On Wednesday’s episode of "The Tonight Show," Jimmy Fallon took on Donald Trump for his decision to shut down the Kennedy Center due to it lacking his name, drawing a contrast with his own failed casino ventures. The comedian made light of the situation during his monologue, quipping that the only thing that could halt the box office success of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" would be Trump adding his name to it.
Fallon then shifted focus to the ongoing legal battle Trump is facing over adding his name to the Kennedy Center, which a judge deemed unfeasible. The president announced plans to cancel the renovation project, comparing the Reflecting Pool's reaction to the situation with amusement. Fallon mocked Trump's previous struggles with bankruptcy, specifically referencing his casinos, stating that Trump's shutting down the Kennedy Center was ironic given the opposite outcome experienced by his failed casinos.
Despite the controversy, Fallon noted that the venue will still be known as the Kennedy Center, regardless of any rebranding efforts by Trump. He concluded the segment by teasing a parody video in which Trump desperately pleads to put his name on something, a lighthearted take on the ongoing saga.
