On Thursday’s “The Tonight Show,” host Jimmy Fallon had a string of jokes that showed just how baffling a claim it is that Donald Trump could declassify documents just by thinking about it, as the former president told Sean Hannity in a now-viral interview Wednesday. Fallon also joked that such a gaff will only help Florida governor Ron DeSantis’ presidential prospects for 2024.
“Ron DeSantis was watching at home going, ‘Well, I guess we gotta start printing those campaign posters – here we go!,'” Fallon said while leading into his monologue. Sitting with “Hannity” in an exclusive interview Wednesday, Trump told the Fox News program that “it doesn’t have to be a process, as I understand it” to declassify top secret documents, defending the fact that he didn’t follow protocol with the documents found at Mar-a-Lago.
“Different people say different things, but as I understand it, there doesn’t have to be. If you’re the President of the United States, you can declassify just by saying, ‘It’s declassified,’ even by thinking about it.”Fallon looked absolutely confused after playing the clip for this in-studio audience, pretending to do a Jedi mind-trick bit while holding his hands to his temples and concentrating.
“Hannity was like, ‘Oh I get it you’re gonna plead insanity,'” he then joked. “‘Now it’s making sense.'”“I felt like he was this close to using the word abracadabra,” Fallon continued.Diving further into Trump’s Hannity interview, Fallon then pulled up a second clip where the twice-impeached former president suggested that the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago to look for Hillary Clinton’s notoriously deleted emails.
