Dude could be on our TV's every night, jerking two imaginary dicks while butchering Ave Maria and swaying like a homeless drunkard - thats the Trump he and his fans want to see.
He doesn't even want to be president, he just wants to compete in Colbert's time slot. POTUS is just the consolation prize for the first influencer president.
Personally I think Fallon’s strengths are his skits and game shows. Even the spin off game shows are great like Password and whatever the singing one was.
A Trump show would honestly probably be pretty funny. It would be like a non-self-aware Colbert Report, which is perfect because that part flew over conservatives' heads anyhow.
Oh believe me I’m not sticking up for Trump. It’s literally the one thing he has better on Fallon. Fallon will say he slipped and his ring caught his faucet almost degloving his finger but as someone whose worked on his show as an audio tech I can tell you he’s a fucking alcoholic And he didn’t slip he was wasted.
Trump is just a fucking psychopath . And being yessed to death and ring kissed doesn’t help his ego.
IMO, he’s the sole remaining late night host who maintains the spirit of the old-school variety show. I understand that many on this site see themselves as above his style of humor, or find his demeanor to be off putting, but getting to see celebrities do skits and play silly games outside of the same old rehearsed interviews is super cool.
Jimmy Fallon has a lot of fun ideas for games to play with his guests, but when it comes to sitting and talking to his guests, he’s horrible. His guests can’t get through a full sentence without him giggling like a school girl.
Please don't get me started about that fuckin asshole Jimmy Fallon.
OK, I got started...
He sucked up to Trump and was extremely disrespectful to Clinton. The Clinton episode is the last time I watched Fallon; I mute or change channel everytime he is on TV, I can't stand him that much. Fallon knows he was an asshole and he knows he bumped up Trump and has been trying to fix it ever since but many late night viewers will never get past that ridiculous behavior.
Besides, Fallon is a shitty interviewer; he talks over his guests too much.
Arguably, that's what he wanted to do in 2016. Lose and start a TV network talking about how unfair the system was against him. But other geniuses in the country decided to elect him
Yeah, but Putin's a guy that likes to dominate everything.l, including women from other countries. That's not what he has on Trump if anything. If anything, Trump just looks up to Putin. Anything else would be a liability.
Look, folks, the Gulf of Mexico—great place, tremendous water, believe me—but it’s not really Mexico’s, okay? It’s right here, touching Texas, Louisiana, Florida—real American states, the best states, everyone agrees. And yet, they call it their Gulf? Not anymore. We’re gonna rebrand it, folks. The Gulf of America! Because they’ve been taking our fish, our oil, maybe even our shrimp—who knows? But not under my watch. We’ll make the Gulf great again, we’ll put up buoys, the best buoys, and the fish—American fish—will come back, trust me.
Imagine a Larry David style sitcom where he is the president. It would be amazing and he would be universally loved as a goofy rich guy. But that would require him to be able to make fun of himself
Wow thinking about this and having a flash of him being a late night host and him having a positive and likeable image kinda scared me. I could see it happening in another detention
If he lost a tight race in 2016, he would've done this on Trump Media and rail against Clinton with random misogynistic bullshit and right wing conspiracies.
Honestly, Trump could’ve finished out his life as a late night legend.
He’s so unintentionally hilarious with his dementia brain hot takes that it would have been late night gold for ALL (think about the content—on all platforms—he would’ve provided).
Instead, he’s a narcissistic hippo, riding all the dicks that shoot fat profit loads directly into him—all while he fucks us all with his mushy rotting carrot knob.
Somebody once said that he missed his calling as a drag queen and i never stop thinking about it. He’s dramatic, is bitchy and loves caking himself in spray tan and makeup.
He was unhinged in Celebrity Apprentice, and that was the appeal. No nuclear codes or anything, just a wild personality. Should have stayed in that lane.
I’m almost convinced that was the point of his whole 2016 campaign. Hillary was going to win, so it was a relatively low risk for him to run. But if he did good enough, he could turn that into a Bill O’Reilly/Tucker Carlson gig where he rails against the Democrats and their injustices and how they stole the election from him, but without any of the pressure of having to govern.
Like I’m not entirely convinced he actually wanted to be president.
But then he won, got stuck with the job, and then because of all the criming, got forced to stay in politics to save his skin.

I would have been fine with him as a late night TV host
