Jimmy Fallon Busts Out His Donald Trump Impression to Defend Melania, Mock RNC Speakers

Jimmy Fallon once again trotted out his Donald Trump impression (and his best Michael Jackson dance moves) to skewer the events of Tuesday night’s RNC convention. He began with the biggest news story to come out of the night: Melania Trump’s instantly infamous plagiarized speech, which lifted entire lines from an address given by Michelle Obama in 2008 (not to mention the other sources she borrowed from). “Did you see Melania? She stole the show—literally,” quipped Fallon as Trump.

He went on to praise the city of Cleveland while taking a shot at Paul Ryan’s unfortunately homogenous intern selfie: “It’s fantastic to be here, home of Cleveland’s great football team, the Cleveland Browns, and home of Paul Ryan’s great intern team, the Cleveland whites.” And he mocked the RNC’s somewhat lame lineup of speakers—which included some weird ones—with an appearance by Q*bert. Apparently, the real superstar, Pikachu, wasn’t available.
