Late night hosts ridiculed President Trump's focus on his new helipad during President Xi Jinping's White House visit, suggesting the Chinese leader was unimpressed by the granite feature. Jon Stewart mocked Trump's pride in the helipad, comparing Xi's reaction to someone standing in front of a tank, and noted China's advanced infrastructure like maglev trains and rapid city-building. Bill Maher likened showing the helipad to Xi as teaching Gordon Ramsay to reheat pizza, while Seth Meyers criticized the assumption that others share Trump's interest in granite.

The segment also included jokes about U.S.-Iran talks and the Strait of Hormuz, with Jimmy Fallon quipping about talk duration and the reflecting pool. Additional highlights included Matt Damon interrupting Jimmy Kimmel's monologue in Brooklyn, Rachel Maddow's upcoming appearance on Seth Meyers' show, and Phoebe Bridgers banning phones on her Lost Tour to promote fan presence.
