Jimmy Fallon Proves Trump Still Needs Education Department With Sharp One-Liner
HuffPost
The president has slashed the department's workforce in about half, prompting a mathematical zinger from "The Tonight Show" host.
Jimmy Fallon proved Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s gutting of the Department of Education doesn’t add up. (Watch the video below.)
The department this week announced the dismissal of at least 1,300 employees, reducing its workforce by about half since Trump’s second term began.
“Trump just announced he’s firing 50% of the Department of Education,” the “Tonight Show” host said. “Even worse, Trump said, ’Don’t worry, the other 60 percent will still have jobs.’”
Arithmetic wasn’t the president’s only problem in the comedian’s monologue. Trump’s new alphabet song imagined by Fallon might not catch on with youngsters.
“ABCD, ELON, ME. TARIFFS, JK, T-R-U-M-P,” it begins.
