"I Didn't Do it to Humanize Him"- Jimmy Fallon Breaks Silence on Donald Trump Interview and Hair Ruffle

Jimmy Fallon says he was "devastated" by negative responses to his now-famous Donald Trump interview on The Tonight Show, in what mark his first public comments about the backlash.

During the appearance, which took place in September, the host kept the conversation light and even playfully ran his fingers through the then-presidential candidate's hair, saying, "Donald, I want to ask you because the next time I see you, you could be the president of the United States. I just wanted to know if there's something we could do that's not presidential really or something that we can do now that we're both civilians."
