"Me and the Ayatollah" -- Late Night Roasts Trump's WILDEST Claim - LateNight

Late night hosts Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, and Jon Stewart have a field day in reaction to one of Donald Trump’s WEIRDEST answers yet.

When asked who would control the Strait of Hormuz, Trump suggested it could be handled “jointly” — even mentioning himself and the Ayatollah.

The comment comes amid escalating tensions over the critical oil route, which has been at the center of the conflict with Iran.

... Trump bombed, without provocation, a facility containing several high government officials, but also members of his family, allegedly including his son's family. His son is now the Ayatollah.
And Trump, being the pathological liar he has always been, claims he's in negotiations with the man whose father and family he assassinated.
So, what is it about this scenario that doesn't stink like an abattoir in August?
