Jimmy Fallon Coining the Perfect Couples Nickname for Trump and Musk Goes Viral

Speaking as the pretend Amazon CEO, Fallon said:

“I enjoyed discussing the future of Amazon with the President-elect.”

“Trump” replied:

“I’m eager to help Amazon grow into an even greater company.”

At that point, “Musk” entered the bit, adopting the persona of Trump’s possessive, jealous partner:

“Sooo…was this like a casual thing? I just think it’s weird you didn’t tell me about it.”

After “Bezos” said he looks forward “to meeting with Trump again soon,” Fallon as “Musk” dropped the punchline:

“Whoa, Jeff! Haha! You know Trump already has a billionaire, right? I mean, we’re a pretty public item! #Elonald”

“Bezos” then assured “Musk” that he and “Trump” are “just friends,” which prompted “Musk” to say:

“Hands off my zaddy!”

You can hear what he said in the video below.

Trump dismissed the idea that he had “ceded the presidency” to Musk. He added that even if Musk aspired to the role, he wouldn’t qualify due to the Constitution’s stipulation that the U.S. president must be a natural-born citizen—a requirement Musk, born in South Africa, does not meet.

Trump said:

“No, he’s not going to be president, that I can tell you. And I’m safe. You know why he can’t be? He wasn’t born in this country.”

Democrats have voiced concerns about Musk’s growing influence over congressional Republicans. The Lincoln Project, a prominent anti-Trump group, released a video dubbing Trump the “vice president” to “President Musk.”

Republicans, however, have worked to minimize the appearance of any discord between the two figures. Trump’s team dismissed the allegations as “ridiculous,” insisting that there is no rift.

But if there’s one thing we do know, it’s that the thin-skinned Trump likely won’t tolerate Musk for too long.
