NBC’s The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon made a total mess of GOP candidate Donald Trump’s hair tonight.
In fairness, Fallon asked permission to wreak hair havoc, first buttering up Trump, telling him his campaign has been “amazing and exciting,” and that “you say some shocking things…I can’t even believe.”
“But I’m trying not to,” Trump said, showing how diplomatic he can be.
“Can I mess your hair up?” Fallon finally got around to asking.
Trump cringed.
“I’ll be gentle,” Fallon promised.
“So long as the people in New Hampshire, where I’m going to be in an hour or so — I hope they understand,” Trump said nobly, giving in to his fate.
Fallon stuck his hand into Trump’s tresses and gave them a very vigorous shake.
The structure shook, but did not topple, mostly falling back into place. Trump used his large hands to smooth out the mess, while Fallon politely said he would make a hash of his own hair, and proceeded to do that.
