With Donald Trump the only Republican left in the 2016 race, Jimmy Fallon put on his Trump outfit on Wednesday's Tonight Show and called his President Obama impersonator to brag a bit. Fake Obama congratulated fake Trump on the real Trump's presumptive victory, and Fallon poked fun at Hillary Clinton. "Now that Ted Cruz dropped out, there's only one man standing in my way," Trump said. "You mean, John Kasich?" Obama asked. "No, Hillary."
Trump got his share of mockery, too. "I watched your speech at the White House Correspondents' Dinner — it was hilarious," Fallon's Trump said. "I watched your speech on foreign policy, and the feeling is mutual, buddy," Obama replied. Watch below to see the two discuss Bernie Sanders, Game of Thrones, Beyoncé, and whether Obama would be Trump's running mate (spoiler: "Oh hell no!"). Peter Weber
