NBC’s late-night funny man Jimmy Fallon is doing the Democrats’ dirty work just two weeks from the midterm elections, issuing a completely partisan dog pile on President Donald Trump and Republicans that would make Stephen Colbert blush.
“Earlier tonight, the NBA season kicked off right here on NBC! That’s right. Basketball is back. And speaking of orange things that keep getting slammed…” the left-wing host began during Tuesday’s episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, before pausing to hear his audience laugh.
“President Trump is in the news,” Fallon continued. “That’s right, Trump and the Republicans continue to struggle in the polls, and the midterm elections are now officially two weeks away.”
“Yup, it’s 14 days till the election and 15 days until Trump claims it was rigged,” he added — an ironic joke, given that leftists have been claiming Trump will rig the midterm elections.
Fallon went on to say, “Trump’s approval rating just hit a record low. Trump’s staffers were like, ‘This time of the year, we prefer to think of it as fun size.’ I think Trump is running out of ideas.”
“First, he offered people $5,000 and today, he said, ‘If you vote Republican, you can be my press secretary.’ It’s five days at the White House. Why not? It’s fun. It’s a good gig,” the late-night host joked.
“Trump is trying everything. He just asked Nathan Fielder to make a documentary about him called ‘You Can See Everything but the Epstein Files,’” he added.

Fallon then quipped, “You can tell Trump is worried about the midterms because he’s currently on a nationwide campaign blitz, hitting seven states in seven days. The states are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, desperation, really desperate, and really, really desperate.”
“Oh, and at a rally last night, Trump again bragged about being able to pick out the giraffe on a cognitive test. I’d love to meet a voter who’s like, ‘The economy is a mess, we’re at war, but the man knows his giraffes,’” he continued.
“Everyone’s still talking about how White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia was fired after just five days on the job, and part of the reason was because she claimed to be a lawyer, even though she didn’t pass the bar exam,” Fallon added.
The left-wing host then declared, “Here now to comment about it is Katie Zacharia,” at which point an actress portraying Zacharia appeared onscreen to mimic and mock the former White House Press Secretary.
Fallon asked the faux Zacharia a series of law-related questions, which she blatantly failed to answer correctly.
At one point, the late-night host asked, “What is a precedent?” to which the mock Zacharia replied, “The man who just fired me.”
