Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday made a saucy comparison to spotlight President Donald Trump’s falling popularity for his immigration crackdown. (Watch the video below.)
The “Tonight Show” host pointed to a Reuters/Ipsos poll indicating that his approval rating on that front sank to 39%.
“I’m not saying it’s bad but ‘Heated Rivalry’ has a higher approval rating at the Vatican,” Fallon joked.
“Heated Rivalry,” a hit streamer on HBO Max, features two pro hockey players steaming up the screen in a gay romance.

Trump also noted productive phone calls with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
