Seth Meyers casts Donald Trump's 'new' TV show, 'Chicago President'
Watch Next

Seth Meyers has been saying for a while now that NBC (read: just Meyers, for this joke) is prepared to give Donald Trump his own 13-episode television show if he drops out of the presidential race.

On last night's Late Night, Meyers brainstormed a few casting ideas for Chicago President, which we assume will join the ranks of Chicago Med, Chicago Fire and Chicago PD.

Meyers' choices are very thoughtful — Michael Cera would make Paul Ryan a lot less imposing.

We dunno, Donald. Sounds pretty tempting, huh?
