Jimmy Fallon had some enjoyable Wednesday due to the continuing intra-MAGA feud over Jeffrey Epstein, significantly the twist that Donald Trump is now angrily complaining about his personal supporters over the matter. And amongst his jokes, Fallon imagined Trump turning on one other of his well-known favorites: McDonald’s.
We assume you’re caught up, however simply in case, there’s a giant battle taking place between Republicans over the out-of-nowhere declare final week by Lawyer Normal Pam Bondi that the extensively reported listing of purchasers, and potential blackmail data stored by Epstein didn’t truly exist. The issue for a lot of is, after all, that earlier this yr Bondi acknowledged authoritatively that she was very a lot in possession of that data and deliberate to make it public.
Since then, Trump has been lockstep with Bondi, downplaying Epstein’s total significance, making an attempt to falsely blame Democrats for the scandal, and is now lashing out at his supporters. And that’s what Fallon began his monologue about.
“President Trump was simply seen within the public with a big bruise on his hand that was coated with make-up,” Fallon started, exhibiting the viewers an image of it. “Yeah, Trump is like, ‘Lastly, that is the quilt up everybody ought to be speaking about.’ Trump’s an attention-grabbing man. There’s not one a part of them that’s the identical coloration. It’s like a gobstopper.”
“There’s additionally a latest picture of Trump that exhibits him with severely swollen ankles,” Fallon continued, exhibiting a photograph of this. “What ankles” I simply see, I simply see a leg that turns into a foot. I don’t know what, that appears like somebody put a pair of socks over two liter bottles of Weight loss plan Coke. His shoelaces are like, ‘I’m undecided how for much longer I can maintain on.’”
“However the massive story in the present day,” Fallon then mentioned, “is that Trump lashed out at his personal supporters who have been criticizing him over the Epstein recordsdata, calling them ‘weaklings who’ve purchased into BS hook line and sinker. Trump hasn’t been this mad on the individuals he loves since McDonald’s launched salads.”
Fallon continued, “Trump’s turning on his largest supporters someplace from an undisclosed location. Mike Pence was like, ‘in character for him.’ But Trump’s claims he by no means set foot on Epstein Island? The actual query is, did he set a cankle?”
There’s rather more after all, together with an amusing bit the place Fallon imagines Trump making an attempt to go off the entire Epstein factor onto different individuals. Watch that above.
