  "account": "Jimmy Fallon took to the \"Tonight Show\" on Monday night to celebrate President Trump's announcement that \"perimeters of a deal\" had been reached with Iran. Fallon joked that this revelation may have been the reason behind Trump's apparent newfound fondness for a thesaurus. In his monologue, Fallon pointed out that Trump had previously referred to various stages of a deal, such as the \"outline of a deal\" and the \"framework of a deal.\" The comedian emphasized that the real news was Trump's apparent expanded vocabulary.\n\nFallon also made light of Trump's handling of the war in Iran. He mentioned a recent cabinet meeting at Camp David where the administration discussed the situation, and jokingly suggested that their best solution was blaming the war on Dr. Fauci. Fallon playfully added that it might be too much to expect Trump to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, given his struggles with even reopening the backyard swimming pool.\n\nIn a side note, Fallon commented on the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which Trump's Justice Department had claimed had been vandalized. However, it was later revealed that the pool's issues were due to poor construction work. Fallon joked that Trump was now considering turning the pool into a reflecting pool table by draining the water, covering it in green felt. The full monologue by Fallon can be viewed in the video above.",
