President Trump toured a section of the border wall in Arizona on Tuesday, and Jimmy Fallon joked about it in his monologue Tuesday on “The Tonight Show.”
“His approval rating has plummeted, his handling of the pandemic and protests have been a disaster, and his rally in Tulsa was seen as a flop,” Fallon said. “So, today, he decided to cheer himself up.”

“Yep, Trump visited the wall today, because in time of crisis, it’s important to be with your loved ones.” — JIMMY FALLON
“Trump said he loves barriers that block dangerous things — then went back to not wearing a mask.” — JIMMY FALLON
“It was quite a scene when Trump arrived, especially when his entire staff hopped the wall into Mexico. [Imitating Trump staff] ‘Adios! See you at my book signing!’” — JIMMY FALLON
“Yep, Trump celebrated the 200th mile of his wall, even though the border is 2,000 miles long. Instead of finishing the wall, Trump’s going to keep people out with a giant banner that says, ‘Home of the coronavirus.’” — JIMMY FALLON
“As he said, Trump is going to Arizona to celebrate building 200 miles of wall, but there’s a problem with that number — it’s not the number, ’cause the grand total of new wall where there was no wall before is three miles. So, three miles in a little more than three years, it’s 2,000 miles of border to cover, so he just needs to be president for 2,000 more years.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“And if the wall and banner don’t work, Trump has an even better idea to keep people out — he’s going to build a ramp with a very slight decline at the end. [Imitating Trump] ‘They’ll never, ever be able to get off that ramp, not with leather bottoms. Very slippery with leather bottoms. By the way, I know Leather Bottoms and I have not had any relationship with her. Leather and I are purely professional.’” — JIMMY FALLON
“One problem with Trump’s visit is ‘Arizona has tallied almost 55,000 cases of Covid-19 and has doubled the number of cases in the last 15 days.’ Yikes, the University of Phoenix might have to start offering some of its courses online.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“President Trump gave a speech today in Arizona to a group of young Republicans. Of course, in Arizona, the term young Republican refers to anyone who’s only wearing one knee brace.” — SETH MEYERS
“A megachurch in Phoenix is facing skepticism ahead of President Trump’s visit after it claimed to have installed a ventilation system that, quote, ‘kills 99.9 percent of Covid within 10 minutes,’ which sounds crazy but it’s still the most believable thing that’s ever been said in a megachurch. [Imitating a megachurch pastor] ‘Y’all, the Lord wants me to have a private jet. Why would a talking toaster lie to me?’” — SETH MEYERS
“Yeah, Trump gave a speech at a church, and the biggest part of that speech is where he showed everyone how he can drink communion wine out of one hand.” — JIMMY FALLON
