Jimmy Fallon Pokes Fun at Trump’s Friendship With Kim Jong Un: ‘Cute How Their Bellies Bump’
“Man, you know you’re depressed when you’re texting an old hookup from seven years ago,” the “Tonight Show” host adds The post Jimmy Fallon Pokes Fun at Trump’s Friendship With Kim Jong Un: ‘Cute How Their Bellies Bump’ appeared first on TheWrap .
During Wednesday's episode of "The Tonight Show," host Jimmy Fallon directed his remarks at President Donald Trump's impending meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. "Tonight," Fallon remarked, "President Trump revealed his plans to engage in a conversation with Kim for the first time since 2019." The comedian chuckled at the irony, saying that even a long-lost text message from seven years ago would be depressing.
After a pause for laughter, Fallon joked that the meeting could happen in November, but it would depend on how Trump and Kim's Halloween costumes matched.
The host then paid homage to the last meeting between Trump and Kim, displaying a photograph of the leaders shaking hands with their bellies nearly touching. Fallon couldn't resist commenting on this image, saying, "I think it's cute how their bellies bump like the two soon-to-be moms at Lamaze class."
In addition to his Trump-focused humor, Fallon also targeted the president's current stance on Iran. "Meanwhile, the big news this week is that Trump said he's no longer talking to Iran," he announced. "After months of negotiations, he announced they're not speaking. Check out what happened on his last call with the Ayatollah." The editors then transitioned to a parody scene, in which a comedic version of Trump tried (and failed) to give Iran's leader the silent treatment.
The full monologue can be viewed above. "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" airs weeknights at 11:35 p.m. ET on NBC.
