Jimmy Fallon to Donald Trump: Why is he tweeting me?

Jimmy Fallon had a few words of choice for the president Donald Trump last night and vice versa. On Sunday, Trump tweeted to Fallon, telling him "to be a man" after the host expressed his regret for helping to "humanize" the commander-in-chief during the presidential election in 2016. Fallon first responded by making a donation to RAICES on behalf of Trump; The Texas-based non-profit organization helps immigrants and their children, primarily through free or low-cost legal services.

Monday, Fallon has opened The evening show by responding to Trump's tweet.

"Before we start, I just want to shout at our number one fan of the series, the President of the United States!" Fallon said. "As you may have heard last night, the President of the United States went to follow me on Twitter, so, Melania, if you look at it, I do not think your campaign against it will be. bullying works. "insulted me on Twitter," I was going to tweet immediately, but I thought, "I have more important things to do." I thought: "Wait, should not he to have more important things to do? He is the president! What are you doing? Why are you tweeting me? "After sharing Trump's tweet with the audience, he said," That's right. It's crazy. The president went after me on Twitter. That's pretty much the only thing I have in common with the NFL players. In response, I made a donation on behalf of Trump to the Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services, or RAICES. When Trump heard, he said, "I love RAICES, it's my favorite cup of peanut butter. There is no bad way to eat a RAICES. "

"Let's get some real news here," continued Fallon. "A new poll found that 58% of Americans think that President Trump is smart. In response, Trump said," OK, what were the remaining 58% saying? "And today, at the White House, Trump met with the King and Queen of Jordan – which was embarrassing when Trump thanked the King of Jordan for giving us Michael."

Fallon again teased Trump in his monologue by mentioning how Red Hen kicked White House's press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders out of his establishment over the weekend. After reading Trump's tweet about the restaurant, he joked, "If you have already read a review of Yelp and thought," Who has time to write that? "The answer is: President of the United States."

Trump, meanwhile, made more jabs at Fallon – and other late-night hosts – Monday night at a rally in Columbia, S.C. "He was so disappointed to know [my hair] was real. He could not believe it, "he said." Well, that's one of the great things I've had. So, Jimmy Fallon is excused. He apologized for having humanized me. Can you believe it? Poor guy, because now he's going to lose us all. "Reflecting on the backlash that Fallon received after the episode aired in September 2016, he said," Jimmy Fallon is calling me and he's like a nice boy. He is lost. He looks like a lost soul. But what do you know? It's a nice guy. I agreed to do his show and I guess because I was running at that time, I think, he got incredible odds. He should be grateful. He should not be angry or angry … I'm going in the show, you know? I agree. Do what you want with my hair. Go ahead, let's go. And that was all! You leave, what is it, two and a half years later? He apologizes because he has me humanized? And he's really hurt. Trump then explained that Fallon had called him to thank him for his appearance because he was giving The evening show "monster evaluations". Annoyed, Trump continued, "I told him today, on social networks," Jimmy, be a man, relax yourself. "

But Fallon was not the only target of Trump.

In reference to The late showof Stephen Colbert Trump complained, "I mean honestly, are these people funny? And I can make fun of myself … Frankly, if I could not, I'd have big problems. But there is no talent, they are not like talented people. Johnny Carson was talented I mean this guy on CBS, has no talent. Jimmy Kimmel would meet me before the election … I go to his studio to make a shot, he was standing outside the sidewalk that was waiting for me. "Oh, he's coming here Donald Trump." He opens my door. I was not president. I was like a guy – a guy with potential. "Today, he was going to transmit Jimmy Kimmel Live! "This guy is terrible."
