No one does a heart-to-heart like Danny Tanner, so when Jimmy Fallon's Donald Trump decided he needed to talk to someone during Tuesday's Tonight Show, he headed straight to Michelle's pencil bed and waited for the sentimental Full House music to start playing and the audience to erupt in awwww's.
Trump confided to his new dad that while he's thrilled by his "yuuge" win in New Hampshire, he's afraid if he doesn't get the Republican nomination, he'll be branded a loser. Trump was in luck — not only did Danny share some inspiring words, but so did the rest of the gang, including Joey, D.J., and Uncle Jesse (John Stamos), who proclaimed: "If you really want to make America great again, you have to bring people together, not push them apart." Because this is Uncle Jesse we're talking about, there was a "Have mercy" thrown in for good measure.
