Late-night comedian Seth Meyers took Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to task after he reportedly referred to President Trump as a “f—ing moron,” then in his remarks, failed to deny ever saying it.

“I’m not going to deal with petty stuff like that,” Tillerson told reporters in a televised news conference. “This is what I don’t understand about Washington. Again, I’m not from this place. But the places I come from, we don’t deal with that kind of petty nonsense…I’m just not going to be part of this effort to divide this administration.”

Meyers had a few opinions about Tillerson’s failure to own up to his comments. Take a look.
