Late night comedy host and political commentator Jimmy Fallon has a major question about President Donald Trump, and it is not exactly flattering.
On Friday morning, Fallon took to Twitter to make an inquiry about the president’s intellectual abilities in a short post. The five-word caption, while brief, jumped right to the heart of Fallon’s curiosities. “Can you say, ‘cognitively there,’” the commentator tweeted.
The post comes at the heels of a Fox News interview that the American president did with Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel. In the exclusive, Mr. Trump explained the format of a cognitive test that he claims to have taken recently.
According to the president, he was posed a series of memory questions involving lists of words. “Person, woman, man, camera, TV,” the president recited in his interview with Dr. Siegel.
The official results of the alleged test have yet to be released to the public.
Fallon’s Animated Response
In addition to posting a question about Mr. Trump’s mental faculties, Fallon tweeted a short video parody of the president’s interview with Dr. Siegel.
The forty-one-second clip incorporates imagery from the educational children’s television cartoon Dora The Explorer.
Throughout the video, Dora encourages Mr. Trump to accurately parrot the very words that he repeats in his Fox News exclusive. “Can you say, ‘person, woman, man, camera, TV,’” the cartoon character asks.
In the clip, the president seems to engage in Dora’s activity. “Person, woman, man, camera, TV,” Mr. Trump said repeatedly.
Dora The Explorer aims to teach problem-solving skills and new vocabulary to young children. The program airs on Nickelodeon.
Laughter On the ‘Tonight Show’
Fallon’s Twitter account is not the only one of his platforms abuzz due to the Fox Interview. On July 23, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon posted a segment to its YouTube channel in which the host comments the president’s interview.
Fallon’s feedback is less than positive. “What is he doing? He sounds like someone playing charades after pounding Chardonnay,” Fallon said.
In Fallon’s opinion, Dr. Siegel may not have been too impressed by the president’s interview. According to the comedian, Siegel’s expression during the exclusive seems to ask, “is he having a stroke, or am I?”
