People Sure Thought Melania Trump’s Inauguration Outfit Looked Familiar
Jimmy Fallon on Monday mocked Melania Trump’s outfit choice for the second inauguration of her husband, President Donald Trump.
Fallon came out to his audience wearing a hat similar to that which was worn by the first lady.
“After this we’re going to play, who wore it better: me, Melania or the Hamburglar?” he zinged.
Later in his opening monologue, Fallon suggested Melania Trump’s outfit had people unsure “if she was there for the inauguration or to kill Indiana Jones.”
“All day long Trump kept cutting into the hat hoping it was cake,” he added.
Fallon then reflected on the “sweet moment” that Donald Trump appeared to have been thwarted from kissing his wife due to her wide-brimmed headwear.
“Isn’t that cool?” he asked. “That’s not just a hat. It’s Melania’s very own border wall. It makes sense, Melania didn’t want to ruin his makeup.”
