According to the source, President Trump has promised voters a $5,000 check in order to keep his majority in the midterm elections. However, on Thursday night, Jimmy Fallon joked about an alternative way to receive that money during his monologue on "The Tonight Show." Fallon suggested that if viewers laugh at all the jokes during the show, Trump has promised to give them each $5,000.

Fallon also poked fun at Trump's lengthy address at the Republican midterm convention, comparing it to a residency rather than a speech. Despite the claim that Trump is unlikely to pay the promised amounts, Fallon joked that the only catch for the $5,000 would be spending it at the Mar-a-Lago gift shop.
