Tracy Morgan Goes Back into Coma on ‘Tonight Show’ Because of Donald Trump’s Poll Numbers

By Kyle Dowling | Jan 19, 2016 11:30 AM EST

Comedian Tracy Morgan appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and admitted that due to Donald Trump's surging poll numbers, he's thinking about going back into his coma.

Morgan was famously involved in a horrific car accident back in 2014, one which left him in a (real-life) coma—unlike the one he want into on The Tonight Show—for some time and took the life of his friend, fellow comedian James "Jimmy Mack" McNair.

But judging from Morgan's Tonight Show appearance, he's ready to put the coma behind him.

Of course, the real-life coma, not the jokes about said coma.

In fact, he's famously made jokes about what happened to him on not only The Tonight Show but also back when he hosted Saturday Night Live and made a surprise appearance at the Emmy Awards.

"It must be weird," Fallon said to his former SNL castmate, adding, "Having this whole thing happen to you. The coma- you come out and everything's different." To which Morgan admitted that things are very different nowadays. "Donald Trump is leading in the polls," he said before slipping back into his (fake) coma.

"I'm going back..." he joked.

Luckily he didn't. Instead, he stayed on panel with Fallon to discuss his hatred of Star Wars, Creed and his weird, unconditional love for Barbra Streisand.

"Nobody acts better than Barbra Streisand. I wish we could have got married but it didn't work out. ... We had kids together, though."

If only that were true.
