Paul Ryan's office complained to Seth Meyers about his jokes and Meyers offers this amazing response:

Seth Meyers began his show with the revelations that President Barack Obama told unpopular incumbent Donald Trump that disgraced General Michael Flynn was going to be a disgrace and should not have a job. But quickly, Meyers moved into the passing of the Trumpcare zombie bill and the subsequent fallout at town halls for Republicans. Discussing the now infamous Raul Labrador quote saying that no one dies of lacking access to healthcare, Meyers shot this factoid.

That’s like saying that nobody dies from falling out of a window, it’s the pavement that gets you.
After lambasting Republicans for clearly not reading the proposal and the myriad disastrous crisis management attempts by Party members, Seth Meyers does a simple recount of the events that just transpired this past week and then shows clips of a “younger” Paul Ryan railing against the very bullshit he and his Republican Party are guilty of doing now. This led to the revelation that Speaker Paul Ryan’s people saw Meyers’ takedown and were sadface emoji about it.

After we aired that segment last week, we here at "Late Night" actually got an e-mail from Speaker Ryan's office taking issue with our analysis of the health care bill and the rushed process. And unlike Republicans and their health care bill, we actually read the whole e-mail. But this is great because we genuinely appreciate the engagement and would love to have Speaker Ryan on the show. Suffice to say we don't agree with the e-mail, and we thought it would be helpful if we took a second to respond to some of their claims point by point.
For example, they took issue with our characterization that the bill was rushed, writing: “This bill has been online for a month, went through four House committees, and the only change this week was a simple three-page amendment.” Which is misleading for a number of reasons. For one thing, that three-page amendment is the reason a lot of Republicans changed their minds and voted for this bill, so you can't claim it's a small change. A lot can happen in three pages. That's like saying I made you a cappuccino with hot water, sugar, espresso, and one other ingredient. You would say, "Well, what's the other ingredient, Mr. Cosby?"
