Everybody get out of the way, Jimmy Fallon understands. The NBC late-night host mentioned Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s couple: Elonald.
The joke is part of one of the “he said-she-said” clips that Fallon frequently uses, where he imagines fake and silly conversations between notable people. In the most sensible part of his opening monologue, Fallon noted that Jeff Bezos had a “pretty successful” meeting with President-elect Trump and gave the ground to Bezos and Trump to see how it went.
“I enjoyed discussing the long term of Amazon with the president-elect,” the fake Amazon CEO began.
“I’m eager to help Amazon grow into an even greater company,” Trump responded. That’s when Elon Musk piped up, taking on the role of Trump’s jealous boyfriend.
“So. . . is it something informal?” Musk asked. I just think it’s weird that you didn’t tell me about it. “
“I hope to see Trump back soon,” Bezos said. That’s when the “Tonight Show” dropped its gem.
“Wow, Jeff! Haha! You know Trump already has a billionaire, right? I mean, we’re a public object! #Elonald,” Musk said.
Fake Bezos then assured Musk that he and Trump are just friends, causing fake Musk to say, “Hands off my zaddy!”
That wasn’t the only joke Fallon made about Bezos’ meeting. Before the exchange even started, the NBC host noted the billionaire went to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. “Unfortunately right after Bezos was dropped off someone stole him from the front porch,” Fallon said.
