President Donald Trump talked up his achievements, whether factual or not, and assailed his critics in a fiery, wide-ranging rally in South Carolina Monday. Trump was ostensibly appearing at a high school gymnasium in West Columbia to stump for incumbent South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster. However, his backing of the Republican took a backseat for much of his 45-minute speech.
Among the targets of his attacks Monday were late night talk-show hosts, Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert.
Continuing his war of words with Fallon, Trump said the host of The Tonight Show looks like a lost soul. Fallon last week had discussed an interview he did with Trump prior to the 2016 election when he was widely criticized for his softball approach and, in particular, his playful ruffling of the then-candidates hair.
Did you see Jimmy Fallon? Trump asked during the rally to loud boos from those in attendance. The guy screws up my hair, going back and forth, the president continued. He was disappointed to find out it was real. he couldn't believe it. Well that's one of the great things I got.

OP
"Lowlife" and "lost soul" are pretty good descriptions of Trump himself.
