Here’s an excerpt from the interview:
And then this happened…
The friendly conversation REALLY bothered a lot of people, and I mean REALLY bothered them.
I don't fault Jimmy Fallon for not being a journalist. I do fault him for his willingness to serve as hell's court jester.

After the Trump hair cuteness, waiting for @jimmyfallon to invite ex-KKK Grand Wizard David Duke & ask him if he can sully his white robe.

Jimmy Fallon has people play games on The Tonight Show. He should have Trump play Risk and see how quickly he destroys the whole world.

@jimmyfallon If you support a bigot, antisemite, misogynist & a racist that make you those things as well. Shame on your Trump promotion!

@jimmyfallon I am beyond disappointed that U gave the dangerous buffon @D.Trump a platform to be on your show. Is a KKK member on next week?

Perhaps @jimmyfallon could be hired as a clown in one of President Trump's internment camps?

@jimmyfallon WTF is wrong with you. Used to be one of the good guys. Treating a hateful figure like Trump as one of the guys… shameful

This one makes a good point…
Left is all upset that Jimmy Fallon "humanized" Trump (after all their work to demonize him). Really mad cause nothing can humanize Hillary.

Of course, there can be no discussion about Trump without someone mentioning Hitler or the Nazis. This phenomenon is known as Godwin’s Law: “As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1.”
Fallon interviewing Hitler: "Let's talk about your book!"

@jimmyfallon ..burn in hell orange Hitler trump !!!!!! Satan's puppet.

And, perhaps the most rational Tweets in the conversation…
Apparently people are pissed at Jimmy Fallon for objectively treating #Trump as a guest and not questioning him like a political journalist.

watched Jimmy Fallon w/Trump expecting the Nuremberg trials but instead got a talk show trying to be appealing & entertaining?
— Philip Masters (@hip_hop_tomato) September 16, 2016
@M_W_Kennedy @jimmyfallon @realDonaldTrump they are all angry because Jimmy treated trump like MSM treats Hillary.

@jimmyfallon Reality Check: Jimmy's an entertainer, not a News Anchor, if you want negative Trump coverage watch @CNN
— #Deplorable Smoir99 (@SMoir99) September 16, 2016
Oh, snap! He has a point – the Clinton News Network does do some serious Trump-bashing!
Omg people are actually butt hurt that @jimmyfallon a talk show host joked around and had Trump on his show…you gotta be kidding!
— Ryan Mayer (@rmayer94) September 16, 2016
after Jimmy Fallon w/Trump I'm beginning to doubt the journalistic integrity of professional lip-syncing talk show hosts
— Philip Masters (@hip_hop_tomato) September 16, 2016
For what it’s worth, Fallon has also interviewed Hillary Clinton in a similar, playful manner.
Perhaps if people recognized the (s)election for what it really is, they’d stop wasting their mental energy on outrage over a late night TV show.
