Tracy Morgan Says Trump Shouldn't Be Criticized For His Handling Of The Pandemic In Bizarrely Sexual 'Today' Show Interview

Tracy Morgan hasn't earned his say-anything reputation in Hollywood because of his flawless, charming interviews.

You never know what will come out of the Saturday Night Live alums mouth.


During an appearance on The Today Show, Morgan made a series of bizarre claims that covered everything from his sexual habits, to testing his gorilla for viruses and even to forgiving President Trump for how he's handled the epidemic.

The interview truly has to be seen to be believed.

Morgan spoke of medical workers, calling them heroes, saying:

"They're my heroes. While we're running out of the burning building, the firemen are running in."

The comedian also made a point of standing up for President Donald Trump.

"Right now, we're struggling. People want to criticize the President, but imagine being the President of a country and your country got sick. So it's difficult for him. We all got to pull together as people now. Now is not the time for blame."


Of course, Morgan also insisted on telling people how he and his wife spend their time while quarantined.

"She's playing the young maiden whose grandfather was infected with [the virus]. And I'm the scientist who discovered the cure, and she'll do anything to save her grandfather's life. And I mean anything."

He also claimed to have gotten her pregnant three times in as many weeks, to the shock of Today host Hoda Kotb.

Reactions to Morgan's Today Show appearance fell all over the spectrum on Twitter.


Of course, the most common reaction was pure disbelief.



TV producers know exactly what they're doing when they put Tracy Morgan on a live broadcast.



This is an interview most of us will truly never forget.

Stay safe, Tracy Morgan!

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump by riffing off the presidential "Walk of Fame" Trump unveiled in the White House back in September, gifting us the "Presidential Walk of Fatigue" instead.

In September, Trump's assistant Margo Martin shared a video of a hallway filled with the portraits of former U.S. presidents.

Fulnecky instead wrote about what the Bible says about "traditional gender roles," arguing that to refer to them as "stereotypes" is "demonic."
