Jimmy Fallon messed around with Donald Trump on “The Tonight Show” this week, but is it dangerous to treat Trump like a goofy old man instead of a dangerous authoritarian wannabe?

00:00 The thing about autocratic dictators is that they're just like us.
00:03 Donald Trump appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last night, where you could
00:06 almost forget that this lunatic is almost four months away from potentially launching
00:10 nuclear weapons.
00:12 Fallon asked Trump if he could mess up his hair, and Trump agreed.
00:15 Wow, Fallon.
00:26 You really made him look non-presidential, like he was just looking real good before
00:31 that.
00:32 At least we learned it's not a wig.
00:34 Fallon is taking a lot of heat for normalizing Trump instead of pointing out his extremist
00:38 views.
00:39 Emily V. Gordon tweeted, "A reboot of Frost/Nixon, but with Fallon and Trump.
00:43 In this fresh take, Fallon doesn't prepare and you feel nauseated watching it."
00:46 Mark Harris tweeted, "I don't fault Jimmy Fallon for not being a journalist.
00:49 I do fault him for his willingness to serve as hell's court jester."
00:53 Drunk Jimmy Fallon tweeted, "Trump wouldn't kiss."
00:56 Aww.
00:57 Bummy.
00:58 Trump continued his farce on TV this morning with a promised press conference to discuss
01:05 his stance on where President Obama was born.
01:07 First he claimed that Hillary Clinton started the birther movement during her 2008 campaign.
01:11 Hillary Clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy.
01:20 But that claim has been consistently debunked since he first started saying it last year.
01:24 But then he finally put the controversy to rest.
01:26 "President Barack Obama was born in the United States, period."
01:34 So there you have it folks.
01:35 The Republican nominee finally admits that the President was born in the U.S. and it
01:38 only took him half a decade.
