Trump Fails with Gen Z, Town Hall Moderated by Fox Ally Sean Hannity | The Tonight Show

Welcome, welcome, welcome to "The Tonight Show." You're here. You made it. Thank you for watching at home. From the new movie "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice," Justin Theroux is here tonight! [ Cheers and applause ] Also, she's one of the greatest Olympians of all time. Simone Biles is here this evening! [ Cheers and applause ] Simone is incredible. Between the two of us, we have 11 Olympic medals and one pickleball participation trophy between the two of us. -Beautiful. -I sprained my ankle halfway through, but I still got the trophy. Uh, guys, Election Day is just two months away, and a new poll shows that only a third of Gen Z voters support former President Trump. That makes sense. Trump thinks Gen Z is the rapper married to Beyoncé. [ Laughter ] -[as Trump] "I've also got 99 problems." [ Laughter ] That's right. Only a third of Gen Z supports Trump, while the rest plan to vote skibidi toilet. -Oh. -Speaking of Trump, tonight in Pennsylvania, the former president participated in a town-hall event on Fox News moderated by Sean Hannity. Yeah, it was just like the "Bachelorette" finale, but with a couple who are actually in love. -Oh. -Yeah. Did you guys see this? During a recent podcast appearance, Trump was asked where he writes his Truth Social posts from. Check this out. -What are you doing usually when you're composing a truth? Like, are you chilling back on a couch? -Couches, beds. -Okay. -A lot of different things. [ Laughter ] -Just say toilet. Just say -- Just say -- Asked how often he posts from bed, Melania said, "How the hell would I know?" Switching gears, I saw that temperatures in Phoenix, Arizona, just hit 100 degrees for the 100th day in a row. It is really hot. -Audience: How hot is it?! -It's so hot, I saw a bird catching a worm with a potholder. -Audience: But how is that relevant to us? -What? -Audience: We're in New York City... 75 degrees. -Right, but this show airs all across the country. -Audience: We only care about New York! 'Cause that's where we are! -Guys, you should care about other people in other places. -Audience: You're right... Our therapist says it's something we need to work on. -You all have the same therapist? -Audience: Yeah! -That's weird. -Audience: Almost as weird as seeing a bird catch a worm with a potholder! Ha ha ha ha ha! -Okay. Fair enough. Alright. Moving on. Fair enough. I got you. I understand. [ Applause ] They're right. Some business news. Uh, McDonald's just announced that they're going to start serving McFlurries in a new cardboard cup that has four flaps to cover the top. Every Chinese takeout restaurant was like, "Wow. Where'd you come up with that idea?" Can we see a photo of the new cardboard cups? Yeah. It looked like a Ronald McDonald gender reveal. [ Laughter ] Well, as I mentioned earlier, last night was the season finale of "The Bachelorette." We love "The Bachelorette" on our show, and there was a lot of drama between Jenn and her ex-fiancé, Devin. Now, if you missed it, don't worry because here to re-enact that scene with actual lines from the show are The Roots' own Tariq and Questlove. [ Cheers and applause ] ♪♪ -Thanks, Jimmy. Tonight I'll be playing the role of Jenn, this season's Bachelorette, a 26-year-old physician's assistant student from Miami, Florida, who was confronting their ex for the first time since their breakup. -And I'll be playing Devin, a 28-year-old freight-company owner from Houston, Texas, who's being confronted by their ex for the first time since their breakup. -Okay, well, whenever you're ready, take it away. [ Dramatic music plays ] -I can try to understand somebody changing their mind about the way they feel about somebody. What I can't understand is ending the engagement on a phone call. The next day, I wake up to you following girls on Instagram? Not just any girl, but Maria?! Did our relationship even mean anything to you? -U-Um, yeah, a-absolut-- -It was so hard... that you went and followed Maria on Instagram. You were going through such a tough time that you followed Maria... on Instagram! Next thing I know, you're in New York clubbing with Jeremy! [ Laughter ] -I-I think this is a little different than the conversation I was hoping to have with you. I-I went there for a work trip. I met a client and -- -[ Laughs ] Uh-huh. In the club? -Uh, am I not allowed to have a life? -No! You -- You can live a life! You can go clubbing as much as you want! But -- But don't -- don't even feel anything? Like, while my heart is broken every Monday night watching -- watching the lies that -- that you said to me on TV? -Uh, you can say they're -- -Are they not?! But I hope you had fun in the club. [ Cheers and applause ] ♪♪ -Questlove and Tariq, everyone. Questlove and Tariq. Alright. Yeah, yeah. Very nice. Thank you very much. Good to see you. Bye. Bye. Goodbye. Bye. Bye. Goodbye. Thank you. Thank you very much. Goodbye. Very good. [ Cheers and applause ] "Maria on Instagram?!" [ Laughs ] Guys, listen to this. Apparently, new images reveal that the railings on the "Titanic" have fallen off. Okay, I know this is gonna ruffle a few feathers. I'm just gonna come out and say it. The "Titanic" does not seem safe to me. [ Laughter ] And, finally, health authorities in Sweden said children should not be exposed to any TV screens or devices until the age of 2. Then, after spending a day with toddlers, they were like, "You know what? Maybe a little screen time during dinner won't hurt." We have a great show, everybody. Give it up for The Roots! -♪ Get up ♪ ♪♪ ♪ Hey ♪ ♪♪ ♪ Whoo ♪ -Yes! What a show! What a show we have for you tonight. He's an Emmy-winning actor, writer, and producer who stars in the big new movie "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice," which is in theaters and IMAX this Friday. Justin Theroux is here tonight! [ Cheers and applause ] Plus, she won four medals at this summer's Paris Olympics, bringing her total medal count to 11. Wow. This fall, she's starring in the Gold Over America Tour along with America's greatest gymnasts. Simone Biles is joining us this evening! [ Cheers and applause ] And we got great music from Cage the Elephant! "Neon Pill." Look at -- Oh. Studs. Look at these guys. Come on. The best. Um, guys, I'm sorry if I seem a little out of it. I didn't get much sleep last night. -Really? -Yeah, I had a nightmare. No. I had a...Tonightmare. [ Thunder crashes ] [ Woman screams ] I was all alone... standing outside a ranger station in the middle of nowhere. A park ranger ran out of the woods, covered in blood. He said, "Jimmy, you're not safe here! The only escape is through the forest!" So I booked it and I ran to the woods. I ran and I ran and I ran, and that's when I saw it. It was an alien! It slowly approached me, wrapped its claw around my throat, and it said... I-It said -- It said, "Tickets for Tonightmares, our immersive haunted maze experience at Rockefeller Center, are available now at JimmyFallonsTonightmares.com. It opens September 20th through Halloween. It's gonna be fun." Now stick around. We'll be right back with more [ Screams ] [ Cheers and applause ] [ Muzak playing ] -[Gravelly voice] We'll be right back with Justin Theroux. ♪♪
