Fallon is one of those people. Fallon just wants to talk to celebrities and sing along with Justin Timberlake. Not everything has to be political. If you want something to stand up to Trump, thank God we have Kimmel, Colbert for a while and The Daily Show.

To do is comedy skits, sing with stars, and chit chat with stars.

I am disappointed that Fallon wasn't smart enough to learn from Disney's mistake.

...and Kimmel (also, see 0:33-- Franklin also does not seem to know whose faces are shown in that image or to whom he is meant to be referring).

The clip of Fallon talking about how he is not making waves was definitely interesting, though: avoiding Fallon's show is not such a bad idea. However, it would have been nice if Franklin would have checked his script more thoroughly.
