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.

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.
