Fallon: Cruz Will Just Have To Imagine What the Oval Office Looks Like

‘Imagine 1775 — now, imagine 1776 — wait, what? That’s pretty similar to me — both of those dates, 1775 and 1776’

FALLON: “The big political story right now is Senator Ted Cruz, who yesterday became the first Republican candidate to announce that he is running for president. Yeah, and during his speech, Cruz seemed really focused on getting the crowd to use their imaginations. Check this out, watch.”
CRUZ [video]: “Imagine a young married couple. Imagine a teenage boy. Imagine young people. Imagine another teenage boy. Imagine it’s 1775. Imagine it’s 1776. Imagine it was 1777. Imagine it’s 1933. Imagine it’s 1979. Imagine in 2017. Imagine. Imagine. Imagine. That would have seem unimaginable.”
FALLON: “Unimaginable. Imagine 1775. Now, imagine 1776. Wait, what? That’s pretty similar to me. Both of those dates. 1775 and 1776.
HIGGINS: “Their buckles were shinier?”
FALLON: “I don’t remember that was — yeah, something tells me Ted Cruz is just going to have to imagine what the Oval Office looks like.”
