The comedian discussed Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday morning’s episode of “The Talk.”. “The good thing about this election is that it was honest and fair. It’s the President of the United States, so it’s okay if I wasn’t a fan. Let’s all get together and thank you very much,” he said as the audience cheered.
“You know, I’m afraid that they’ll be eyeing this, and there are 1,100 votes out of 300 million, and they’ll be calling names like, ‘Okay, here’s the answer, OK? This is the thing. There was no cheating; it was done professionally. According to everyone, it was truthful. “It’s a great day for democracy,” Leno continued.
Co-host Natalie Morales began by asking the “Tonight Show” veteran about his past election-related experiences as a late-night personality. “You are accustomed to performing live on ‘The Tonight Show,’ following significant elections such as this one,” she remarked. “What do you recall about those times?”.
Leno answered, “Well, it was different, you know. You kind of mocked both sides in my day. Both sides would send you angry letters. It’s a little different now, and you kind of have to pick a side. “”.
In March 2009, Leno appeared on Barack Obama’s late-night talk show and conducted the first interview with a sitting president. The most recent role Leno played was that of legendary talk show host Ed Sullivan in the movie “Midas Man.”.
