Late night American talk show hosts took a dig on the US Supreme Court's decision to support President Donald Trump's travel ban on several countries.

The US Supreme Court in a 5-4 vote put into effect Trump's travel ban. The decision is being deemed as a success for the Trump Administration.

'The Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon with whom Trump exchanged some heated tweets in regard to the hair tussle incident, took a dig and joked about the US President's travel ban.

"The Supreme Court voted in favor of the president's travel ban 5-4, or as Trump calls that, unanimous," Hollywood reporter quoted the Jimmy Fallon as saying.

Further, 'Late Night' show host Seth Meyers joked that the American Supreme Court should uphold Trump's travel ban only if he can name all the seven the countries that fall under it (ban).

Meanwhile, comedian Trevor Noah in his 'The Daily Show' said that Trump denied the travel ban was a "Muslim ban" because North Korea was included in the list.

The travel ban includes Venezuela (South America), Libya and Somalia from Africa; Syria, Yemen, Iran, North Korea from Asia.
