/seth-meyers-on-trump-charlottesville-press-conference/) gave his take on the former White House chief strategist’s new nickname for the leak of the now infamous [_Access Hollywood_ tape](http://time.com/4523526/donald-trump-women-leaked-audio/) with President Donald Trump: “Billy Bush Weekend.” During the “A Closer Look” segment of Monday’s episode of _Late Night_, the host slammed Bannon for sounding as though he was celebrating the release of the video — in which Trump was heard lewdly bragging to Bush about his ability to “do anything” to women. “It’s not a holiday,” Meyers said, jokingly adding, “Gather ’round, children, can you hear it? It’s the sound of the _Access Hollywood_ bus! Billy Bush Weekend is here, Tic Tacs for everyone!” Meyers was specifically referencing the portion of Bannon’s interview in which he described the days following the tape’s leak as a “litmus test.” “If you side with \[Trump\], you have to side with him, and that’s what Billy Bush weekend showed me,” Bannon told CBS’s Charlie Rose. “Billy Bush Saturday showed me who really had Donald Trump’s back.” Watch the full _Late Night_ clip above.
